It's Sunday, so that means I have six sentences for you! Once again, here are Lucien and Samantha from Forever Freed:
My thinking suddenly crystalized. I loved Samantha and Olivia Sutton and needed them in my life. I had to try to be good enough for them and make this work. For the first time in more than a century, I allowed myself to have someone to love, something to hope for. I could swear, in the hollow of my chest, my heart started beating again.Lying there on the great-room floor at Orchard Hill, I came back to life.
I totally love this moment of epiphany for Lucien! And I hope you do too!

I'm blogging about first person point of view, including some excerpts from Forever Freed, over at the Black Rose Blog! I'd love it if some of you dropped by! *grins*
If you're celebrating it, I hope you have a great Father's Day! Thanks for reading and commenting, as always--I truly appreciate it!

A very tender moment when love brings him to life. Great six!
I like the way you handled the first POV. And Lucien in any POV is quite splendid. :)
I'm with Gem, Lucien really is quite splendid, and I breathed a smile, he has warmed my heart.
I'm a writer but I simply can't say with words how much I loved this!
