Teaser Tuesday

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along, just do as 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 any spoilers so as not to ruin the book for others!

Make sure to share the title and the author so other TT participants can add the book to their TBR piles!

My Teaser is from Red Fox, Book 2 in the Experiment in Terror series, by Karina Halle. When I was asked to read/review Red Fox and Book 1, Darkhouse, I had no idea my world was about to be rocked. I can't tell you how much I love this series and can not wait to read book 3, Dead Sky Morning.

Red Fox (Experiment in Terror #2)

With Book Two of the Experiment in Terror Series, Perry Palomino and Dex Foray trade in the stormy Oregon coast for the unforgiving deserts of New Mexico.

In the for­got­ten town of Red Fox, a Navajo cou­ple is tor­tured by things unseen and by motives unknown. Wild ani­mals slink through their house in the dark, a bar­rage of stones pound their roof nightly, and muti­lated sheep car­casses are turn­ing up on their prop­erty. Armed with a cam­era and just enough to go on, Perry and Dex travel to the des­o­late locale, hop­ing to film the super­nat­ural occur­rences and add cred­i­bil­ity to their flail­ing web­cast. Only their show has a lot more work­ing against them than just grow­ing pains. Tested by dubi­ous ranch hands, a ghost from Dex’s past, and shapeshift­ing decep­tion, the ama­teur ghost hunters must learn to trust each other in order to fight the most ancient of myths…or die trying. (From GoodReads)


A little background: the main characters Perry and Dex, have serious chemistry. Dex is technically Perry's boss and has a girlfriend back at home. Perry is way into Dex, but they both have tons of baggage. Dex has just patched Perry up after she was injured and they've had an intense few moments.

Here's my teaser:

"And with that he was gone, I was alone again in the bathroom, my wounds cleaned but my mind more infected than ever."

This series has quickly become a favorite. Check back later this week for my reviews of Darkhouse and Red Fox.
