Playing Lucky 7

wb051417The clever Rhenna Morgan pulled a sneak attack and tagged me in The Lucky 7 game. Now one of her heroes must agree to appear on one of my Cocky Confessions interviews!

 

The rules:

  • Go to page 7 or 77 in your current WIP.
  • Go to line 7
  • Post on your blog the next 7 sentence or 7 lines—as they are!
  • Tag 7 people and do the same
  • Those who don’t blog may post on Facebook.

This 7 is from page seven of Game On! – an erotic novella I’m close to completing.

Heath let out a low whistle and offered her his beach chair, then dropped cross-legged on the sand.

Dugan popped a cool one and handed it to her. “Sorry, Jordan. I didn’t see you guys. Heath and I had been throwing passes on the fly. I’d just turned and fired. Then he turned to her friend GiGi, spouting his usual come on lines.

Heath had caught Dugan’s eyebrow raise after the flubbed pass. The dog―make that hound.

The poor souls I’m tagging:

Game On! A cold fish #8Sunday

Game On! is a short story I’m serving up on Weekend Writing Warriors for #8Sunday.

A semi-pro football player meets a reserved teacher who intrigues him with an offer of a different type of game. In last week’s 8 Heath called Jordan darlin when she asked if he was from the South. Her adverse reaction stunned him. In this week’s snippet they have left the beach and are back at their vehicles where their two friends are scheduling to meet later…

The word darling had sent Jordan into fight or flight mode. Her gut reaction to the endearment proved she wasn’t completely over being burned by Richard. If she hadn’t been so gullible, she wouldn’t have become news fodder as a business man’s plaything. She’d lost her self-esteem, ability to trust, and nearly her livelihood.

Heath’s southern pronunciation of the word sounded sexy and he might have asked her out if she hadn’t sudden turned into a cold fish.

Gigi and Dugan scheduled their later rendezvous while Jordan gazed at Heath, her sunglasses concealing her apprehension.

“We could tag along, if you’re interested,” he said with his hand lingering on the top of the convertible’s door.

“Thanks, but – maybe I’ll see you down at the beach sometime,” she said, offering a reserved smile.
