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 & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
Nameless
By Lili St. Crow
Tales of Beauty and Madness #1

Nameless comes out in Australia tomorrow and I really enjoy Lili St. Crow's books and this new series is definitely fun. I am sharing a tease of one of the sweetest moments in the book. Cami has a stutter and when she gets worked up, she can't speak properly, but Nico, the gorgeous guy that he is, can always calm her down..... check it out, swoon...
“Cami.” He caught her hands. His skin was warm, solid, real.“Book.”
The same old charm.“B-b-book.”
“Candle.” He was kneeling on her bed, and she saw the mess his hair had become. How late was it?
“C-candle.” Her breathing evened out. Her heart still hammered, but it wouldn’t explode. She could tell, now, that it would calm down. If she just gave it a little time.
He smelled of cigarette smoke, copper, the tang of whiskey. So he’d been at the decanters again.“Nico,” he whispered.
“Nico,” she whispered back. Relaxed all at once, a loosened string.
