This week, from L. A. Witt, six sentences from my recently released erotic suspense novel, Trust Me, which is the sequel to Cover Me:
Want to play along? It’s fun and easy!
The club was swankier than most places in this area. It was a known hangout for dealers, pimps, and anyone else who could afford a velvet-rope night in this chain link and razor wire neighborhood. Above the tables, top shelf liquor flowed. Below it, stacks of bills and bags of white powder changed hands. With the right combination of cash and a wink, a waitress could be compelled to meet a customer in the restroom or the alley behind the club. The place was all dressed up and pretty, but that illusion was only skin deep.
