Six Sentence Sunday #28

Welcome back, Six Sentence Sunday fans!

With less than two weeks before About Last Night drops (June 11!), how could I resist another excerpt? Preorder links are off the Books page. Ahem. ;-)

Today, we have heroine Cath, who woke up alone in a strange bed and is trying to work out exactly how stupid she’s been. (Very.) She’s just realized that she knows whose bed it is.

Cath relaxed, relieved to know whose bed she’d slept in—and to confirm she’d only been sleeping. Even drunk, lonely, and out of her head, she wouldn’t have thrown herself at City. He wasn’t her type at all. When she fell, it was for the bad apples, the unapologetic scoundrels with funny stories, wiry bodies, and battered guitar cases. Not for guys like City. Not for men who were good.

Thanks for visiting! Other Six Sunday participants can be found here.

    Don’t relax yet, Cath! Trouble ahead!

    I love this phrase: “the unapologetic scoundrels with funny stories, wiry bodies, and battered guitar cases.”

    What a teaser. Have I mentioned I have About Last Night on Pre-Order?

  5. Karla Doyle says:

    Awesome teaser. Only 8 days til the new release by my math. Exciting!

  6. Uh oh, I think she’s relaxing a bit too soon. Undoubtedly some interesting developments ahead – terrific six!

  7. Fantastic bit of writing. Good luck with the release!!

  8. Kate Warren says:

    Well maybe it’s time she tried a good man. Nothing like a change of pace to spice things up. Good six, Ruthie!

  9. Mae Clair says:

    This is my first time visiting your blog. Congrats on the upcoming release! The six is great. Love this glimpse into her POV. Says so much about her in six short sentences and City too. Well done!

  10. Oh really? Something tells me that Cath may be about to surprise herself. Great six!

  11. Kate Meader says:

    She’s definitely overdue for a dalliance with someone nice (and solvent). Bye, bye unapologetic scoundrels. Your wiry bodies won’t be missed!

  12. Loved that scene, and the one coming up in his studio, hoo! *fans self*

  13. I love her skewed self-analysis here. LOL The whole dang book is great. :)

  14. I love the way you’ve described City so well by describing some other kind of guy. Nice job!

  15. Elin Gregory says:

    Very nice scene. The description of her usual type gives us a nice idea of what City is like.

  16. Great description! Love how safe she feels with him. Can’t wait to see how ‘stupid’ she’s been. ;)

  17. Siobhan Muir says:

    Hmm, he might not be as “good” as she thinks he is. Great six, Ruthie. :)
