[Meme] Teaser Tuesday - How Beauty Saved the Beast by Jax Garren



Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!

Just do the following:

1. Grab your current read.
2. Open to a random page.
3. 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!)
4. Share the title and author too so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teasers!
Travis put a restraining hand on her arm. Jolie could've easily broken his hold, but she paused anyway for him to say, "Hauk will have my head if I let you do something stupid. So keep my head attached to my body. Stay in the car." Yup. Travis was her babysitter. Great.

This teaser is from How Beauty Saved the Beast by Jax Garren. It is the second book in the Tales of the Underlight series. I am kind of having a Jax Garren / Tales of the Underlight week on the Blog. A review for book one, How Beauty Met the Beast, will be up soon. Jax Garren makes a special stop here Friday to talk about the series, and then I will share my review of book two! Exciting right?
Jolie Benoit left her old life behind to become an agent of the Underlight. Training under Sergeant Wesley Haukon, she’s honing her combat skills, all the while coping with the intense sexual attraction she feels for Hauk. She keeps their friendship casual, but when his high school sweetheart transfers into their division, Jolie finds herself grappling with jealousy.

The Underlight gave Hauk a purpose, but he can’t escape his past completely. The physical and emotional scars from the fire that killed seven fellow Army Rangers will mark him forever. Jolie sends his protective instincts into overdrive, but he’s convinced he’ll never be worthy of her love.

Hauk is determined to keep Jolie from harm. But when the Order of Ananke ambushes them with a new weapon that neutralizes Hauk, making him vulnerable, it’s Jolie who must tap into her hidden strengths to rescue him—or risk losing him forever…
Share your teaser with me!
