Shanda’s Teaser:

“David had to smile. Silas was going bald- or, as he like to put it, his hairline was creeping over the top of his head looking for his ears. The lower two-thirds of his face was a deep brown, but just above his eyes, where the hat brim came, his skin was white as a sheet of paper.”
The Undaunted by Gerald N. Lund, page 430





Sheila’s Teaser:
“But I was wearing my jammies, a college sweatshirt and rain boots, and I remembered enough about the real world to know it was poor form for adults to approach children they didn’t know and ask them how old they were, particularly when the adult in question was dressed like a homeless person.”

Gravity Vs. The Girl By Riley Noehren, page 12




Hillary’s Teaser:
“The smile widened on the words, regaining a cockiness familiar from her days in Venice. But Siri was listening too hard to his voice to care. She tried to place it with that of the robber’s, but failed. Her assailant’s bravado had been muffled by the unmarked helmet he had worn. Still, this gentleman’s manner seemed very odd.”

Illuminations of the Heart by Joyce DiPastena, page 65

Shanda’s Teaser:

“Abish wasn’t sure, but she thought she saw a look pass between the two older boys and something of a smirk. She wouldn’t have been surprised if they’d laced the meat with some nasty tasting plant the way they were grinning.”
Abish by K.C. Grant, page 226





Sheila’s Teaser:

He warned them about the nature of the meals, about the possibility of rain, rattlesnakes and scorpions. …”Be prepared for very stiff legs and a numb bottom, because we will be spending about six to eight hours in the saddle on average a day.”

“Stop!” Molly laughed. “Are you trying to change our minds?”

He grinned, “No, I just don’t want you to have any illusions.”

Hillary’s Teaser:

“If we are to be truly happy, if we are to reach our full potential, I believe we must create a place for the Savior in our lives.”
