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.

Another snippet from Only Scandal Will Do. I’m still in a teasing mood!  May I whet your appetite further? LOL

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.  While evading the man’s advances, they discover a missing bit of vital information that seems turn the tide of his opinion of her.  Then, in a moment of weakness, Katarina lets down her guard and things begin to heat up. She was reveling in a scorching kiss from the stranger who is bent on taking further liberties when reality crashes back, safe haven becoming a trap she too easily falls into.  She makes a last-ditch attempt to free herself.

“But I see you are still reluctant. Come, let me help you forget your troubles once more.”

With a cry of “Nooooo,”  she scrambled off the bed, making for the door, praying wildly that it was unlocked.  He snared her in one arm, pulled her back to the bed and threw himself down on her.

“You are the most spirited lady I have ever had the pleasure of seducing,” he said, gathering her into his arms. “If I wasn’t afraid of yet another scandal, my dear, I would set you up as my mistress and we could play these delicious games to our hearts’ delight.”

My Sweet Saturday Sample and Six Sentence Sunday posts from January through April here at on my blog can catch you up to what’s been going on in the story.  Be sure to come back next week for another six sentence installment on SSS.

    Love this! You let us know right off–it’s not just scandal *she* doesn’t want, but he doesn’t want it either! Great twist, because we all know he’s in for a BIG surprise once he’s finally convinced of her identity! Great six. Lots of tension and what a sexy (rake) hero.
