The book I'm reading right now is by the hugely popular and NYT bestselling author Nora Roberts under the pseudonym J.D. Robb. Lieutenant Eve Dallas is the heroine, as always, in this particular book. While the series is 30+ books long, you can pick any to start with. The story is fairly easy to pick up.
From Page 2227 in my Kindle Pagecount (probably Pg 200 in a paperbook):
"He blends, and he blends. Mr. Smooth, Mr. Nice Guy, Mr. Harmless"
***
I am willing to bet he's not so harmless -- just biding his time so he can strike?
ReplyDeleteSounds ominous...wounder what's about to happen!
ReplyDeleteInteresting teaser this week!

This is Eve, our heroine, thinking about the killer..so @smellingcoffee and @Pam - you were right! It is ominous and creepy :)
ReplyDeleteNot harmless at ALL :D
Yeah I figured that all the smoothness was a front to something more sinister. Great teaser :)
ReplyDeleteYou can find my teaser at The Bookish Snob
I love Nora Roberts! I haven't read any of her Robb books yet, though. Good teaser! Here's my Teaser from Firelight. And I've got a big giveaway, too!
ReplyDeleteInteresting teaser...so unusual but fun.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read anything by this author yet.
Hi Dee,
ReplyDeleteGreat teaser lines this week.
I find J.D. Robb (Nora Roberts) is another of those authors that provides a little light reading, between all those much heavier tomes.
There is nothing too deep and sinister about the storylines and you can qute easily dip in and out of the books.

Mr Smooth, Mr Nice Guy - always the ones to be suspicious of in these books, don't you think?
ReplyDeletesounds like someone to be wary of. I like your blog, while I'm here I'm going to look around a bit :)
ReplyDeleteThe "nice guys" in JD Robb books are the scariest.
ReplyDeleteThat's an eerie teaser . . . you don't know what he might be up to!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE J D ROBB! Roarke is my ultimate candy on a stick :)
ReplyDeleteHmmmm Roarke where art thou???? Tis I your midget Eve wannabe ....
I agree that you can start this series anywhere. But it is nice to start at the beginning and watch the relationship between Eve and Roarke grow and deepen. I have two this week. My YA teaser is from Choker by Elizabeth Woods and my adult teaser is from Masques by Patricia Briggs. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed several books by Nora Roberts and some by J. D. Robb. I keep planning to read this series...it does sound very good.
ReplyDeleteHere's my teaser:

@Aisle B - made me burst out laughing :)
ReplyDeleteI enjoy this series although the last few books did leave me feeling a bit bored. But maybe I should try again ...
