Being the book lover that I am and having finished reading a great book, I decided to participate in Teaser Tuesdays today.
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading, which I discovered over at Readin N Writin with Patricia. 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!
MY TEASER
“Each piece of jewelry felt like chains of bondage, and the clothing he had slipped to her made her burn in shame. Never had she dressed so provactively, but the garments he asked her to wear for him turned her into a Jezebel.” A Stray Drop of Blood by Roseanna M. White, pg 76
Reading a good book? ~Do share
Reminds me a bit of "Blood of Flowers", a bit of historical fiction set in the old Ottoman Empire. It's about a young woman with a gift for weaving rugs who is forced to become a concubine at one point. Sad in a way, but she perseveres.

Fun and most enjoyable.

Neat idea! Wish I had my favorite book handy- I loaned it out!
It's never too late for a teaser, Wanda. Glad you decided to join in. That's an intriguing one.
The book sure sounds interesting.
