It's Six Sentence Sunday! I thought I would share my western/historical, WANTED with y'all today.
In this scene: JoBeth is part of Shane Maverick's outlaw gang and the authorities know Shane will come for her, but the authorities decide to hide her away in a small lumber town in the care of Sheriff Jace Kelly, while they devise a plan to capture him. Jace is about to show JoBeth her accommodations. Meaning a nice jail cell.
Now here's the six:
Dark rings shadowed her eyes, making Jace wonder when she had last slept, but beneath the grime and the fatigue, JoBeth Maverick might be a handsome woman. Dangerous, too—he reminded himself. She robbed stagecoaches for a living.
"Are you done staring, Sheriff?" Her voice was a smooth drawl, the words rolling off her tongue in accusation. One lovely, dark brow arched on her forehead and her eyes narrowed to green slits.
I hope you enjoyed the six.
