Six Sentence Sunday 01/09




Welcome to Six Sentence Sunday! Last week we met Dominic Price, the hero of my work-in-progress, a reunion romance titled Midnight Heat.

This week, let's get inside his head as he meets up with Rebecca again, after three years apart.




She bent over the front of him and a piece of her hair slid free from the intricate knot at the back of her neck, lay like fire across her cheek. He wanted to reach out and skim his fingertips over it. One touch. One touch he wanted so damn badly his hands began to shake.

Dominic dragged in air to loosen the knots in his stomach and only succeeded in filling his lungs with her familiar scent.

Thanks,
