Six Sentence Sunday

Another contribution to the Six Sentence Sunday shenanigans...

This week, I'm taking one from Infinity Pools, my newest release from Amber Allure:

Jesus. Forty-eight hours ago, I was still in shock from my fiancé bailing on our wedding. Twenty-four hours ago, I was snowbound and stranded, wondering if I’d ever make it to Oahu. This morning, I was in bed with Derek.

And now?

Now this.

(If by chance you're interested in winning a copy of Infinity Pools and its prequel, Getting off the Ground, check out my Ridiculously Easy Contest(tm), answer a question, and you're entered. Winner will be drawn May 5, 2011.)

Want to play along? It’s fun and easy!
1. pick a project – a current WIP, contracted work or even something readers can buy if you’re published
2. pick six sentences
3. post ‘em on Sunday

    Great six. I'm totally hooked. Wondering what took place to get her to "now this" and wondering what "now this" is! Congrats on the release.

    I'd say that was one hell of a non-honeymoon. Now, I want to know the "now this"

    Sounds like she had a rough 48 hours. So are you going to tells "Now this". Or leave us hanging forever not knowing
