Six Sentence Sunday: After the Wedding

Welcome to Six Sentence Sunday. I'd love for you to leave me a comment.  In today's excerpt Kara my heroine has just gotten home from her sister's wedding.  Too bad that her sister stole her fiance!  Do stop by next week.  This is a pivotal event in the book, and I need more than six sentences to tell it.  Okay, here we go.


Her wedding dress gleamed and sparkled through its heavy plastic covering. On impulse she unzipped the cover and caressed the heavy satin. She had so loved this dress!
She fingered the small pearls sewn into the bodice, and stuck her arm into one long, sheer, embroidered sleeve. How sad for such a beautiful dress to sit in a closet forever.
Without warning, anger flooded Kara.
