Today's Six comes from HEART ACHE,
scheduled release January 24, 2012.
Nikolai is a vampire and Gabby is his heartmate,
the one female capable of filling the ache that's lingered in his chest for 400 years.
In this snippet, Gabby is sick and Nikolai being Nikolai stops by to bring her some soup.

“How are you feeling?” He stared into her bloodshot eyes, noting her red nose, and wild disarray of curls barely contained by a rubber band.
Did she have any idea how adorable she was?She coughed, sneezed … and farted. Her blush from earlier was nothing compared to the crimson she sported now.“Excuse me.”
Ohhh my God... that's hysterical. I'm still laughing, Morgan. I can hear Tom Hanks (a la 'A League of Their Own') now, "There's no FARTING in ROMANCE NOVELS!" Great 6!
ReplyDeleteNow that's funny.
ReplyDeleteOh, man, you gotta love being sick in front of the guy you think is so cute. Well done six, Morgan. :) And I second what Cara said! LOL
ReplyDeleteOh, man I feel for the poor girl! Nothing worse than looking your worst in front of the guy you lust after! This will be a good test for Nikolai! If he loves her this shouldn't matter :) Love the humor-- you did a great job with the setup (him thinking how adorable she looked despite being sick) for the punch line...
ReplyDeleteBwwahahaha! That's hilarious! Already I can tell that these are my type of characters. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteI love it! Nice little bit of humor -- and so true to life (even if it is a vampire story).
ReplyDeleteHilarious lol. Great 6 Morgan!
ReplyDeleteOMG Hilarious! Awesome six, Morgan!
