[Teaser Tuesday] February 16, 2021

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme, originally 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!

Just mentioning that "indiscretion" had her simmering senses on the alert again. Did he feel it too, that constant, low hum of attraction? Something they both might wordlessly acknowledge but must determinedly ignore?

This teaser is from The Blustocking Duchess by Julia Justiss, and is the first book in the new Heirs in Waiting series. After reading The Duke and I, I felt the need to stumble back into the Regency era.

Her good friend...

Is suddenly a duke’s heir! Miss Jocelyn Sudderfeld is working at Edge Hall, indulging her love of translating ancient texts with her librarian father—and evading the need to marry! She’s always enjoyed a teasing friendship with estate manager Mr. Alex Cheverton. Until he unexpectedly becomes the duke’s heir. Now his first duty is to marry a suitable debutante, not consort with an earnest bluestocking like her… So where does that leave their friendship?

Share your teaser with me!
