Six Sentence Sunday #7

Greetings, sixers! As promised, another excerpt from my evil twin Cara's upcoming romantica release, Curio (out this Wednesday), aka "the Parisian man-whore book".

I slid my hand back to feel his damp hair, the heat of his neck. He cocked his head, the kiss still closed-mouth but promising more, soon.

I let myself imagine the acts he’d mentioned doing with others, and though they’d thrilled me before, now I couldn’t picture such things. In this moment he was my cautious first date, my maybe-a-boyfriend. He was no other woman’s, and he’d never kissed any girl and made her feel this way before. His body was far from innocent, but I fantasized that his heart was as untouched and virginal as mine.

Thanks for stopping by! Now head here to check out all the other Six Sentence Sunday excerpts this week.

    OMJC, the emotion in this is INSANE! Such trepidation, such uncertainty, such desire. Sweet Oz, I can't wait for this book!

    Love the mix of innocent and potentially raunchy.

    Great contrast between what she imagines and what is true. As always, well-written. You do know how to spin a tale.

    I love her naive imaginings of him. It's what's needed to keep her psyche intact, I think.

    I really feel for her, wanting what she thinks she can't have :-)

    Oh, sigh. That's all I've got. Just *sigh.* Looking forward to release day so I can have Didier all over again. (And what's-her-name, too, of course.)
