Introduction to these sentences: This excerpt follows directly after my last SSS post. Driving on country roads for the first time, Annie loses control of her truck and drives into a ditch. Quinn sees her accident, so he stops to help. Both Annie and her truck are fine, but when she tries to get out of the truck, her door hits the steep slope of the ditch. She can't open the door wide enough to squeeze through - she's trapped. Quinn has just told her he'll pull her truck out of the ditch, and Annie has decided she wants out of the truck first. Quinn's suggested she crawl through the window, assuring her he'll make sure she doesn't fall. Last time, when her foot gets caught on something, Annie looks down and realizes that her position, crawling on the seat toward him, is displaying her cleavage to Quinn.
Here are the six:
Her hand flew to her chest to clutch her shirt closed - albeit belatedly - as she kicked her foot to free it. When the passenger side seatbelt flung against the far door with a clunk, Annie spared a glance at Quinn. His gaze fixed on hers, as if he was struggling not to look lower. His brown eyes were darker than a moment ago and he was grinning - yep, he'd seen straight down her shirt. Some part of her was immensely relieved she'd grabbed her lacy bra that morning instead of the frayed sports one she usually wore.
The other part wished she'd worn a turtleneck.
Annie isn't out of the truck yet! I think I'll post more excerpts from this scene over the next couple of Sundays, at least until Annie has two feet on the ground!

Fun 6! Glad she had the lace on.
Cute! But a turtleneck wouldn't be any fun.
LOL A great six! Sexual tension already. :)
LOL! As my grandmother always said, make sure you always have on clean undergarments in case you get in a wreck. I never understood why I'd care. Now I do! Looking forward to more. ;)
This made me laugh -- the last line is perfect. And I love that he's struggling not to look. LOL
Thanks, Kylie! :)
I agree, Ruthie, no fun at all. :)
Thanks, Jessica! :)
Aww, he was kind enough to stop and help -- the guy earned his little peek. :) You've done a great job of making us like both characters.
LOL! Yes, my grandmother said the same thing.
Thanks, Donna! :)
Thanks, Stephanie! That is great to hear! :)
I love her mixed feelings about the eyeful she just gave him! Well done as always Lorraine.
Lol! What fun!
Thank you, Kate! :)
Thanks, Lisa! :)
lol just goes to show, always wear the good bra!
LOL! True - you never know what the day will bring. :)
That was really cute! Love his grin. I'll be back next week!
Thanks, Lila! :)
Teehee! What woman doesn't understand what it's like to inadvertently flash her cleavage? Great fun!
LOL :)
Lorraine! This is adorable and absolutely cute. I will read this story!
She's got something he wants and he's rescuing her- sounds like the perfect set-up! Very nice six.
I love her thought process :) Great six!
Sex rears it's lovely head despite an accident. Good writing.
Thank you so much, Carrie! :) I appreciate it!
LOL. Thanks, Kate!
Thanks, Corinne! :)
Yep. LOL. Thanks, Charmaine!
*sigh* Nothing this interesting has ever happened to me when I've introduced my truck to the local ditches. Very nice 6.
LOL - me neither! But, that's why we write, right?
Mama always said wear lacy underwear in case you get into an accident and have the opportunity to be rescued by a sexy hunk. Or she should have said that! Enjoyed your six.
Love it! The conflicted emotion about the bras is just classic. Can't wait to read more!
Intriguing!
Sexy and funny. Great job!
Fun 6, I love how in the midst of this she becomes acutely aware of what's she's doing and him struggling not to look, but obviously enjoyed it. Can't wait to see where this goes...
A woman is always aware of her cleavage, even amidst an accident! It's hilarious but true! Well done. :)
Love this! I laughed out loud at the last 2 sentences.
can relate to the bra line - except I usually don't wear one....I like these folks
Oh, Lorraine. You made me laugh. This weeks' Six is priceless. Soooo good!
LOL. Thanks, Cara!
Thanks, Ann! :)
Thanks!
Thank you, A.S.!
Tee hee. Thanks, Angela.
LOL. Thanks, Candice! :)
Tee hee. Thanks, Paula! :D
That would have been an interesting twist! :) Thanks, Sue.
That's so wonderful to hear! Thank you, Silver! :)
I just love Annie's thoughts! I would have been happy to have the lacy bra on as well, but the turtleneck thought cracked me up!
I'm sorry if this is a duplicate comment. I thought I'd commented but my computer restarted itself and I can't remember if it had gone through or not. (That kind of day, lol). Anyway, I love how he's trying not to look but he's grinning because he already got an eyeful. Fabulous characterization, and just plain FUNNY! ;c)
Thanks, Chantel!
Thank you, Sarah! You've made me smile! :)
Awkward way to meet someone.
so much fun! I bet his grin was something to be seen. I'll be back, I want to know what happens next.
Yay for lacy bras! At least she has the right lingerie for this very intriguing man LOL. I am so enjoying this story, great six!
Love it, Lorraine! This just keeps getting better and better! I loved the quick rethink--the lacy bra instead of the "frayed" sports bra! Who can't relate to the idea of that? :-) !
Cute six! Love his grin.
hahaha! I love it. Very cute.
True - Annie's life never goes quite the way she'd wish. LOL
Thank you, SJ! I'm glad! :)
LOL. Thanks, Veronica!
LOL. Thanks, Teresa! :)
Thanks, Patricia! :)
Thank you, Joanne! :)
Oh, goodie! *rubbing hands together in glee* So glad you're going to show us the whole scene! I love both the hero and the heroine in this. YOu have hooked me just with the few sentences I've read the past few weeks. They are both completely sympathetic characters and the hero is sexy as hell. Great work here!
Ohhh… I love this! Yes, definitely keep the cleavage scene coming!!! It's hot and we don't want it to stop!! LOL Great 6!
Poor Annie! Love her wry humor.
Great six, Lorraine! I love your voice and style:-)
The more I read about Annie, the more I like her! :)
Wonderful six! I could picture the scene as clear as day, feel her embarrassment. Plus, it made me smile - in an entirely sympathetic way!
Thank you so much! And thanks for the shout out on Twitter. :)
LOL. Thanks, LJ! :)
Thanks, Cate! :)
Thanks, Ursula! What a lovely compliment.
Thanks, Sarah! :)
Thank you, Karyn! :)
If she was wearing a turtleneck she'd be even hotter under the collar. You can't really blame Quinn for copping an eyeful, bless him. Nice six.
Listen, he's pulling her truck outta the ditch, the least she can do is give him a looksee. LOL!
LOL! Love it!! She has a great sense of humor!
LOL, great emotion and humor! Thanks for sharing. :)
I love moments like this--shows both of the characters and uses great humor.
Very cute! and Quinn's being a gentleman for not commenting. :)
LOL! Her humor is great here :)
LOL. Yes, you are right. ;)
LOL - love your perspective! ;)
Thanks, Jennifer! :)
Thanks, Joya! :)
Thank you, JM! :)
Haha, true! Thank, Dianne!
Thank you, Melynda! :)
Quinn's reaction is so *guy*. Love it!
Love her internal conflict, and described so neatly in wardrobe terms. Well done!
Very fun six!
Very cute! I would be relieved to have the lacy number on too! Super six!
I loved her conflicting wishes - gratitude for lace, desperation for a turtleneck. LOL Great six, Lorraine. :)
Even in a tense situation, men can still grab an eyefull. LOL Great six
Oh no, the poor, poor girl! Loved your humour in this, Lorraine! Great job :)
I heard the seatbelt clunk against the opposite door. Great six... and fun, too.
As an erotic romance writer, my mind immediately began to explore the possibilities. Great six.
This is heating up nicely. Well done!
Lol, at least it was clean underwear. :-P
