And for this week's Six Sentence Sunday we return to Isola del Serrone with Sarah Gratton and Matteo di Serrone, who are spending the weekend at the vineyard at the start of harvest.
'I’ve been wanting to do this,’ he said as he backed her into a bay housing one of the barrels and kissed her, sliding his hands inside her t-shirt to unclasp her bra.
She leaned back over the gentle curve, sighing with pleasure as he took possession of her breasts. ‘Is this what is known as being had “over a barrel”?’
He shook his head, clearly not familiar with the expression.
‘At your mercy, my lord,’ she explained.
‘On the contrary, cara, I rather think that I am at yours.’

Ciao Liz:
Somehow I think a continental would have said ‘au contraire’ cara mia… : )
Ten more days to wait for “Flirting With Italian” to debut on the Kindle. l'attesa piĆ¹ lunga -- the longest wait.

I loved "playful", Christine. Exactly what was happening. They were playing, having a good time.
Matteo is multilingual, Vince, so maybe he would. :) I hope you find the long way worth it!
Thanks for the sizzle, Gulie. My favourite word!
Hi Jayel - thanks for dropping by. Glad you enjoyed the six.
Hi Alix! So glad you like the "voice" - I think it's the one thing that brings readers back time and time again.
Hi Sondrae - I wasn't sure that "over a barrel" was a phrase that would travel. Fingers crossed that I'm wrong!
Fantastic! Loved the 'over a barrel' quip. Great stuff!
Thanks, Gayle!
