Welcome to Six Sentence Sunday, the day in which I join a couple hundred other authors to showcase fun six sentence long snippets on their blogs.

We’re back to a contemporary erotic romance this week, currently titled No Strings Attached (until I think of another title that fits. I hate titles…), which is planned for a theme call due in August.

A little background… Ashlynn and Ethan are married, (they got married in the first chapter of the book, actually) though they got married for the stability that military life gives them and not for love. It’s about convenience for them. Ashlynn just admitted to Ethan that she’s in love with him, though she hadn’t meant to do that. It sort of slipped….

“Ash…” His voice was soft, full of pity she didn’t want to hear from him. Of course he would pity her. He didn’t love her; he didn’t really need her. The best she could claim is that he cared about her… as a friend. But for her, it was so much more because somewhere between the first time they had sex and now, three months after their wedding, she’d fallen in love with him.

“Don’t.” She put up a hand and shook her head vehemently. “Just don’t.”

For those new to Six Sentence Sunday, you can play too:

1) pick a book– a current Work in Progress, contracted work or even something readers can buy if you’re published

2) pick six sentences from anywhere in the story

3) post them on Sunday (hence the Six Sentence SUNDAY)
