Six Sentence Sunday - Walking The Edge: Snippet #10

Hey beautiful people!

It's Sunday again... *head thump* Did we blink and the week went by? How come it's already the day for Six Sentence Sunday? Okay, I know I sound like a broken record every week, but you'll agree time does fly.

It seems like yesterday that I started sharing snippets of this unusual meeting scene in Walking The Edge (Corpus Brides: Book One) between the heroine Amelia and the hero, Gerard. But it's actually been a few consecutive weeks now...

Last week, Amelia braved danger in the face when she stood up to Gerard who had a gun aimed at her. He didn't take her sassy manner too well, telling her he'd do a lot more than point a gun at her if she didn't start giving him answers.

Like what, she wonders? Read on to see what happens next - is Amelia a daredevil, or is she unaware of the true danger a man like Gerard represents?


'... Her skin felt his heat seep into hers from the front, the cold humidity of the bricks numbing her back and buttocks - the way he leaned on her, she could feel the bulge in the front of his pants. Lord, he's getting hard!

"Danger thrills you," she said softly.

In reply, he cocked the gun and moved it closer to her face, barely an inch away. She could lick the barrel if she wanted. An image of her tongue on his bulging hard-on flitted through her mind. ...'


Catch more snazzy SSS snippets here. :)

From Mauritius with love,

Wow, she's pretty tough! This line was a great contrast: 'Her skin felt his heat seep into hers from the front, the cold humidity of the bricks numbing her back and buttocks'. Nice six

Wow, very evocative snippet. Sexy, dangerous. I love it.

Yup Liz, she's one tough chick! Her daring ways amazed even me when I was writing her. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Thanks Jennifer! She's tough, all right. :)

Thanks Alix!

Thank you Joanne!

Gem Sivad said...

Uhh, I think she's focusing on the wrong gun. Love her character.

Lisa Fox said...

She is a very excellent and tough lady!

sue said...

guns and cocks - interesting combo

Zee Monodee said...

Lol Gem - Gerard happens to be a very sexy cop, so can't really fault her for thinking of the wrong gun *grin*

Zee Monodee said...

Oh yes, she is, Lisa! :)

Zee Monodee said...

Lol Sue - that combination was totally unplanned when I set out to write this. Somehow, I just found Amelia thinking this when I was writing. She took me by surprise in this scene. :)

Cate Masters said...

I think danger thrills her too! Love that she's taking control of the situation.

Jessica E. Subject said...

They both seem to be excited by the danger. Great six! I need to read more.

Piper said...

I guess there's a thin line between danger and very turned on. Wonderful six! I love a tough heroine.

Jessica Knauss said...

This interrogation is taking an unusual turn!

Abby Hayes said...

Great six! Love the play between the gun and his hard-on! Sounds like a great book :)

Eve Edwards said...

I think they're both getting excited by the danger! Great six!

Wonder what would happen to him if she did lick his gun

Bree said...

A danger hard-on! Yummy!! Sexy six!

Loved the underlying danger with the building sexual tension! Well done!

Sandy Nachlinger said...

Love the connection between the bun and the bulge in his pants. Great comparison! Either one could go off at any moment!

Well I'm certainly awake now.

Great snippet Zee!!

Zee Monodee said...

Lol Cate, I think you're right. Danger is a potent aphrodisiac for these two. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Thanks Jessica! I'll have more next week, the conclusion of this scene actually. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Exactly, Piper - very fine line indeed. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Lol Jessica - nothing quite goes as planned in this story... and this series, for that matter. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Thanks Abby! I liked the parallel between the two as well. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Yup Eve, the danger is turning them on.

Zee Monodee said...

Lindsay! Naughty you! :)

Zee Monodee said...

Lol Bree!

Zee Monodee said...

Thanks Dee!

Zee Monodee said...

Thanks Kathleen. I loved how the sexual tension built too in there. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Lol Sandy - yes, either one could go off at any moment. Let's just hope it's not the gun. :)

Zee Monodee said...

Lol Layna - this was better than coffee? *grin*

Sass and smarts. I like it! Great six!
