She’d added a few ready-made protective charms and safeties before locking it into an iron casket and hiding it in a safe behind a tromp l’oeil facade in her lead-lined basement office. Nothing wrong with a little paranoia. (pg. 21, Shadow Blade by Seressia Glass)
Quotes about paranoia always make me laugh. My husband can be slightly paranoid at times, but as he points out, it’s not paranoia if they really are out to get you. In his case they’re not, but in the quote above, Kira definitely has reason for her concern.
Teaser Tuesdays is hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Play along. I cheated a little this week by not making it random, but the rules are easy. Grab your current read, open to a random page, and give us two teaser sentences. Remember, no spoilers.
My copy was sent to me by the publisher and the above is my honest opinion. I am an Amazon associate.

Sounds like she’s pretty serious about keeping something in – or something out! Great teaser.
Here’s mine.
Now this one I like.
