Someday I will shed the mask, she thought. Someday.

This book is so freakin good! Another great new series by H.D.

I kept this mysterious because I am doing my review on Friday, March 29th.

I don’t want to say much more until then!

How about you? Got a tease? Tell me!

by Erica Stevens

Renegade (The Captive, #2)

While he would like her punished for her treachery, would like her to suffer for what she had done to him, did he truly want her dead?

This is so good. Already went and grabbed the next book so I don’t have to wait!

How about you? Got a tease? Tell me!

My tease for today is from Deadly Road by Tara Neideffer

Deadly Road

She felt its anger drift through the air towards her, feeling like hands closing around her neck.

Creepy, eh?

I’m almost finished with Deadly Road.

Can’t wait to tell you about it.

My Teaser for today is from The Dark Inside by Donna Galanti

The Dark Inside (A Human Element)

goodreads-badge-add-plus for awaken

This is a collection of stories. My tease is from

The First Time ~ X-10

Even in the garish light she was the loveliest thing he had ever seen.

He wanted to touch her, but was afraid of his urges.

To hurt and maim and kill.

I am eating these stories up like hot buttered popcorn, with extra butter, at the movies!

Can’t wait to tell you about these awesome stories!

My teaser for today is from Read No Evil by Steven W. White

Read No Evil

goodreads-badge-add-plus

Here’s my tease!

It was her eyes that he noticed. They were all-nighter bloodshot… and totally focused on what she was reading. The intensity of her face was startling, and it looked like she’d been keeping it up for days.

She was reading one of those electronic book-on-a-screen thingamajigs, an ereader or whatnot.

This had my attention from the first paragraph. Can’t wait to finish and tell you about it.

My Teaser for today is from Captured by Erica Stevens

Captured (The Captive, #1)

goodreads-badge-add-plus

What was this girl to him? Why did she affect him so? What the hell was going on here?

He knew that he could not keep her happy, she did not belong here.This was not her place. This was not her world, and she would never be safe here.

Blood slaves were used, drained, tortured, and tossed away. They were not treasured, they were not taken care of, and they most certainly were not kept alive for extended periods of time.

What the hell was he going to do with her?

Having a great time and flying through this!

Past the halfway point and heading into the home stretch!

How about you? Got a tease? Tell me!!

My teaser for today is from The Boots My Mother Gave Me by Brooklyn James

The Boots My Mother Gave Me

goodreads-badge-add-plus for awaken

My Teaser

As we drove, the dashboard lights reflected off his intoxicating smile. I watched him intently, burning the image into my mind for future recollection. This would be my last year with the person I shared most of my firsts with – my first friend, my first bike ride, my first loose tooth…even my first kiss.

One word about this book ~ INTENSE!

I’m taking a wild guess at it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the author on the cover.

This book makes me think of that song, “These boots are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do. One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you!

Can’t wait to finish this and tell you about it!

My teaser for today is from Blood Fugue, Moonsongs, Book #1

Blood Fugue (Moonsongs, Book 1)

goodreads-badge-add-plus for awaken

Here’s my teaser!

“I’ve spent my entire life hunting. It‘s  all I’ve known. Six months ago, I became the hunted. Something started picking off my animals one by one. I began tracking him, setting traps and such. Turns out he’d been watching me. Early one morning, he sprang a trap of his own – never even saw him coming out of the brush. If it weren’t for Thunder, he’d have killed me. The horse threw me clear….

“You kids have to help me. I’m too old and crippled up for this hunt. He’ll be back tonight.”

“How can you be sure?” I hoped to find one last loophole to get me out of playing zookeeper for the elderly and disturbed.

His face was a sharp and twisted mask of barbed wire as he fixed his gaze on me again. “I’ve dealt with his kind before. He’ll never leave a kill alone for long. Once the sun goes down, he’ll be back.”

I’m about two-thirds through this and hanging on to the edge of my seat. I’m not quite sure what they are dealing with, but I’m going to find out!

Got a tease for me? Love to hear it!

My teaser for today is from Dead of Eve by Pam Godwin

Dead of Eve (Trilogy of Eve, #1)

goodreads-badge-add-plus for awaken

His expression shuttered, fingers digging into his jean-clad thighs. He stared at me for a long time, carving away my anger. But I glared right back, willing him to understand. Then something changed. The air between us shifted, sizzled, charged.

He rose from the couch, stepped toe-to-toe with me, looking suspicious and gorgeous, smiling down at me.

Dead of Eve is the first chapter in a trilogy. Intense and engaging. I’m tearing through this one and excited to know there will be more!

My teaser for today is from The Dead-Tossed Waves by Carrie Ryan

The Dead-Tossed Waves (The Forest of Hands and Teeth, #2)

goodreads-badge-add-plus for awaken

The bodies in the water rise higher and higher, bubbles pouring from their mouths. When they pop to the surface it’s not moans that I hear but whispers. Then their hands are reaching over the rails, are trailing along my skin. They pull me out of the boat and into the water and I wait for the teeth.

They slide their lips over my skin, whispering whispering whispering. They tell me their names, they tell me their lives, they tell me their pain……I can’t stop laughing, I can’t resist these people-who-once-were.

This is the sequel to The Forest of Hands and Teeth. I enjoyed the first book and I can tell you,  hands down, this is even better!

Can’t wait for the movies!
