Six Sentence Sunday


For Six Sentence Sunday here's another excerpt from my newly released 'His Leading Lady'.

To save her twin sister's career, Jess is pretending to be Lora who's gone missing. She's spent the evening with Kyle Drummond, the director of Lora's new show in the West End.  Although she’s worried about how the evening will end, she invites him into Lora’s apartment, then feels like kicking herself.  Now read on!


An amused look flashed across Kyle’s face.  “What man could resist such an invitation?  But no, tonight I really must resist, so I’ll see you at nine thirty tomorrow.”
 
Jess knew the feeling sweeping through her should be one of relief, and that she should say a casual goodnight to him and open the apartment door. 

The look in his dark eyes sent waves of heat rising inside her and she couldn’t move, not even when he put his hands on her arms and started to lower his head.  A warning bell shrilled in her mind but by then Kyle’s mouth was against hers and it was too late.

'His Leading Lady' now available as e-book and paperback from www.whiskeycreekpress.com or from the Kindle store at Amazon http://amzn.to/opp1ky - two 5* reviews after just one day at Amazon!

    Love it! She's gotten herself into a bit of a pickle, hasn't she?

    The torn feelings are great characterization! Looking forward to more.

    Uh-oh, Sarah's right, she is in a bit of a pickle. But hey, she's getting a snog from a handsome guy, it could be worse.

    This doesn't seem like an entirely bad turn of events to me.

    Thank you all for your comments, so glad you approve of the way things are going for Jess - even though it DOES lead to some complications in the future for her! More next week!
    (or you can always buy the book - see left side panel for details!) :-)

    My first reflex was a long, drawn-out "Mmmmm." Good job.

    Jess is caught in a trap she's created, but what luck to be there with a man like Kyle.

    Thanks, Joanne and Jen, hope you enjoy it!

    Agree, Suzie and Ana, I'd swap places with her any day for a smooch with Kyle ;-)

    Hi,

    I'm going to stop reading snippets from His Leading Lady, otherwise I'm going to know too much before I get to read the "signed" paperback.

    Fab snip, though. ;)

    I love the warning bell. It's something I've experienced myself, and I totally relate to it.

    Good tension!

    Well, this just sounds like it's going to turn out bad. Maybe Jess shouldn't have posed as her twin. An intriguing six though! :)

    That's a problem with being a twin. Nice snippet

    Ooo what a scene... so wanted to read on! I fear my to-read list might topple over, but who cares! This is so going on it :) I want to know what happens after that kiss :) Fab six

    LOL Francine, this is only in one of the early chapters, so you'll have plenty more to read!

    Rebecca, I think we're all heard that warning bell at times!

    Jessica and Sassy - posing as one's twin can be fraught with problems one never anticipated!

    Melynda - thanks! More next week!

    Well, as it seems she can't make her own mind up, maybe it's good that he made the decision for her?
