Teaser Tuesdays are a book meme hosted by 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!
This Tuesday I’m finally reading Sweet as Sin, by Inez Kelley. This is one of those deals when I pre-ordered a book, it got automatically downloaded and I never read it. I’m sooooo kicking myself for waiting this long. Here’s my teaser:
Ashley’s eyes grew damp and her lip quivered. She looked up at him, hero worship in her eyes. John had worked a bit of magic with that pen, some charm that touched the sad little girl.
Also, here’s the full blurb:
She was made for sin. Sin was something he knew intimately.
Bestselling YA author John Murphy is the acclaimed Master of Monsters. But when the door creaks shut, the monsters master him. His haunted past has destined him to hell, but he won’t let that get in the way of enjoying his present or his delicious new neighbor. Enthralled by her, his secrets begin to unravel and the pages of his latest manuscript are written by his deepest fears…and in blood.
Pastry chef owner of The Sugar Shack, Livvy Andrews is as sinfully sweet as the confections she makes and just as irresistible. Her hidden passions erupt when a spicy new neighbor moves in next door and she is powerless against the lure of a man familiar with the erotic delicacies of life. She realizes there are more layers to him than she imagined, each one a delicious or frightening discovery. As lust turns to love, Livvy will master the monsters John keeps in the dark— but at what price?
Dude. That was such a fantastic book!
It is! I’m partial to it, personally. Looking forward to her next book.
Great teaser, Sidney. I didn’t know you were a Teaser Tuesday participant.
Yes ma’am! I was a little late this Tuesday. *blush*
