Six Sentence Sunday 11-14-10

         Just because I want to look at the unfinalized version of my squeeingly beautiful cover again...a six-sentence excerpt from Healing Hearts, coming in February from Carina Press:

           The viscount's gaze skewered her like a rapier as he took the decision out of her hands.
           “The show is over, madam--I’ve entertained you long enough.”
           His deep voice reached her across the windy bluff, affecting her as if he stood close beside her, his hand encircling her wrist and pulling her forward, the rich timbre resonating through her, as intoxicating as sherry. Her hunger flared.
           Emma took a gulp of salt-tinged air and emerged from concealment to face him.
           “We meet again, Miss Whiteside.”

I love viscounts, too. They do tend to be somewhat domineering, don't they?

You are such a great writer. Really. Love this snippet. How'd you get that six sentence sunday banner up? very cool. I need to bend your ear about twitter and some other things I need to embark on.

Thanks, Lex.

Jen -- Sorry we didn't have time to talk more yesterday. You're on Wordpress, so I'm not sure that works. On blogger, you can just add a picture and/or a link.

Love the cover! Can't wait to read it.

Jessica E. Subject said...

Oh, no. He said “The show is over, madam--I’ve entertained you long enough.”

I had a feeling he was about to show her another form of entertainment. ;)

Sorry if I worded it the wrong way.

Janet Lane Walters said...

Nice sentences. Rapier is good.

Taryn Kincaid said...

Thanks, all!

Jessica -- He'll show her another form of entertainment soon enough! (Although maybe not quite soon enough for either of them! But at the moment, Emma is spying on him, and Adam's calling her out of hiding.
(Stay tuned!)
