Teaser Tuesday #6

Tuesday, May 15, 2012 with 16 comments
Teaser Tuesday 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!


This week's teaser comes from the following book:

Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Goodreads

Title:  Of Poseidon
Author:  Anna Banks
Series:  1st book in the Of Poseidon series
Publisher:  Feiwel & Friends
Publication Date:  May 22, 2012
Source:  ARC

Galen is the prince of the Syrena, sent to land to find a girl he’s heard can communicate with fish. Emma is on vacation at the beach. When she runs into Galen—literally, ouch!—both teens sense a connection. But it will take several encounters, including a deadly one with a shark, for Galen to be convinced of Emma’s gifts. Now, if he can only convince Emma that she holds the key to his kingdom . . .

Told from both Emma and Galen’s points of view, here is a fish-out-of-water story that sparkles with intrigue, humor, and waves of romance.


My teaser:

"I've outstayed my welcome here.  I will never be invited back.  My chances with Galen ended when I tackled his sister.  And when I punched her.  And just now, when I kick her so hard she dry heaves." -- p. 101 of ARC

Whoa!  This sounds promising!  I was looking for a romantical teaser when I stumbled across this gem, and it sounded like way more fun.  Can't wait to see what this is the result of!

What are you reading this week?  Share the link to your teaser in the comments!

  15. One would suspect that beating up the sister would end and friendly feelings. But you never know, maybe it was warranted. Interesting!
