This week I'm working on a new scene for Diamonds Sometimes Lose their Luster. It's the morning after, and Shelbie's had one too many margaritas.You don't see it in the snippet below, but the couple is on their side, back to front. This snippet has been edited to get the effect of present and her dream vision in 8 lines.
Her thoughts in the present are in regular font. Her dream/vision is italicized.This version is PG13. I'll let readers know when it gets too steamy. What I'm looking for is continuity and that Shelbie's feelings in both situations are portrayed without being confusing. Any help is appreciated.
Groaning
inwardly, she remembered almost single handedly downing a pitcher of margaritas
last night. Everything else was a blur.
She
rubbed her lips up the side of his throat. The prickle of his morning beard,
sent shivers of pleasure through her body. She eagerly ate at his mouth already
overwhelmed with need for him.
It
took long moments for Shelbie’s alcohol soaked brain to catch up. Her brow
furrowed in confusion. Hadn't his breath whispered along the base of her neck,
his teeth gently scraping along the ridge of her shoulder before nipping at the
soft spot behind her ear?
Diamonds Aren't Forever is still on sale.
