My teaser comes from the book I'm reading next, No Cure For The Broken Hearted by Kenneth Rosenberg:

    A full range of emotions crossed Katherine's face; shock, disbelief and finally a twinge of terror. "Call him back right now and tell him I can't do it," said Katherine, growing pale.

I'm curious to know who this guy is!

More about the book:

Katherine Spencer is an up-and-coming architect in New York City. Her professional life is on the fast-track. Her personal life is a shambles. Katherine compares every man she ever meets to Nick Bancroft, the billionaire’s son who broke her heart one summer long ago. Now, twelve years later he’s suddenly reappeared, asking her to design a house at the cove where they shared their first kiss. Is he looking for an architect, or something more? And should she forgive him?

Jeff Alt takes you along every step of his 2,160-mile Appalachian Trail adventure. This entertaining journey includes bears, bugs, blisters and captivating characters, skunk bedmates, and hilarious food cravings. Alt walked more than 5 million steps in tribute to his brother, who has cerebral palsy and lives in a home called Sunshine.  This trail adventure has inspired an annual event that has raised more than $200,000 for Sunshine.  It includes hiking tips for the whole family. Walk alongside Alt and experience the joy of turning dreams into goals and then achieving them.  His lessons from the trail celebrate family, stewardship of the earth, good health, and the American spirit.

This book deserves 2 teasers! The first is from page 20:

" I wanted to dedicate my journey to Aaron out of love, but I also wanted to give back to the home for all that it has done for our family and Aaron."

Page 118:

"The temperature dropped to freezing by mid-afternoon, and the rain was now sleet. My lips were  purple, my cheeks red; my body wet, and my mind was drifting-typical symptoms of hypothermia."

(sounds miserable!)






The book sounds amazing and I'm looking forward to reading it and watch the video!

I can't wait to read this one!  Little Princes: One Man's Promise to Bring Home the Lost  Children of Nepal by Conor Grennan

Page 12 : " What happened next  was that I opened my mouth to breathe, but the back draft only fanned the flames in my throat. I grasped for the tin cup of water next to me, oblivious to the shouts of the father, mother, and three children, and realized, too late, that my hand was burning because the water in the tin cup was still boiling." 

I had to keep reading to find out what happened to this poor man but I have to stop!!
I love the book cover, the little boy is so cute! ( Well I think its a little boy)

When Mitch Quillen’s life begins to unravel, he fears there is no escape. His marriage and his career are both failing, and his relationship with his father has been a disaster for decades. Approaching forty, Mitch doesn’t want to become a middle-aged statistic. When his estranged father, Jim, suddenly calls, Mitch’s wife urges him to respond. Ready for a change, Mitch heads to Montana and a showdown that will alter the course of his life. Amid a backdrop of rugged peaks and valleys, the story unfolds: a violent episode that triggered the rift, thirty years of miscommunication, and the possibility of misplaced blame.

This teaser comes from the book The Perfect Blend by Trish Perry

"It took Steph two seconds to shoot just about every berry out of the bowl at once. One quick switch of the speed dial on the mixer, straight to the highest setting, and she pelted everything in the kitchen-including herself- with fresh strawberries and their juice."

About this book: Steph Vandergrift is in desperate need of a hug. She abruptly left everything-her parents, her job, her apartment, her hometown of Baltimore-to elope with Middleburg attorney Rick Manfred, never imagining he would stand her up at the alter. Now all alone in a strange town and hoping just to get by until she can decide what to do next, Steph things she's found the perfect position at Millicent's Tea Shop. Milly offers Steph the job along with a warm pot of tea, scones and a listening ear. Kendall James, one of the kindest and most eligible bachelors in the area, meets Steph at the tea shop and proceeds to pursue her. But by the time she feels able to consider dating again, her runaway fiance returns and tries to win her back. Steph is understandably wary, but she and Rick always seemed to blend so well. Are they truly meant to be together, or does God have something else in mind?

After reading the first page of this book I could hardly put it down! I love the old English language, the Puritans and the history of 17/18th century England.

So this comes from the book The Preachers Bride by Jody Hedlund. It is classified as Christian Lit. 

"The Bedell had clamped her head in a crude circle formed between two hinged boards, and he had locked her hands into the smaller circles on either side of her head, which would prevent her from protecting herself from anything the townspeople might throw at her. Her bright red hair fell in a tangled mass over her face, hiding her eyes."

pg 91. 


So what is YOUR teaser today?
