Welcome friends new and old. I’m going to give you a couple more posts from the WIP I’ve been sharing before I move onto something new.
In the Blind (working title), and you can see the past posts from this WIP here. The Logline: When a head hunter finds her dream lover in a night of pitch black unrestrained passion, she fears she’ll never find him again. Fate steps in and throws the two together, but they might never discover the truth and stay in the blind.
Over the past few weeks I’ve shared Jane’s experience at Club Blind and her business opportunity that put her in touch with Rob. Last Post I brought Jane and Rob together to discuss a job opportunity that has the potential to lift or sink both of their careers. In this week’s post, Jane has presented Rob with the job description. He’s impressed until he learns where he’d be working.
“We can go over there right now. He’s waiting for us.” She got up, practically bouncing on her toes. “He just started looking yesterday. You’ll be his first interview.”
“No, I don’t think so. This won’t work.”
She stopped and turned around, but swallowed her disappointment as she took in his hunched posture and stony expression.
Oh boy. This job might not be a good fit for Rob. What’s a girl to do? Jane’s putting her career and love on the line. <If you want, you can Tweet That> It’s time for Jane to choose. Will she push for her career and risk losing her chance with Rob? Come back next week and I’ll give you another clue.
Hope you enjoyed my eight today. Thank you so much for visiting me, it means a lot to me that you took the time to visit my little place on the web. Don’t forget to check out the other Weekend Warriors, and Saturday Spankings too.
something tells me he’s disappointed that he won’t be working with her. I’m dying to know what he’s going to say. Terrific snippet!
Good conflict! Work is usually a hot button issue, especially today.
Leaves me wondering what suddenly turned him off to the job, intriguing. Have been enjoying this story – another excellent excerpt!
How do you put in your twitter link? That’s a neat feature.
I like the physical contrast between her bouncing and his stone. Nice, subtle touches.
Thanks, Ana 🙂
I built the link at http://clicktotweet.com/ I thought it was pretty cool too.
Very interesting. I can’t wait to read more.
Nice way of depicting her disappointment SJ. Can’t wait for more of this.
Building the conflict nicely!
I agree, great job presenting the conflict.
Intriguing snippet, wonder why he thinks it won’t work.
Ugh always a bad mix business and romance. I wonder what she is going to say to Rob’s response.?
SJ – you are too cool with your “Tweet That” link! I did it!
Wow, Jane has a lot to lose. Intriguing story! Can’t wait for more. 🙂
All right, Rob was all excited about seeing her, so why is he suddenly saying this won’t work? Very intriguing.
Nice excerpt 🙂 Can’t wait to see what happens!
Hmmm. What is he hiding from the past? Great excerpt!
The job is at a sex club, perhaps? That’s my guess. Can’t wait to see if I’m right!
Great snippet for building conflict between them. Can’t wait to find out his reasons!
OK, first LOVE the clicktotweetthat and will be off to find it meself. Second…oh, pooh for both of them at this particular point in the story. 😦
Oh, I see trouble ahead. Nice snippet, S.J.!
Cool premise. Can’t wait to see what happens next.
He is sensing something that we have not seen yet. Leaves us anxious for next week.
You TEASE! Great snippet, SJ, and I’m really enjoying your tale. 🙂
Love the body language description! Well done!
And she was so excited! I hope they can work it out.
I hope they get this figured out. 🙂 I tweeted ya! 🙂
