Continuing with an excerpt from my book Fiendish and I'm picking up again with that. The excerpt picks up in the middle of chapter 3 and I will continue til the end of the chapter. Last week Calida and Seth had just arrived at her house much quicker than she had hoped.
If you are just joining me, click the link below to be taken to the beginning of this excerpt.
I turned to open the door, but Seth
grabbed my hand stopping me. I shot him a look of confusion.
“I can’t let you do that,” he said, answering
my unspoken question.
“I can’t get out of the car?”
“I can’t let you open your own door.”
I felt a smile spread
across my face. The chivalrous nature of that statement made my stomach do a
little flip. Seth got out of the car then strolled around to open the door for
me.Thanks for stopping by!
The mark of a true man. ;D Great snippet!
ReplyDeleteLOL yes, he can be quite the gentleman when he wants to be.

Oh...you've got me guessing here. I get creepy vibes, then good vibes, then ... Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteit's all a guessing game to figure out what Seth will do next.

Ooh, nice twist, I was worried there for a moment!
ReplyDeleteWorried? Did you think he was going to try and kidnap her? Nope he's just being a gentleman and insisting on opening the door.
Deletethanks for stopping by.

ReplyDeleteyeah, when he wants to be. :)

I feel like we're playing a game of cat and mouse! Is he a creep or a gentleman? What are his motives? I NEED THIS BOOK! :-) Nice 8!
ReplyDeleteWe are indeed playing a game of cat and mouse although he's more like a tiger than a cat so the odds are really against her. He's a little bit of both... His motives are always self-serving. It's a long read, but hopefully entertaining from start to finish.

Nice tension and character revelation in just a few lines of dialogue:)
ReplyDeleteThank you.

Annnndddd I'm still on edge for is he a good guy or a bad guy or what?! Very well done, another great snippet!
ReplyDeleteWell, it depends on the day and his mood. Some days, he's a great guy, others, well let's just say you don't want to cross paths with him.

Ahhh, now he's found a reason to get out of the car, and then he'll walk her to her door, and then, oh-so-cleverly, he'll convince her to invite him in. That's what's happening in my head, at least. lol. Great excerpt! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL...you make it sound like he doesn't have pure intentions right now. He could just be a gentleman and believes in opening the door for a lady. :) Or not...

ReplyDeletesorry...that was not my intention...well maybe it is a little :)
