Six Sentence Sunday

In this excerpt from Return Engagement, my hero warms his father not to interfere in his relationship with my heroine.  Return Engagement is available at Whiskey Creek Press.

This won’t help your career."

"Career be damned. I want her more. Dad, listen to me; if you do anything at all to interfere with us, your plans for me are over. Do I make myself perfectly clear?"

"Perfectly," answered the senator, but silently he added, What you don’t know won’t hurt you.

    You know how to leave us with a cliffhanger, don't you? Another great six.

    Ohhh, beware of that last line. I've discovered what you don't know CAN hurt you...eventually. Great job, Elaine.
