Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along, so I thought I would play for fun! Just do the following
- Grab your current read
- Open to a random page (well, we cheat and choose specific ones)
- Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
- Share the title and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teaser.
Karen's:
Two hours and twenty-two minutes she'd been waiting! If her errant fiance bothered showing up at all, it better be on hands and knees.From page 6 of "And Then Came Spring" by Margaret Brownley, the first novella in A Bride For All Seasons--The mail-order Bride Collection.
"Our Mathew is scarce on smiles and even more scarce on talk." She grinned. "I think with that sparkle of mischief I see in your blue eyes you might just be the one to tug both from the depths of him."From page 126 of "An Ever After Summer" by Debra Clofton, the second novella in A Bride For All Seasons--The mail-order Bride Collection.
Gerard's:
The car jackknifed, spun sideways, and flipped over at 162 mph.From page 7 of Proxy by Alex London. (science fiction YA)
Airborne.
The stabilizer engine screeched helplessly at the sky.
Or maybe that was the girl.
Gretta puts her hands on her hips. She calls her husband's name, once, twice. The flank of the garden wall throws the sound back to her.From page 9 of Instructions for a Heatwave by Maggie O'Farrell.
Happy Reading!
I think Gerard and I really like action books ;)
ReplyDeleteHere's mine: My teaser
Yup!
DeleteOOh nice teases!! Thanks for visiting my teaser!
ReplyDeleteFor once I don't recognize any of your books this week. I'm playing today here.
ReplyDeleteGood ones! I love romances that feature mail order brides.
ReplyDeleteI liked all of these, but as always I'd rather have access to Gerard's reading pile! :-)
ReplyDeleteThese all sound good. I would read all of them. My teasers this week are from Playing to Win by Jaci Burton and Wednesdays in the Tower by Jessica Day George. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteInteresting collection of teasers this week. Some dramatic stuff.
ReplyDeletegreat teasers this week. I admit, much as I like romance I'm most drawn to Gerard's teasers. Proxy sounds fast-paced, and I've had my eye on Heatwave since someone else teased that a few weeks back. Mine: Breakfast at Tiffany’s
ReplyDeleteAwesome picks for teasers this week! :D
