It’s blog hop time. Visit www.wewriwa.com where authors get together and share 8 sentences from a current work or a published book. It’s awesome time to get sneak peeks and to offer words of encouragement. Without further ado, you will find my 8 based on a current WIP. Last week my heroine held a gun to the hero’s head and caught him off guard. Enjoy!
“You’ll have to tell me where I’m going.” A reasonable tone should calm some of her nerves. He hoped.
A loud sniffle met his words. “Give me a second.” The gun didn’t waver. Seconds ticked into minutes.
His patience didn’t have minutes.
Tense snippet, great atmosphere!
Thanks Gemma
Definitely and interesting snippet – so short yet packed with so much tension. Nicely done.
Thx Susan 🙂
Very tense moment. I went back and reread last week’s. Both are well written, gives the right vibe for both characters. I love that he’s so calm, but not really. Well done!
I love hearing that Anne. Glad you’re enjoying it
So who’s manipulating whom? Interesting and very tense.
They’re both in a tight spot Aheila
Tense situation.
Great use of the 8’s and love this story. Love the last line. Well done, Michelle!
Thx JA, glad you enjoy
Succinct yet very powerful at the same time. Excellent excerpt, Michelle! 🙂
Thx Evelyn 🙂
Love the last line!
Shane has little patience Katya 😉
His patience didn’t have minutes. This line not only hooks me, it sets my expectations high for this. You are talented.
That was great, I’m hooked. Whats next.
LOL, you’ll have to see next week Jacy
She doesn’t know where she’s going, either? Uh-oh!
LOL, quite a predicament she’s in Sarah
Terrific short and powerful moment of what happens next to keep readers turning pages.
Music to my ears Charmaine 🙂
Love the tension you’ve created with such brevity.
Thx Millie 🙂
You’ve hooked me, Michelle. Fabulous tension. Well done.
Awesome SJ. Thx
Yes, he’s been more patient that I could ever be! Very interesting story, can’t wait to learn more about the person holding the gun. Great snippet!
Glad I’ve got your interest Veronica 😉
Love how he’s got the gun to his head, but he’s the one trying to be patient. Of course, he seems confident he can get it away from her…
Shane’s background will explain his reactions but that’s a reveal for later Caitlin ;0
Wow, so tense. Excellent use of the 8s.
Thank you Chelle
Intense!! Definitely need more! You tease 😛

I know I’m late, but I’m finally getting around. Wow! Great tension in this scene. I need more than 8, dammit!
LOL, thx Maggie.
