The Weekend Writing Warriors blog hop is a weekly event in which writers are invited to share eight sentences from one of their works and invite comments.
Check out the other Weekend Writer 8 Sentence Blasts here: http://www.wewriwa.com/
I have chosen to share eight sentences of my latest Work in Progress, Liberty Divided, Isle of Fangs Book 2:
Liberty turned a glare on him. He stood directly behind her, hands shoved in his pockets, yet he’d been chilling in the bar only seconds ago.
“How the hell…?” She shook her head. “Never mind, you’re a vampire. You move with the speed of light.”
He grinned and slanted his upper body toward her. “Yeah, but we’ve got all that darkness brewing inside–ironic, isn’t it?”
I am hoping Liberty Divided will be available by the end of this month. In the meantime, here is my lovely cover:
Check out Liberty Awakened, Isle of Fangs Book 1 available on the Kindle at: Liberty Awakened on Amazon
Please feel free to comment/criticize. And don’t forget to visit the other Weekend Warriors! (I might not answer comments right away. I am currently attending The Vampire Diaries Conference in Dallas. Woohoo!)

Thank you, Linda. I’m sorry for my delayed response. I’ve been out of town at a Vampire Diaries convention and it’s been impossible to get online. I like that you got the contrast. Thanks again!

Excellent Snippet Alicia! (*waves at you, it’s me Lauren from OKRWA). I love the physical chemistry and the way he leans towards her as he says that last great line about the irony. 🙂
