Six Sentence Sunday 8/7–As Long As You’re Mine

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. 

I do want to let my Six Sentence Sunday readers to know, if you don’t already, that my contemporary romance Almost Perfect has been accepted by Decadent Publishing for their 1Night Stand series!  I had an excerpt of it up on the blog a few days ago under an UPDATE post.  I invite you to check it out to see the story’s beginning.

 

This week, as promised, we see Rafe and Samantha’s meeting, or actually her first good view of him, from her POV.  Quite a different experience!  Enjoy!

 

When Samantha saw the tall, dark-haired young man heading towards her and her hostess, her first thought was relief that she was not going to have to marry a troll.  Rafael Beauregard was a handsome man she had to admit, though she was equally sure that he would never in a hundred years have been a man she would have chosen to marry.  The dark brows above equally dark eyes had an arch to them as he crossed the room, a sign she gauged to be a propensity towards mischief. 

I bet he’s turned some heads. Samantha eyed his easy gait and broad smile.  Just arrogant enough to tempt a woman to. . . her thought broke off and her face grew hot as she recalled vividly what that mouth had done to her in the night.

Those memories would make anyone blush!  Hope you enjoyed these six from As Long As You’re Mine. Next week we’ll probably have a little more of this meeting, before I send the novel out into the world to make its way.

For more great snippets please go to Six Sentence Sunday.  Or join in the fun next week with six of your own.  

Remember!  Today is the last day to enjoy my  “Christmas in July” free reads.  They are available under the Christmas in July page through tonight.

And if you liked my six, perhaps you’d like some of my published work as well.  Heart of Deception, is available for purchase from Books To Go Now!, and Hog Wild from New Dawning International Bookfair.  Both are available from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and All Romance Ebooks.

    Love the voice and the six, especially as she has to curb her own line of thought at the end. 🙂
