Teaser Tuesday: River Marked by Patricia Briggs

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!

My teaser this week is from the wonderful River Marked by Patricia Briggs. This is the sixth in her Mercy Thompson series and it begins with a surprise wedding - a really interesting concept. Right now Adam and Mercy are on their honeymoon and are having their first married fight.
He'd gotten mad when he thought I was going to get mad at him for not telling me about the trailer. It was his belief that I would get mad about it that had hurt him. I wiggled my hips into a more comfortable position and tried to think like Adam -- a very smart person poisoned by testosterone.
This story has been great so far. I have laughed out loud quite a few times at Mercy's unique take on life and her quips. She is such a wonderful character - strong without being hard.

    Interesting teaser. Sounds like a fun book. I'm not sure what to think about a "surprise wedding," though!

    Here's my tease.
