Teaser Tuesday 1-10-12

This is a weekly bookish meme is hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading.
To participate you:
* 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!


This weeks book is The Light of Asteria by Elizabeth Isaacs 


"Warm hands gripped my waist, keeping me from falling, and I realized I had run into a wall of a man.  Trying to see through the tears, I shook my head as a gust of wind whipped the hair across my face.  His broad shoulders didn't seem as if they would fit through a doorframe.  Our eyes locked.  I had never seen more strange or beautiful eyes.  They were like faceted emeralds, brilliant and pure. The ache spilled over to tears.  He was like everything else here -- too good for me.  His incredibly green eyes flashed as his grip tightened.  Unknown emotions swirled and screamed with a  power that grew.  The crown of my head became warm, cascading down my skull, heating the length of my spine."
 Kindle location 111

Yeah, I broke the rules, again.  I know you're not at all surprised!  Be honest - you wish I had gone a few sentences more!?!

So I just finished this book - my review will be part of the tour on Thursday.  This teaser is when Nora first meets Gavin.  I was sucked in quickly on this one.  Loved it.  Make sure you check it out.

What do you think of my teaser?  What about your teaser?  Leave a comment and/or a link.
