Welcome back to Six Sentence Sunday. My thanks again to those who visit me every week and those who are visiting for the first time. I do appreciate comments so please, let me know what you think of my six.
This week I thought I would move us forward a bit and let you see Rafael and Samantha’s “official” first meeting, from Rafe’s POV. Enjoy!
“Aunt Beatrice, would you introduce me to your charming guest?” He motioned to Samantha, whose jaw dropped at his audacity. “We have not been formally introduced.”
“Rafael!” Beatrice blushed in earnest now, apparently embarrassed at the thought of what had transpired under her roof last night.
Rafe just stood there, innocent eyes on her until she shook her head at her nephew and turned to Samantha. “Lady Samantha Easterling may I introduce my devil of a nephew, Rafael Clements Beauregard of Richmond, Virginia.
I think Aunt Beatrice has him pegged right! Hope you enjoyed these six from As Long As You’re Mine. Next week we’ll see this meeting from Samantha’s POV.
For more great snippets please go to Six Sentence Sunday. Or join in the fun next week with six of your own.
