Lara headed toward the bar, and nearly collided with the bartender who glided from the opposite direction like a great white smelling fresh blood in the water.
Powerful shoulders the breadth of a two-by-four, a Flight Risk T-shirt pulled taut over toned abs and pecs, muscled legs that fed a pair of biker boots. And black jeans too snug to slip a wallet--or a condom--into the back pocket.
Lara jerked her focus upward. Eyes the color of ice chips flicked over her with the predatory awareness of a shark.
Holy heart-stopping Hannah, she thought, we're gonna need a bigger boat.

A shark without a condom -- Lara's in trouble!
Oh, I want a taste. Very descriptive. ;)
Love the description you played up here. More, por favor!
Love this story. Like the new look to the blog. I forgot to put my link up on the six sentence blog site but I did post 6 sentences.
That is a great description. And the new blog looks awesome!
Thanks for your kind comments about the new-look blog. Personally, I despise it. I guess it will grow on me. It will have to! The old blog is gone-gone-gone, baby, gone!
Liz ~ Of course, I will come visit you, anyway!
Oh, nice. And I love the title. I have to start adding some romantic suspense to my reading list.
