Here are six sentences from my upcoming Riva/Romance, FLIRTING WITH ITALIAN...
Her brain was apparently engaged, busy dealing with a bombardment of signals. The sun hot on her arms, her throat, her breasts. The sensuous sweep of the mouth hovering above her own, the scent of warm skin, leather…
The world seemed to have slowed down and it took forever for his lips to reach hers. Somewhere, deep inside her brain the word “…no…” was teetering on the brink and all she had to do was move her lips,say it,but her butter-soft mouth seemed to belong to someone else.
When it parted, it was not to protest; as his mouth found hers a tingle of something like recognition raced like wildfire through her blood, blotting out reason and her body, with nothing to guide it, softened, melted against him, murmured, “Yes…”
Coming soon!

Love the six. Now I want more LOL! Nice!
Had not heard of SSS but I really enjoyed yours. What a neat way to promote your story.
Sounds like a fun idea, Liz. And the book yanked me right in!
Saw that on the lovely Nic Marsh's blog and it seemed such a neat idea!
Coo-er, Liz, that's a book I've got to read. Coming soon, you say; how soon?
What a great idea. Six sentences it usually enough to tell whether you like a writer's voice too. Though I admit that, when browsing, I usually give a book a page.
It's a December release, Jenny. I don't have the Riva cover yet - keeping fingers crossed for another scorcher!
Content for making a love. I will check it out
Hi Anne! It's been too long. All work, work, work...
Thanks so much, Carrie. :)
Hi Kaelee - saw it on Nic Marsh's blog and was instantly hooked myself. (Check out her SSS for her Bollywood book!)
Welcome, Jeff!
What a great idea, have borrowed it for my blog and linked back to you.
Thanks so much, Cally!
OMG, you can't leave us hanging here! Not fair! :)
Welcome to SSS, Liz. Looking forward to reading more of your excerpts.
This sounds beautiful Liz, looking forward to reading more!
Hi Zee! I thought that was the purpose! Aren't you desperate to read the book now? I hope so. :)
It's a great idea - one I'm going to be having a lot of fun with. Thanks so much.
Thanks so much, Gemma. It was such a joy writng a book set in Italy.
Lol, true! You're wicked, you know that? :)
Six awesome sentences, Liz. I love it and I hope we can all read more soon!
Very lush and sensuous! Welcome to Six Sunday!
Thank so much, Lex!
It's on sale in December, Marlena - one for the stocking!
My work here is done, Zee. :)
Your Six sentences uncurled!
You had me wrapped in the haze you wrote:
and her body, with nothing to guide it, softened, melted against him, murmured, “Yes…”
WOW!
Beautifully written...I'm looking forward to December even though I'm not looking forward to snow. At least I can be stuck indoors with a terrific read. Great Six!
:) Christine ... Who'd have thought that six sentences could have such an impact!
That was really beautiful, Liz. Amazing how a kiss with the 'right' one can feel so familiar. :-)
Thanks so much Elaine and Carissa!
And Cally, you're welcome!
Liz, I'm so glad you found SSS via my blog, it's a great concept!
I'm making it a weekly feature on mine, so much fun!
Can't wait for 'Flirting with Italian.'
That snippet makes me want it NOW.
And that cover...oh my...stunning!
SSS - What a great idea!
I bet you hook some new fans with those six lines.
I love them!
Great fun!
Is it hot in here ...?
Bless you, Nic!
I hope so, Gail and Karen, fanning myself a little!
