Here are my Sunday Six from Portrait of Passion:
Before she could stop herself, she started mixing paint colors in her head—espresso with a dab of goldenrod. Maybe a dash of burnt umber stirred in to get that reddish tinge.
“I don’t need any trouble,” he said, but the rasp in his voice told a different story.
His words may have been no-nonsense, but the way those amber-flecked eyes raked her from head to toe promised nonsense of the most delicious kind. Casually trailing her fingers across the paint-smeared palette she’d tossed aside, she tilted her head and wafted her most innocent smile in his direction as she rubbed the slick acrylics between the pads of her fingers.
“I promise, you’ll like the trouble I have planned for you, Officer Jameson.”

Your descriptions are so brilliant and vivid. They’re enough to make any author envious. Fabulous six, Maggie!

Wow, you sure know how to make a scene come to life. Awesome six!
Thank you, Tonya!
Yep, painting is fun. Especially how you do it. Love the Sexy Six.
Thanks, doll! *blows kisses*
Fun stuff, yeah! Looking forward to some delicious trouble. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Love the premise, enjoyed the description, put me right into the scene! Great six!
I’m so glad! Thank you!
I love the colors – it makes your six vibrant. And, I’m curious about what she has planned…
Thank you, Lorraine!
Ha, that is a big promise to make! Hope it will be fulfilled.
You bet your bippy, she will! Thanks, Ana!
I love how artists see the world. Excellent use of her POV.
Thank you, Vivien!
Lovely use of the colours there.
I loved this episode. I have a few quitesons and I hope someone is willing to take a guess. Where did Pinocchio go? Why didn’t Jackson go looking for his daughter. Now that everyone knows who they are, wouldn’t she be looking for him? If you cross the line then you forget your FTL character and only remember your SB character, but Rumple has always known and remembers his FTL. Doesn’t that mean he has only one character? Would he really lose his FTL memories? Why hasn’t Grumpy found his fairy? Where was she? If henry has the book can’t he fill people in on what is going on or will happen? That book seems to be an underutilized resource.
