This week, I thought I'd give a glimpse from the POV of the heroine's best friend, Shifty. She's been so much fun to write that I'm as concerned for her happy ending as I am for the heroine's.
She hurried away as fast as she could on her blasted legs—short and not shapely enough to make up for it. Not like Tami, whose body was damn perfect. She’d do her, and she wasn’t even a man.
She concentrated on keeping her face still, the tears at bay, until she got to her lab behind the closed door. She slid to the floor and covered her face, unable to keep the sobs from ripping from her chest.
This abstinence shit was hard.

Ok, now I want Shifty to have her own book so she can have a great HEA. Poor thing. :(
Lots of key information about character packed here. I know Shifty doesn't think she's attractive, she's in lust for someone, and she tries to suppress her emotions.
Great six!
gem
aww, how heart wrenching! Hope it gets better for her.
Shifty definitely deserves her own happy ending.
Great six. Full of emotion. Hope she gets her own HEA.
Yep, she needs a HEA too!
She does deserve to find her own happiness...maybe become the main character in another book?
Wow, I'm intrigued!
Heart-breaking. You can't just leave Shifty like that, Ella!
Fun six. Loving the name Shifty.
I agree, Shity needs her own happiness.
Aww. Poor thing. She definitely needs her own book.
*waits for it*
Very intriguing with so much revealed in only six sentences.
It's always nice when you care for your secondary characters as much as your primary ones.
Oh, too heartbreaking. You have to let her be happy soon!
Great character in six sentences! She does deserve a happy ending!
"She’d do her, and she wasn’t even a man." ROFL! Oooh, poor thing, what abstinence, why is she crying? I want to know!
Ooh, I like her, and I've only known her for six sentences! Good job.
Poor Shifty. She needs to practice loving her body despite media ideals. Would love to hear more about her.
What a fab six! Excellent!
I feel for the girl!
Aw...poor Shifty!! But I know you'll give her a HEA!!
Aww! I feel bad for her!
Oh, love this character! Made us feel so much empathy for her in such a short time. Great!
You managed to pack a whole lot of detail in here that has kept my attention riveted!
Poor girl! Very vividly written.
I like Shifty. I can't wait to read her story!
