Happy Sunday everyone! I had two new books to choose from for today, but since I have blog tour posts up this weekend for Seduced by the Vampire King, I decided to go with another six from Her Forbidden Hero. Here, the heroine has asked the hero why he's been giving her the silent treatment...
The words died in Alyssa’s throat as Marco abruptly turned, stalked across the space behind the bar, and flipped up the counter in front of her. She retreated as he stepped through the gap, and then he grasped her by the arms—firm enough that she knew he had her, but not enough to hurt.“How many times did you get grabbed out there tonight?” He pushed her back one step, then another, until her spine came flush against something unyielding. He braced his hands on the wall above her shoulders and towered over her, six-foot-three-inches of pissed-off versus five-foot-four-inches of turned-on. “How many guys laid their fucking paws on you?”

Okay, I love this " six-foot-three-inches of pissed-off versus five-foot-four-inches of turned-on." Just love it.
Oh, the passion and tension are so thick. YUM.
Ooh, I love a jealous alpha hero! If I wasn't already sold on Marco, this snippet would've done it!

Hmmm, me thinks he's jealous. *nods* Great sexy six.
Sexy alpha! Awesome six. Can't wait to read this book. :)
I just love when they go all alpha like that. Is she going to melt or put him in his place? Can't wait to find out!
"six-foot-three-inches of pissed-off versus five-foot-four-inches of turned-on."
Can you say best line ever? Love it!
Hmm, a big, awesomely sexy, jealous, possessive man. Yeah, I love it!
Oo, the jealous type. But it's so sexy on him. :)
I like the fact that despite the fact that this is obviously a tense and emotional scene, you managed to write it smoothly, and kept the rhythm of your prose nice and study. Excellent job!
"Paws" -- I like how he described the "other" men with paws. He doesn't seem happy, but I suspect she'll turn things around. Love your writing. Good six!
"six-foot-three-inches of pissed-off versus five-foot-four-inches of turned-on" -- Awesome turn of phrase, Laura! I want to read this one; I've been hearing raves. Congrats on both new releases!
He's certainly fierce! Loved the tension and emotion in the scene - great six!
Thanks for all the fun comments, guys! Glad so many of you mentioned that line. It's one of my faves! :D
"...six-foot-three-inches of pissed-off versus five-foot-four-inches of turned-on."
Oh, Laura! This line is just made of awesome sauce! I love it. And the snippet. Yeah...I bet we all know where this is goin'. ;-) Terrific six this week.
Very, very sexy. On my list!
Woohoo! Thanks guys! :)
Intense! More please!
