Six Sentence Sunday - here you go! This is from my contemporary multicultural romance called The Fixer. The heroine is having a problem making up her mind.
She leaned forward, afraid that her demeanor had something to do with his behavior. She didn’t want to mess this up. She didn’t want to jump into bed with him, although that was a lie, she did, but she knew better. There was nothing good that could come from having sex with him, except maybe the best time she’d had in months. She put the snifter on the coffee table. “Maybe I should go.”
Love the give and take of her inner-battle. Sounds like a fun read!
ReplyDeletedecisions decisions ....
ReplyDeletenice struggle with herself, could feel it...
ReplyDeleteGood portrayal of her conflict. Well done!
ReplyDeleteGreat inner tension. I think she'll go.
ReplyDeleteGreat capturing of how she feels.
ReplyDeleteI like the zigzag, push-pull of opposing desires: you don't grey it out to ambivalence. I'm curious about this character and her backstory, as well as what comes next. Past, present and future in six lines.. not bad.
