I’m baaaack! Did you miss me? 🙂
Sorry, I was busy doing the debut author thing and launching my book, Want. Thanks to many of you, it’s doing well.
So. On to Six Sunday. Before my hiatus, I was revealing the first interaction between Dylan, a modern teen psychic with a bad attitude and Jackson, a Civil War-era spirit who won’t leave Oakleigh House, where Dylan and several other teens are spending the weekend on a retreat to get their abilities under control.
Since I teased you so much before, I’ll fast-forward to “the good parts.” Jackson has just revealed that he needs Dylan’s help with something and she gets pissed, wanting to know what it is.
“In time, sweetheart. I’ll explain in time. But first, let me demonstrate what it is I can do for you.”
His all-too-real hands tip my head to the side and he leans in.
I have my first kiss.
With a ghost.
More mushy stuff next week! As always, please check out the other participants, listed here. Hope everyone has a fantastic week! *smooches*
Love it! Great six.
Intriguing! I can’t wait to read more of this. 🙂
Obviously, he can do something good for her! Great six!
Methinks that’s not all she is going to do with him! Yeah, I know I’ve already read it, but I’d think that even if I hadn’t! 😉
Love this – and am sure there’ll be more 😉
Ooh! I LOVE this! (As long as Jackson wasn’t 45 years old when he croacked, LOL!) Can’t wait to see more mushy stuff next week–what a tease you are!! Congrats on your new release success! =D
Hah! No, he was about 18 or 19. 🙂
Jackson delivers that line (“…let me demonstrate”) with aplomb — for a ghost! LOL I really like that you’re using first person for Dylan. Great to have her pov. Welcome back, Steph, and congrats on the new release!
Very cute! Didn’t we all kiss “ghosts” our first time, though considerably less real than Dylan’s ghost.
I like the combination of ordinary (first kiss) and uncanny (with ghost).
Indeed he CAN do something for her! I agree with EP, liked the combo…
Whoa-ho-ho-ho! First kiss with a ghost? Great six, Stephanie. Welcome back. 🙂
Yes, of course we all missed you. Or we all missed these sixes. A combination of the two, more like it. 😉 This is a great snippet. I suppose one would be infallibly confident if they were a ghost. And carries that right across. To have your first kiss with a ghost…how eerie.
