Annabelle is participating in the Six Sentences on Sunday Blog with an excerpt from Wicked Woman.
O’Dell was intrigued by this man looking lonely and lost and giving the whiskey more attention than her. Although that hadn’t been the case minutes before when she thought he’d devour her right there on the bar.The loneliness she had a cure for—even though this wrangler had some rough edges that needed rubbing off. Sex seemed to be the cure for any man’s pain. He’d a couple days’ worth of dark stubble and a scowl that would scare children. A shave and a few hours with O’Dell and her special skills would put him right.
I love your sense of language in this six. Lovely rhythm and emotion and sense of scene and character. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks. The next sentence is: Lonely she had a cure for but lost would take some doing.
