Teaser Tuesdays ~ Beside Two Rivers


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along, so I thought I would play for fun! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

The Potomac Heights, Maryland
1797

She'd been warned not to venture far from the house, nor go near the river, nor climb the dark shale bluffs above it.  But Darcy Morgan had inherited an adventurous spirit that could not be bridled.  It had been her favorite place to retreat since the age of nine,  when she had discovered it one morning while trekking with her cousins over the ridge that shadowed the Potomac River.

He doesn't sound very pleasant. My teasers are from Sapphire Blue by Kerstin Gier and A Royal Pain by Megan Mulry. Happy reading!

Both of these books sound like they're worth reading. Great post.
My Teaser is from SLIGHTLY CRACKED.
