Lucky Seven - His Princess

Doris O'Connor tagged me on this fun thing making the rounds in the writing circuit.


Here are the rules:
1. Go to page 77 of your current manuscript
2. Go to line 7
3. Copy the next 7 lines - sentences or paragraphs and post them as they are written. No cheating.
4. Tag 7 authors



My current MS is not long enough yet so I've chosen 7 from His Princess (book 3 of Men of Valor historical romance series out July 2012 published by Breathless Press) which is currently undergoing round 1 editing. This is unedited. Enjoy. :)

Ezinne noticed a gap in the crowd ring and walked to it. When she saw the two men, her heart stopped for a moment. Both men faced each other off, weapons raised. Both were breathing heavily and their dark skins gleamed with sweat. While they were both matched in height being tall men, the warrior Ikem, was heavier in muscle definition, one side of his body covered in warrior tattoos. Yet her eyes were drawn to Emeka’s body. She had never seen his body uncovered before. 


Now I tag:
1. Myne Whitman
2. Elise Marion
3. Nkem Ivara
4. Empi Baryeh
5. Yazmin Subha
6. J.L. Campbell
7. Natasha Blackthorne


Feel free to opt out if you've been tagged. It's just a bit of fun. Enjoy playing. :o))
