Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! 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!

Cascade (River of Time, #2) by Lisa Tawn Bergren

My Teaser:

I hardly had a choice, with him hovering over me. I lowered myself, suspiciously staring up at him. Crazily there were three of him now. All three Lord Grecos moved to the bottom of the cot and unfolded the heavy blanket, pulling it up and over me. They really weren’t looking at me with anything more than the eyes of a friend. Maybe they’re gay…                 

It was my throbbing head and ribs that woke me first, as dawn lit the outside, changing the color of the tent plum to lavender. Kind of a girly color for a knight, I thought. Maybe he really is gay.              

I turned around the corner of the screen and gasped. Once again, he’d crept in without me knowing. Lord Greco stared at me, his eyes falling from my wet curls to the damp shirt… for the first time letting me know he thought I was something more than a sack of potatoes to deliver. Not gay.          

I know this is too much of a teaser but anyway… I still posted it. Mind you, Lord Greco is not the main protagonist of this story, no. But he is a mysterious villain and I am crushing on him because he’s gorgeous and stuffs like that. And anyway, the point of this teaser is for me to say that my beloved Lord Greco is NOT gay! I will not accept it, Ms. Bergren, if you make him that way. I’m just saying anyway, that my knight in shinning armor slash mysterious villain slash a total hottie Lord Rodolfo Greco is a man!

Okay I think I’m done blabbing.
