Teaser Tuesday

Karen's:

She glanced at the man who'd stolen her heart.  And some fat cow at his side.  Why had he brought her?

From Pg. 8 (Loc. 117 on Kindle) of Always Watching (book 1 of the Elite Guardians series) by Lynette Eason.

I don't know if it's what I've got and, more important, I don't want to know.  For now, ignorance is bliss.

From page 77 of The Breakdown by B. A. Paris.

"I've always believed that each of us was put on Earth to make it a better place.  We can't change the past, but if we make the present the best it can be, we can influence the future."

From page 24 of Waiting for Spring by Amanda Cabot.

Gerard's:

I knew even as a stupid little kid that no girl, not even one who cuts you, deserves to be hurt, dead, given wings.

From page 109 of First We Were IV by Alexandra Sirowy.

From pate 31 of Exposed by Lisa Scottoline.


The friends' faces now in horror, watching as his eyes roll upwards and his body convulses in front of them all, back arched, limbs juddering.  A doctor skiing past stops to help, the Rescue Patrol is called, paramedics are removing the young man's jacket, T-shirt, cutting through his vest in the race to keep him alive, the air reverberating with the thump, thump of a helicopter's blades.

From pg. 9 of Beyond the High Blue Air  by Lu Spinney (a memoir).
