Teaser Tuesday (25): ROME




Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read    
  • Open to a random page
  • 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!)
  • Share the title and author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
ROME by Jay Crownover
Marked Men #3
Expected publication date: January 7, 2014 

I loved the previous books in this series and all the great characters. Rome and Cora's book is no exception. Jay Crownover does not disappoint.


Rome (Marked Men, #3)
 
 Teaser from eARC 12%:
 
"What did you call me?"
 
"Captain No-Fun."
 
He let out a chuckle that sounded rusty from lack of use and he shook his head at me.
 
"Staff Sergeant No-Fun is more accurate."
 
Teaser from eARC 38%:
 
"Don't be scared, Captain No-Fun. We got this."
 
 
Book Blurb:

Cora Lewis is a whole lot of fun, and she knows how to keep her tattooed bad boy friends in line. But all that flash and sass hide the fact that she’s never gotten over the way her first love broke her heart. Now she has a plan to make sure that never happens again: She’s only going to fall in love with someone perfect.

Rome Archer is as far from perfect as a man can be. He’s stubborn and rigid, he’s bossy and has come back from his final tour of duty fundamentally broken. Rome’s used to filling a role: big brother, doting son, super soldier; and now none of these fit anymore. Now he’s just a man trying to figure out what to do with the rest of his life while keeping the demons of war and loss at bay. He would have been glad to suffer it alone, until Cora comes sweeping into his life and becomes the only color on his bleak horizon.

Perfect isn’t in the cards for these two, but imperfect might just last forever . . .
