Lucky 7

The lovely Rach has tagged me for the Lucky 7 Meme and since I’ve been away for Easter, this is slightly late but…well….better late than never, right?

The deal is this:
Go to page 77 of your current MS/WIP
■Go to line 7
■Copy down the next 7 lines–sentences or paragraphs–and post them as they’re written. No cheating.
■Tag 7 authors
■Let them know

Now in my current WIP, I don’t have a page 77 since I haven’t written that far. So I’m going with Mr Sheikypants. I guess this is more than 7 lines/paragraphs whatever but I do like to end on a high note. 🙂

He did have a point. Anyway, what was the big deal? “My mother is lovely. She was a PA before they adopted me and—”

“You are adopted?”

Lily frowned at the interruption. “Yes. Is that a problem?”

Blue eyes flickered. “No.”

“But it bothers you?”

“No. I am…surprised.”

“About what?”

He ignored that. “Tell me more about your parents.”

Lily stared at him, hearing the edge of demand running through his voice. He didn’t look at her but tension had crept into the set of his shoulders, his knuckles white where they gripped the steering wheel. A seething, shivering tension that abruptly made her feel like she was in the car alone with a very powerful, very dangerous animal.

I need to tag people but since I’m late with this and no doubt everyone has already been tagged, I’ll do a blanket ‘if you haven’t done this before, considering yourself tagged’ thingy!

Hope everyone had a nice Easter!
