After taking a week off from Six Sentence Sunday, I'm returning with a sample from one of my WIP, a time travel fantasy romance novel I began when I started this blog, sharing the same name, Illusions of Intimacy. This is the opening, a poetic prose passage, which sets the theme, a timeless bond between a man and woman.
Your presence known through whispers riding upon gentle breezes which lift strands of my hair, or in gusts whipping past, ravaging my body, or in the shivers along my spine from the howl of a solitary wolf. You are there in the crash of lightning bolts, cutting the night sky, in the gleam of a pearl's lustre, or with the inspiration of a familiar scent. Images of you linger on my mind for hours, months, centuries--timeless.
Our adventures have no beginning, no end. We share lust and love, anguish and joy, separation and unity . . . all are blissful. You know me better than any man, and for that singular reason I am your love.
Also, today only you can buy my fantasy romance book Tears on a Tranquil Lake for 50% off ($2.25) until midnight. Use code MA2011S in discount box. http://bit.ly/h0EZrs
