Six Sentence Sunday

Another excerpt from 'His Leading Lady.' Jess is posing as her twin sister, Lora. At the end of an evening with Kyle Drummond, the director of Lora's new show, they share a sizzling kiss and then Kyle leaves. (For anyone new to Six Sunday, please look back to my previous Sunday posts.)

As Jess went into the apartment, she caught sight of herself in the hallway mirror.

“Oh God,” she whispered as she brought both her hands up to her flushed cheeks.  For a few moments she couldn’t think straight.  All she could feel was Kyle’s mouth, his tongue, his whole body, and a quiver ran down to somewhere deep inside her.

In the next moment her eyes widened with horror.  How could she have let him kiss her like that? 

'His Leading Lady' is available this month at 99 cents, as part of Whiskey Creek Press's 9th birthday celebrations, with 9 books for 99 cents each. You can buy it from the WCP website at http://bit.ly/rkTX0h
