Who is a space case and never went back and updated her teaser last week? LOL This girl. Little mini vacation was lovely though, once we got there. On the way both front tires of my car blew, on a 75mph zone two lane highway at 9pm on a holiday weekend. Did you know that some cars have locking lug nuts? I didn’t. I have roadside assistance but thanks to the locking lug nuts and lack of key they couldn’t help other then calling a tow truck. Cutting a long story short ended up renting a car to make the 2 hour drive to see David Cook & Idina Menzel. At least the hotel as always was a dream, highly reccomend you treat yourself to The Westin sometimes the beds alone….heavenly.

I digress….it is Teaser Tuesday not long tale Tuesday, lol.

Here is the teaser from my current read.

A rose among thorns.
Alma repeated the words with a sigh of regret, adjusted the gun against her leg, and let the skirt drop into place. Her chapped knuckles caught on the coarse fabric. ~ Frail Blood by Jo Robertson

I just finished this one, but as my current book is out in my office and I admit I am being lazy and don’t want to go back out there, lol plus this is a good quote and book.

“Then again, she didn’t like small talk either, so she was glad he wasn’t commenting on the weather or the landscape. Life was too big and too short and too important to talk about the lack of rain or the latest gossip. She wanted to know how people felt about themselves and one another, whether they were happy or sad. She wanted to know what made them feel loved and what hurt them to the core. She wanted to know about their past, how they got where they were, and their relationships with their mothers and fathers and siblings. She wanted to know if she was the only mixed-up person in the world who felt completely and utterly alone.”

Welcome August! Wow are we really looking down heading into fall soon? 2017 seems to be flying by! I am still working on the re-read of Poldark.

“At that, his smile faded and he kissed her. “Ross,” she said. “Dear Ross.” “I love you,” he said, “and am your servant. Demelza, look at me. If I’ve done wrong in the past, give me leave to make amends.” So he found that what he had half despised was not despicable, that what had been for him the satisfaction of an appetite, a pleasant but commonplace adventure in disappointment, owned wayward and elusive depths he had not known before, and carried the knowledge of beauty in its heart.”― Winston Graham, Ross Poldark

I am back to another series set that I have liked since I was younger and is currently a running TV show. Good ole Ross Poldark has been a friend of mine since oh goodness well since I was very young. He is a very flawed hero but I always found that was one of the reasons I liked him so much, even if I didn’t like his actions he was very human.

“The case is closed, Mr. Poldark. You will kindly step down.” “Otherwise,” said Dr. Halse, “we will have you committed for contempt of court.” Ross bowed slightly. “I can only assure you, sir, that such a committal would be a reading of my inmost thoughts.”

i am so sorry this is up late this week everyone. I had it scheduled to go live and wordpress decided for some reason not to post it on time. I feel bad! I am glad that I double checked the blog though after packing up a wholesale stitch marker order. Whew! So apologies made here we go and it is Teaser Tuesday.

I actually just finished this book but as I was working through the night have not had a chance to start another yet so one last quote from the second book in the Saxon series.

“But deep under the earth, where the corpse serpent gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil, the tree of life, there are three spinners. Three women who make our fate. We might believe we make choices, but in truth our lives are in the spinners’ fingers. They make our lives, and destiny is everything. The Danes know that, and even the Christians know it, Wyrd biõ ful araed, we Saxons say, fate is inexorable.”

Happy 4th of July to my American friends and family. Happy Treason day to all my British friends and family. Happy random day in July to all my friends and family from other places around the world, lol. Did I cover everyone?

And just because its my blog and I do what I want… I will use a rebellious Saxon Dane looking hunky on a Gif as my celebration image: LOL I am also re-reading the second book in the series.
