Sneaky peaky! Want to read the first 6 lines from Hide & Seek? #sixsunday
And just to get you start, here are the first 6 lines. No one outside of my editor and beta readers have seen this yet.
The strand of empty coastline stretched for miles before Lexi Shepherd. Clumps of sand kicked up as she ran barefoot at the surf’s edge, the hem of her gown trailing in the water. Private deck and promenade lights outlined her path on one side, while the moon guided her with a stream of ethereal illumination on the other.
The ocean’s roar reverberated as waves crashed at her feet, sending sea spray into the air. Lexi slowed her pace upon reaching the pier, leaned against a thick pylon and inhaled the scent of coffee and tobacco.
“Do you have it?”
Does she have what? Any ideas? And who asked the question? Inquiring minds want to know? You’ll learn all about it March 1, 2012!
Oooo, ready for more. Great six.
OMG! Love this start – very strong & powerful 🙂 And that cover is awesome
Thats a great sneak peak. I want more. Immediately.
Ooo! This six is such a tease! Totally draws me in and makes me want to read on. Sigh! I have to wait until March to find out? Torture-ess! Hehe! 🙂
Very poetic. Can’t wait to get my hands on this one. 🙂
what a yummy scene you’ve set.
very refreshing – can feel the ocean spray – who said that??
Thanks all! 🙂 SOO glad you like it! 🙂
Oh, yes, I’m intrigued now. Who’d be drinking coffee on the beach, waiting on a chick in a floor-length gown and bare feet to bring him (or her?) some mysterious thingamadoozie? Am hooked!
The last line is reminiscent of Marathon Man…”Is it safe?”–when the innocuous collides with the sinister.
Fantastic six! Thank you.
Very intriguing! More, please. 🙂
Great description and nice hook with the final line.
I’m so behind visiting everyone from yesterday. You already know my thoughts in this one. 😛
Oooh, I wonder what “it” is!
