It's Tuesday! It's time to share your excerpts and teasers from books we are currently reading, have read or are planning to read. So, feel free to join us by sharing the first paragraph or (a few) of a book you are reading or thinking about reading soon. This meme is guaranteed to increase your TBR :)
Please link your blog post using Mr. Linky below. Make sure the link you enter is the direct link to your Tuesday post, not the main link to your blog. Thank you!
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, now being hosted by Ambrosia at The Purple Booker. 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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
I want to read this soon. It's a short novella and looks good. I love cruise cozy mysteries.
First Chapter
The Oceania was paradise at sea - there was no other way to describe it...
Teaser...
She froze where she stood. The ballroom was in a panic...
Kendra Phillips is living the dream. She works in a luxury cruise liner as a catering director, gets to travel to international destinations, and experiences food from around the world on a daily basis. After years of working in the hotel industry, she feels right at home in Golden Circle Cruise Liner.
That is until the cruise is shaken up with a death on sea.
The CEO of one of their biggest corporate clients was poisoned while eating blackberry cheesecake. With the 500-person occupancy rate of the Oceania, anyone onboard could have killed the CEO. A successful businessman like Mr. Dennis Harmon would have more foes than friends. Now, all eyes are on Kendra to find the culprit. Suddenly, her dream job has turned into her worst nightmare.
Now, Kendra’s on a deadline. She has to find the killer before the ship docks else she’ll lose any chance of catching the culprit and saving her reputation and the company’s.
What do you think? Would you keep reading?
The teaser has me interested. I hope you enjoy it when you read it!
ReplyDeleteThat looks interesting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a way to ruin a vacation, right? It does sound good.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds intriguing! We are going on a cruise in a few months and I'm torn between wanting to read a bunch of mysteries set on cruises or avoid them!
