Teaser Tuesday (#1): Torn by Erica O'Rourke

Teaser Tuesdays 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!

I had a pretty good idea of what Colin would say---none of it good, all of it loud. "I meant, why do I have to close my eyes?"

He shifted. "Feels strange to have you looking at me, I guess."

"I like to," I said without thinking. "Besides, it's not fair. You're looking at me."

He held back a smirk, only partway successfully. "Suit yourself."
