Welcome to another Six Sentence Sunday and another excerpt from my WIP, a time travel thriller entitled Appearances. I appreciate your returning each week and welcome to those of you looking in for the first time. Enjoy!
Appearances
Savannah James. That was her name. Her story was that she was a time traveller and she was trying to stop a terrorist attack. Why she came to me wasn’t entirely clear, but I couldn’t get her out of my head the rest of the day. The fact that she had deep blue eyes and long, gorgeous legs didn’t help.
“Had a change of heart, Eric?” she said the next morning when she walked into my office.
******************
I hope you enjoyed this excerpt. Thank you all for reading and commenting. Please visit Six Sentence Sunday for more snippets from truly talented authors and writers..
Of course, the fact he obviously fancies the pants off her has absolutely nothing to do with why he remembers her so clearly.
Another great 6. 
He is having some trouble focusing on her story, isn’t he!
Thanks, Julie!
Fantastic six! Well done.
Thank you, Alix!
A time traveller on a mission to stop a terrorist attack – I already love it as I can practically feel the tension of her mission vibrating the air. Great premise and very nice six, it breathes with conflict which makes me want to discover more. BTW, love the title!
Hey Kelly! Thank you! There are lots of twists and turns in the story so the tension is there throughout.
I’m happy you like the title, too!
Great six!! Well written. Looking forward to next time!
Thank you so much! Thanks for reading!
Nice six here. Definitely has me curious about her.
thanks R! I was hoping readers would be curious about Savannah.
He’s smitten!
…from lust to love… Possibly.

Yeah, he’s so going to help her. Sweet pic, Ryan.
He so can’t resist her *ahem* plea. Glad ya like the pic. Thanks, Claire!
Nice, Ryan! Yes, that’s a story that would make anyone stand out–and those long legs
Great snippet–let’s see if Eric does, indeed, have a change of heart 
Thanks for sharing!
He’s may question his own sanity before he agrees to help her. Thanks for the compliment, Guilie!
Is it his heart doing the thinking here, though?
Thanks for sharing!
-lol- At this point in the story, he doesn’t quite know what to think.
Thanks for commenting Viv!
Really nice six Ryan! Cue smoke, cue ceiling fan, pan out from glass of scotch, and clicking typewriter.
I love how the pace and rhythm of the internal dialogue (really well done!) brings to mind images of a classic detective sitting in a dim office at the end of the day making notes while these lines are spoken in a narrator style. You create a nice mix of mystery and attraction here!
I was in a funky mood when I thought up this plotline, Tiff. Hence, ’40s p.i. meets sexy time traveller from the future. Thank you for the really great comment! Happy you enjoyed the six.
Really well done! I love the tone of the language–the ’40s p.i. feeling really came through.
Hi Karysa! Thank you!
Thought I’d go for the unusual mix of time traveller from the future seeking help from ’40s era p.i. type, with the actual setting being in the present. I hope that makes sense. 
Thanks for visiting my blog and reading and commenting!
You can’t go wrong with that storyline! Love her name and that pic! Awww, love it too!
Thank you, Sandra! That was a bit of inspiration…the name fits her in the way I see her character. The storyline presents a lot of options and possibilities for plot, doesn’t it? I’m happy you like the pic. I was kinda rushed this week, but I didn’t wanna disappoint you by not including a romantic pic.
