Teaser Tuesday: Vampire Dimitri by Colleen Gleason

•
I forgot the book I wanted to start on the train this morning. Fortunately I had my ereader with me so I was able to read some more of this book instead! The teaser comes from page 34:

Not for the first time, Maia wondered if she'd made a mistake in selecting such a potentially scandalous costume. But she's loved it the moment the dressmaker showed her the design, and that was the whole purpose of masquerade balls - anonymously walking the line of propriety.

Please note that this quote comes from the egalley version of this book and may therefore change in the final printing.


Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading. Head on over to find out all about it, and how to join in!

    Let me know how you find it.
    I read the Gardella Chronicles from Gleason. Liked it, but there was something missing! The series had a great potential but never got to the top!

    Don't you hate when you forget or misplace a book? Glad you had something else with you to pass the time--it made for an intriguing teaser. The Frog Prince

    I don't normally read vampire stories but, I must say, your teaser has peeked my interest. I want to know, what is that costume she's wearing?

    I like that teaser. Sounds sexy. Are you liking this? Cuz I couldn't get far in Voss. But I was intrigued by Corvindale and Maia. Should I try it?

    The character is right - so many people think if they dress up in a costume they can leave their personailty behind at home too - and become a whole new person if they so desire :)
