This is an exciting Six Sentence Sunday for me because I’m about to celebrate my second release in a month, this time for my debut novel-length paranormal romance, Forever Freed! This story is about a reclusive vampire who falls in love with the woman he planned to kill and her young daughter. In this scene, something bad has just happened, and 5-year-old Ollie reveals to hero Lucien Demarco that she knows something’s up with him:
“Ollie, we need to talk.”“I won’t tell anyone, I promise,” she said, her voice guileless and blue eyes serious.I frowned. “You won’t tell anyone what?”“About what you are.”“What…”—I gently pulled her arm so she was facing me, then knelt down in front of her—“Ollie, what do you think I am?”
My, my, my, what do you think she says??? You know, there’s one way to find out! Forever Freed officially releases on May 20, but the print edition is already available to order… *grins*
If you need further encouragement, check out this incredible review Forever Freed already received!
So, thanks for stopping in again and for commenting (hint, hint!). Be sure to check out the other Sixers’ comments and follow the #sixsunday hashtag on twitter!
Thanks for reading,
Laura

Hmm, wonder if she knows the truth or think he's something/somebody else.
Congrats on your imminent release!
Always great when children know secrets. ;) Fabulous six! Congrats on your upcoming release! I love the trading card too.
My imagination took off on that snippet. I definitely want to know "what he is" and what Ollie thinks he is. Great six!
Fantastic snippet! Congrats on the release :-)
Congrats on the release! And this 6 is great! Does he - deep down - want her to know? Does she even really know? Hope we find out soon!
Yeah! Congratulations on the release!
Love this - very sweet - especially from a vampire!
Great six. Ollie is a scene stealer.
Trying to fool children is more of a mind game on the adults. Lovely. Want to know if she gets it right.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting everybody! @Patricia--you're so right! @Graylin--it's true, you gotta wonder who REALLY has the power in this relationship!
Oh, man, I love Lucien and Ollie together! :)

Aww she's so cute!!! Kids have a knack for knowing when something's not quite right. Great six!
You can hear the innocence in Ollie's voice. Love it
Sweet little kid talking to a vampire makes me all kinds of nervous. Hope he's a good guy.
This takes mistaken identity to a new level! Fun six.
Great six and love how the innocence of a child adds to the scene.
