First, a quick update: Wow! My week spun out of control again. I know I've said this over and over for the last few weeks - so perhaps this is the "new" normal for me. (I hope not). This week, we made an offer on a house, which was accepted. We've accepted an offer on our condo. We've done the home inspection. I met with my crit group. I met with more lovely writerly friends to discuss social media. I met with my realtor and mortgage broker numerous times. Oh, and then there is my day job. Eep. On the upside, I think we're in a holding pattern now for a couple of weeks. So, I'm jumping at the opportunity to catch up on Six Sentence Sunday, read a book, and edit a Work in Progress. Yay!
To everyone who commented on my six last week, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Now, let's get to SSS - this is another snippet from my work in progress, SILVER LININGS. My previous posts from this WIP are here, where Parker has just walked into Billie's life again after being away for a decade.

Here are my six, which are taken shortly after last week's excerpt. This is in Billie's Point of View.
It was
humiliating to think that with one touch she had been ready for
Parker to kiss her - expecting it even. He hadn’t and Billie
was relieved... really. Nothing good would have come from that. God willing, he hadn't noticed how she'd held her breath when his fingers skimmed her cheek
and brushed that bit of fluff from her hair.
She just hadn’t been prepared for him to touch her. Next time things would be different.
