Without Regex.

<cfscript>
function getwords(sentence,numberOfWords) {
var str="";
for (i=1;i LTE numberOfWords;i=i+1) {
str=listAppend(str,listGetAt(sentence,i," ")," ");
}
return(str);
}
</cfscript>
<cfset s="Hotel Reservations Online. Discount Hotel Reservations in every city -  Orlando, Las Vegas, New York, London, Miami and more.">

<cfset fragment=getWords(s,1)>
<cfoutput>#fragment#</cfoutput><br>

<cfset fragment=getWords(s,2)>
<cfoutput>#fragment#</cfoutput><br>
<cfset fragment=getWords(s,3)>
<cfoutput>#fragment#</cfoutput><br>
<cfset fragment=getWords(s,4)>
<cfoutput>#fragment#</cfoutput><br>
<cfset fragment=getWords(s,5)>
<cfoutput>#fragment#</cfoutput><br>

NOTE: you can replace the " " delimiter in the listGetAt function with a list of delimiters if you wish.

Then it all depends on what you define as a word.

This should work (NOT TESTED)

function GetWords(string,i){
var Regexp = "\w+";
var aTmp = "";
var out = "";
if(i GT 1) Regexp = "(\w+\W+){" & (i-1) & "}" & Regexp;
aTmp = ReFindNoCase(Regexp,string,1,true);
if(aTmp.pos[1]) out = Mid(string,aTmp.pos[1],aTmp.len[1]);
return out;
}
