Teaser Tuesday: 7/24/12


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • 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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Yara's Teaser (1):

I peer into the condo's face, trying to read any deception or nervousness there, but he is as preternaturally calm as always.
"I want the gate opened," I tell him.
"I'm not sure that's a good--"
They're our people. Not our enemies."

Yara's Teaser (2):

He sank into an elegant crouch directly in front of me. Hit with all that exquisite masculinity at eye level, I could only stare. Stunned.

Deitre's Teaser (1):

The strange sensation called pain. Since Merissa had caused it, and controlled it, and since it was secret, and no one could know-it made her very happy, in that instant. I can do this any time I want. And no one can stop me.

Deitre's Teaser (2):

The vampire screamed in agony as the life (or unlife) poured out of him. In shock I could only sit there straddling him, watching intently as his screams slowly faded and the glow in his eyes was distinguished.

Jennifer's Teaser:

Brynn stared at the door for several long minutes, blinking back the frustrated moisture that threatened to leak out of her eyes. What was that all about? He was the one who'd pulled her in for a kiss. Then he'd broken away all offended, like she'd stolen it form him or something. Was he out of his mind?

Lisa's Teaser:

“How do you always know just what to say?" I ask. His laugh rumbles through me. "Practice, I guess." I pull back and give him a quizzical look. "I spent three years imagining what I would say to you if you were mine," he says, tugging me close. "I should hope I know what to say now that I've got you.”
