Teaser & Top Ten Tuesdays

 

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by Purple Princess of The Purple Booker. 

Here are the rules:

1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a page
3. Pick out 2 lines that are SPOILER FREE
4. Name the title, author, etc.

 

Finally starting this series which is a sort of backwards version of The Princess Bride where the princess will save the stable boy, and it wouldn't be a proper nod to the cult classic without a similar line...

 

"It made her livid.

Which meant the princess required two things to mend her frustrations: Luca and cold, hard, deadly steel.

Whenever she came to him this way at the stable, Luca's answer was the same: 'Always, Princess.'" p 29

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
