Six Sentence Sunday
#sixsunday is from my foodie romance, CLOSE TO THE HEAT 2. (Actual title still being mulled over.) I finally have a chapter one that I like and in it, poor Lee can’t cook anything without starting a fire. Here’s a little snippet, but first…Today’s inspirational pic. (You know you want to click). Click here.
A ball of orange burst into the periphery of Ginger’s vision, the sight enough to make Dan stop talking mid-breath. They both whirled as flames exploded out of a frying pan, tendrils of blue fire snaking into the air. Smoke billowed out at the same time, the pan an obvious threat to everything and everyone in its immediate vicinity.
“Don’t!” Ginger shouted at the man—the gorgeous one who’d caught her attention before. He’d grabbed a bowl and appeared to be reaching for the sink next to his cooking station.

Ah, no! Not water! A fabulously written scene! I felt like I was right there. 🙂
Maybe he’s making a flambé? I like flambé.
Ah ha! I knew it! You’ve been watching me cook. @_@ Your scene is even more vivid for one who has lived it. 😀
Omg everyone’s comments are making me giggle.
What a scene, Dee! So vivid and smokin and hot, but not because of sex…yet? Maybe soon? LOL
Exciting. I actually ducked involuntarily.Dynamic six.
Don’t pour water on it!!!
someone has a lot of learning to do about cooking – hot scene…
I love how she knows he’s going for water and we all KNOW what a mistake that is, but he’s still clueless. Great 6.
Very vivid. Is this a “from personal experience” description?
Obviously, Ginger’s dealt with grease fires before. A nicely tense situation that also manages to contain a trace of humor. Well done!
Smoking 6 and completely entertaining. 🙂
Wow, I love the colours and action in this. Fantastic descriptions, Dee.
Uh oh, tense moment! I can really see the fire from your description – terrific six! L really like the premise of this book!
Oh, i am so inspired. Both by the photo and the great Six! : )
lol it’s like being in my sister’s kitchen. Nice job. 🙂
Hee hee! So the gorgeous one might not have the brains to go with those looks? Better pay more attention to Dan… 🙂
Only you could make a kitchen fire sexy. Wonderful six!
Uh oh! I think it’s about to get worse. Great active writing. The scene really moves.
There’s no way he’s going for water, is there? There goes the kitchen. . . Great writing!
Sounds like what happens in my kitchen. Wonderful scene.
I especially loved the line “the pan an obvious threat to everything and everyone in its immediate vicinity.”
