I decided to combine the Teaser Tuesday, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading, with the First Chapter ~ First Paragraph Tuesday Intros, hosted by Bibliophile By the Sea.
Today I feature “Wicked” by Jennifer L. Armentrout which is the first in a new series and came out yesterday. Sadly I hadn’t had real time to read (go away exams), so this opening and the teaser are new to me as well and now I really want to read it. So frustrating!
Opening paragraph:
Sweat dotted my brow. Tendrils of red hair clung to my neck. My legs felt like I’d been sitting in a sauna. I was pretty sure there was a waterfall of sweat coursing between my breasts, and that alone put my mood somewhere between slapping someone and pushing them in front of a trolley.
Teaser from 18 %:
With only a few hours of sleep before my morning class at Loyola, I was Cranky McCranky-Pants, especially since I skipped the pain pill so I didn’t risk the chance I’d start drooling on myself any more than normal.

The opening definitely lets you know it’s HOT! I’m curious about where the book takes place and what’s happening. I hope you enjoy the story.
My Tuesday post features THE YANKEE CLUB.

I like the character’s voice. Just enough snark to be interesting but not whiney.

Living in the south, the opening felt like home. And the teaser is hilarious. I have this on my wish list.
