Snippet Sunday and Weekend Writing Warriors

Welcome to Snippet Sunday and Weekend Writing Warriors. My excerpt today comes from my currently unnamed WIP. In this snippet we see the first meeting between my hero and the woman he had an affair with. He's at a Washington party and sees a woman who looks very much like his wife, Alex. It's unedited, so if you see a problem give a yell.

“So that’s Danielle Frost.”
Danielle Frost was one of the most dynamic lobbyists Washington had ever seen. If she had a cause, she usually got the results she wanted.

She turned around and caught him staring at her. A Mona Lisa type smile curved her lips as she blatantly checked him out. He felt a jolt to his gut. Alex sometimes smiled that way. “I’ve got to meet Ms. Frost,” he said. “Excuse me, Tom.”
