Six Sentence Sunday

Hello everyone! Today I’m participating in Six Sentence Sunday. It’s my first time doing this and I really hope you enjoy my little excerpt. Those are the first six sentences from my first published short story, “The Problem with Love Spells” which is included in Evernight Publishing’s “Indecent Encounters” Menage Anthology.




“Are you insane?” Windred’s intense blue eyes appeared larger than usual as she stared at Gretchen, with her mouth agape and a look of utter dismay on her face.

Gretchen shrugged, feigning innocence. “How was I supposed to know this was going to happen?”

Windred sat down at the kitchen table and put her hand to her forehead. “The thirty million warnings you’ve had in your lifetime should have been a red flag.”

PS: If you’re intrigued and want to read more, buy it here (Evernight Publishing) or here (Amazon.com).

    Congratulations on the publications. Those are nice six sentences.
    maybe feigning innocence is too much telling, but who am I to say when this is published.
