Six Sentence Sunday–3/18 Only Scandal Will Do

Welcome back to Six Sentence Sunday!  Thanks once again to everyone for your great support each week.  I do appreciate your comments, so keep them coming.  I also look forward to visiting your sites and reading your wonderful snippets.

Today I’m continuing with another six sentences  from Only Scandal Will Do.  If you want to read the section just before this snippet, check out my post from yesterday.

The masked man has purchased a woman in a brothel auction and has come to claim his prize.  His “slave” however, continues to insist there has been a mistake.  He has managed to turn the tables on the “lady” and call her virtue into question.  Now she’s put some distance–and a chair– between them.  While evading the man’s advances, Kat asserts that her brother (Jack) is the Earl of Manning.  The man taunts her with the fact that he knows the earl and he’s never mentioned a sister.

“Jack?” The man’s eyes gleamed. “But surely Manning’s name is William Fitzwilliam.”

Katarina stopped. “Uncle William? You knew Uncle William?”

And just what is he to make of this response?

If you’d like to read more about Kat’s plight, check out my posts from January at Sweet Saturday Sample and February here at SSS.  Be sure to come back next week for another six sentence installment.

Thanks once more for visiting Six Sentence Sunday.  Click the SSS to try out more author snippets.  You’ll be glad you did!
