Teaser Tuesday



My teaser today is from  The Color Of Snow by Brenda Stanley  (e-book).

“What? Are you trying to tell me our young lady in here is the legendary Callidora? Do you really think this is the perfectly featured, flawless beauty that graced those flyers? It’s a classic case of a family canonizing their lost child. It’s sad and pathetic.”

My Teaser:

Liz locked the door and staggered to the rocking chair. Her head throbbed. She knew it was coming. The tightness in her chest began, and the cold made her body numb in seconds. She could no longer feel the heat from the fireplace. It was as if she were leaving this world.

Feeling the last beat of a troubled heart, her human shell shut down, releasing the soul of an angel into the frightening night.

My Teaser:

Tessa thrust the book away from her as if it were on fire. "You can't be serious."

"You're right. I'm not." Will leaped down from the ladder and landed lightly in front of her. "You do believe everything I say, though, don't you? Is it because I have a a trustworthy sort of face?"

True, since then he'd tended to surprise her by materializing - usually behind her - in a startling and often disconcerting way. But York wasn't a big city like Chicago, and is she wandered the streets for long enough, Miranda was sure she'd find Nick again.
