Teaser Tuesday

Grab your current read. Let the book fall open to a random page. Share with us two (2) "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page. You also need to share the title of the book that you're getting your "teaser" from...that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you've given. Please avoid spoilers! My teaser: Clients came in an endless variety of guises, but you did not last long in the investigation business unless you learned to distinguish between two broad groups: safe and dangerous. Jack Winters was clearly in the second category. -pg. 13, Fired Up by Jayne Ann Krentz Teaser Tuesdays is hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Play along. My copy was borrowed from the library.

Deep Kiss of Winter by Kresley Cole and Gena Showalter

Deep Kiss of Winter by Kresley Cole and Gena Showalter I've been reading a lot of kids books this month, but this one is definitely for adults. These are two hot paranormal romances, perfect for the wintry weather we've been having lately. I will definitely be reading more by both of these author's. Of course, paranormal romance is one of my favorite genres.
