Teaser Tuesdays

Gerard's:
Off-script in a rare emotional moment, Jeremy suddenly said:  "I mean, if I ran out of money, I'd lose my house before I'd give up this dog.  I'd move into a cardboard box under a bridge before I'd give up this dog."

From page 50 of The Underdogs by Melissa Fay Greene. (non-fiction, wonderful book!)

If not for his sister, Frank would have signed the farm over to Emmet, wished him well, and left the day Pa was laid to rest.  If not for Annie. 

From page 20 of Messenger by Moonlight  by Stephanie Grace Whitson.

Karen's:

I looked across at our opponents and wondered who they were.  And I looked out at the crowd, and that's when I realized we were in the middle of Nationals, and I was supposed to be doing something.

From page 95 of The Memory Book  by Lara Avery.

I'll write a new book.  The events from back then in the form of a crime novel.  Bait for the murderer and therapy for me.

From page 20 of The Trap by Melanie Raabe.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Books and a Beat. Anyone can play along, so I thought  I  would play for fun! Just pick two sentences from the book you are reading. 
Happy Reading!
