Woo hoo, we made it to another Friday!! So, now it’s time for some fun and that means Friday 56 ;). This week, I have something extra, too…a giveaway, so read to the end *G*.
I glared. “I am not. And you can’t possibly know that.” –Mac in Faefever by Karen Marie Moning.
**Note this is the 3rd book in the series. Read order is: Darkfever, Bloodfever, Faefever, Dreamfever and Shadowfever
I’ll admit, I’m a huge Fever series (helllo JZB!!!) fan. I was lucky enough to come by not one, but 2, HARDBACK copies of Faefever. So, I’m sharing the wealth…and that’s what’s up for grabs. Entering is easy, just leave me your Friday 56 in the comments. Haven’t done it before? Grab the closest (doesn’t have to be your current #Fridayreads) book, turn to page 56 and give us the 5th sentence. You can give a few around it, too if you’d like. By entering, you’ve read the rules and disclaimers for any of mine or Shiloh’s contests and agree to abide by the terms. I’ll draw a comment at random and post the winner by next Friday here on the blog. Happy reading!

“Ted McConnell is a typical Gadget Guy.” lol not very exciting this time. I absolutely LOVE JZB and have read KMM’s latest post about 50 times!! I would love to win a copy of this, since I only have this series in digital format. Thanks for the awesome contest!

In fact, the fellow was imagining Drina in the boots and nothing else and doing things to her that… well, he wouldn’t say they were gross, but they were disturbingly hot images and made him withdraw quickly from the guy’s mind and scowl at him irritably.

Sara looked at her watch, praying that Jeffrey would show up on time and take her away from all of this.

“There are ten reasons engraved into your neck why I shouldn’t,” he said
Oh my sweet Nicholas Roman and Kate Everborne from Laura Wright’s Eternal Kiss….
I wanted to stop thinking, to run, but there was no way around that for all I knew it’d be irrelevant to run.

Love that Moning series. Good luck all
It was the “beautiful girl” part that flung a noose around my foot, the voice that snagged it tight. I raked a hand through my recently butchered hair and looked down at my dark, baggy clothes.

For over 30 years his home had withstood the summer’s tropical coastal storms. Then came Katrina! When the first surge of water hit, flooding the ground floor, Chuck climbed to the second story. When the water kept rising, he knew better than to climb into his attic because there were no windows there from which to escape. So he anxiously waited by a second story window, hoping the water wouldn’t reach that high and he’d be safe. But it did.
-Between Hell & High Water, Kay Kuzma & Brenda Walsh
