Six Sentence Sunday

My first offering for Six Sentence Sunday come from P-town Queen, which is coming to Champagne Books next June.


The hero, Marco, catches his first glimpse of the heroine:



Had you asked before the minute when the redhead walked past, I would have said the whole thunderbolt thing was a myth; that no man on earth had, to my knowledge and experience, ever been struck that way. I would have kept on believing that, too, but the redhead looked at me with these big brown eyes. Her hair was wavy and the sun played on it like you’d want to write a poem about it. And then she smiled this smile like she’d known me all my life and Jesus, God I was hit by it. The thunderbolt. No kidding.
