Only two more Sundays until Clear As Day releases on April 4!
In today’s six, Nate has pulled Kay away from their group of friends to go night fishing on his boat and, now that they have private time to themselves, she’s been expecting him to demand answers:
What if she trusted him, as Olivia had trusted R.J., trusted those around her, and something beautiful came to disaster?
She sucked in a hard breath. Getting wound up was no good. Nate wasn’t pressuring her, but she was doing a good job pressuring herself.
Nate looked back at her and smiled as he reeled in his line. Just a content aren’t-you-glad-we’re-here together smile that wrapped around her like velvet and steel, uplifting and terrifying and comforting beyond anything she understood.

Great way to describe that feeling. I know what she means!
That’s a good six. I like Nate. He seems like a sweet guy.
Love her internal conflict in this snippet. Nicely written 6…and congrats on your upcoming release 🙂
Thank you!
There’s something almost ominous to these lines… Love her internal conflict though – very well portrayed 🙂
Wonderful six…you can practically feel her fidgeting. And congrats on April 4!! Only two weeks away! 🙂
I liked the way her thoughts contrasted with how he seemed to be feeling, intriguing.Best wishes for the April 4th release! Great snippet today.
I like the way you’ve developed her internal turmoil. Congratulations on your upcoming release!
Awesome 6! I really like her introspection (we’re so good at winding ourselves up aren’t we??) and contrasting it with his laid-back attitude. And then culminating in such a wonderful metaphor that so aptly expresses that scary time/moment!
And the countdown continues! This is an intriguing six and I love the language in this. It’s almost prose but clear and concise.
Ah, that is so sweet. Nate, and the way he makes her feel with a smile, that is. Her inner turmoil isn’t so sweet…poor thing.
Loved the conflict… Great 6!
Aww! Great six!
Aaah that sensation of pressure, all the worse when it comes from the inside! Great six. 🙂
