Set Up: This excerpt follows shortly after my last post on this story. Alex rescued Mattie from a storm, and now they are alone in a little cottage. Mattie is incredibly cold, and her gown is soaked. Last time, he gave her his cloak, but is still suggesting that she remove her gown.

My Six (This is in Mattie's POV, and Alex speaks first.):
"I will not look when you unclothe." When she crossed her arms in response, he shook his head. "Or, we could wait until you catch a fever, then I will have to remove your clothing for you. Have you forgotten you were already ill today?"
"You wouldn't," she said, but, of course, she knew he would. To make his point, he let his gaze drift down her body.

Genteel and sexy. Delightful six. Thanks.
Awesome, Lorraine! You are a master at painting scenes--and emotions. Great tension. :-)
Have you found any website to replace SSS?
He's got her, right where he wants her??? Does he even realize that's where he wants her? Fabulous. Oh, and I love the new look, very nice.
Great six! His comments and actions made me smile.
Uh, yes, point made for sure! Great six, Lorraine.
Smoldering, loved it!
I love the way he makes his point. This is an intriguing project, Lorraine. Looking forward to reading more.
There got to be some way he can convince her.
Yes, let your eyes do the talking, Alex. Nice!
A really excellent excerpt, even though we can see where this is (probably) going, we KNOW we'll enjoy the trip! I want to read more for sure :-)
Ahhh, a "practical" hero.
Very nice excerpt. It's going to be a great story.
btw, I love how you've redecorated...
I think she'll have to give in soon... SSS is almost finished! LOL
Thanks, Sarah! He's not making her inner conflict any easier, is he?
Thanks, Joyce! It is starting to get a little charged, isn't it? It heats up a bit more before they get cottage. ;)
Aw, thanks, Charmaine!
Thank you so much, Teresa! You've made my day!
As for SSS - no I haven't. I signed up for Skye Warren's list, but I'm also interested in seeing what else is out there. Have you found something else?
LOL - no, I'm not sure he realizes it yet.
And, thank you! I've been having fun re-vamping my site.
:) Thanks, Jess!
LOL - yes! Thanks, Kate.

Haha! Yes, I think he's doing that.
LOL. Thanks, Veronica!
Yes - so practical. LOL. Thanks, Suzanne.
And, I've had a lot of fun "redecorating" as you say - so I'm glad it looks okay. ;)
LOL. Yes!
And, thanks! I've been wanting a "new look" for a while, and decided to play over Christmas holiday!
I like where this is going...me thinks something hot and steamy to follow. Nice six!
