Happy Mother's Day! Between a Mother's Day event and some work I have to do for the day job, I won't be commenting much today. I'll be back next week though!
Here's another tidbit from the contemporary I'm shopping, By Hook or By Crook. Ivy and Joe (an heiress and her security consultant) had a romantic dalliance while stranded in a mountain cabin during a blizzard. Now that they're free, Ivy is trying to put the genie back in the bottle again:
"Now that
we're back in the real world, I think we ought to try to put things between us
on a more professional footing once again," Ivy said.
"The
real world? I didn't know we'd ever left it. Tell me about this distinction.
Why is this motel parking lot the real world, but a cabin an hour or so away magically isn't?" His jaw had that pugnacious angle that it took on when he made
her life difficult, and Ivy sighed.

Great six! Makes the reader curious to know Ivy's answer.
Nice, Linda. Somehow, I don't think that genie is going to cooperate. Not if Joe has anything to do with it. ;-)
Lol Gotta love those pugnacious men! Nice six Linda.
Pugnacious! I. Love. That. Description. Well done, Linda! Not fair you have to work on Mother's Day but thanks for sharing this six with us. Have a great day.
Great six! I like the sound of a far away cabin. :)
I think that's a very valid question! Great six!
Poor Ivy, she tries so hard to maintain her fiction!
LOL -- he's got a great point! Nice six. :)
I adore you're last line and can all but see steam starting to curl out of her ears. Nice job.
