Teaser Tuesday 28

00:00



Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Here are the rules: 

• Grab your current read 
• Open to a random page 
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page 
• Be careful not the include spoilers! 
• Share the title & author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers. 

I have modified them slightly for my Teasers. It will not be two sentences from a random page but two, usually more, sentences from the pages I have read so far that have struck me as most interesting, original or that I just happen to like a lot.

My teaser this week comes from Flirting with Disaster by Ruthie Knox. This is the third book in her Camelot series and I haven't read the other yet, but I really enjoyed this one. It is funny and steamy contemporary romance with great characters. I just posted my review on the blog, so can check it out if you are intrigued by the teaser. 

"If Sean had put himself in a dumber situation in his life, he was hard pressed to remember it.
Driving to Louisville with Katie Clark  was beyond dumb. It was such a bad idea, it deserved its own category. 
Lost causes Sean's Dick Talked Him Into, maybe."
Flirting with Disaster (Camelot 3) 
by Ruthie Knox

Goodreads Blurb

In the latest eBook original novel in Ruthie Knox’s scorching-hot Camelot series, a no-strings fling looks an awful lot like falling in love—or flirting with disaster.

Fresh out of a fiasco of a marriage, Katie Clark has retreated to her hometown to start over. The new Katie is sophisticated, cavalier, and hell-bent on kicking butt at her job in her brother’s security firm. But on her first assignment—digging up the truth about the stalker threatening a world-famous singer-songwriter—Katie must endure the silent treatment from a stern but sexy partner who doesn’t want her help . . . or her company.

Sean Owens knows that if he opens his mouth around Katie, she’ll instantly remember him as the geeky kid who sat behind her in high school. Silence is golden, but he can’t keep quiet forever, not with Katie stampeding through their investigation. It’s time for Sean to step up and take control of the case, and his decade-old crush. If he can break through Katie’s newfound independence, they just might find they make a perfect team—on the road, on the job, and in bed.

    This sounds like a book I'd enjoy. Good teaser. By the way, I do the same thing you do -- select a couple of sentences that appeal to me, rather than at random. It makes the post more interesting.

      Yes, it does. I highlight passages while reading the book (I read on Kindle) with the idea of using them for TT post if I happen to like the book :)

    I like that category name. It seems to be appropriate for all men in books... Even Mr. Darcy!

    I haven't actually heard of this one, I guess since it's not really my genre, but sounds interesting.

    Heres mine
