Teaser Tuesday is hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. Here are the rules: Grab your current read. Open to a random page. Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page, and 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 Teaser Tuesday participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
The ashen, sickly color of her skin faded. Slowly, Madame Cornot loosened her grip on Ada's arms until she eventually let go and lay back against the couch with her eyes closed.

And now, for my Tuesday Teaser...For those of you who don't know, I do my Tuesday Teasers differently (and yes, I add this disclaimer every time). Each week, I feature two sentences (or more) of something I've written, leave it up all day, then remove it around 11 PM. You're welcome to comment on it, love it, hate it, or simply read it at your leisure...if you'd like, of course. This week's teaser is from my current WIP, RACE.
Brimming with blood and echoing with the screams of a thousand dead Racers, I wrench myself from the vivid nightmare, but the terror remains. I launch myself from my cot and crouch in the far corner, panting for a deep breath, feeling the icy cold sheen trickle lazily down my neck.
Be sure to check out today's stop for The Long Weekend Blog Tour hosted by yours truly! The all-too-awesome Steph from Steph the Bookworm has a fabulous review/interview/international giveaway for all of you, so be sure to drop by and check it out!
