Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by The Purple Booker. If you want to join in grab your current read, flick to a random page, select two sentences (without spoilers) and share them in a blog post or in the comments of The Purple Booker.
This week my teaser comes from romance read The Foxe and the Hound by R.S. Grey. Grey’s romances have become a little bit of a guilty pleasure for me and I absolutely loved this one. It was just so funny and cute and has a giant puppy. Perfect for pulling me out of the slump I seemed to have fallen into.
My Teaser
Eventually, I will have to leave the agency or learn to put up with Lori in a healthier manner…like killing her with kindness, or murdering her with smiles, or disemboweling her with compliments. That sort of thing.

When your life is a hot mess at twenty, it’s cute. At twenty-seven…well, not so much.
It’s just that my lofty dreams—making it as a real estate agent, paying rent on time, showering daily—have stayed just that: dreams. Oh, and love? I’ve decided love might be a little ambitious for me at the moment. Instead, I’ve settled for the two guys who will never leave me: Ben & Jerry.
That is, until Dr. Adam Foxe takes up residence as the town’s new vet.
With his strong jaw, easy confidence, and form-fitting scrubs, it’s not long before every housewife in Hamilton is dragging neglected tomcats in for weekly checkups.
Like everyone else, I’m intrigued. Even after I spoil my chance at a good first impression, he still offers me a proposition I can’t refuse: play his girlfriend at a family function and he’ll hire me as his real estate agent. Welcome to love in the 21st century.
It’s too bad I underestimated Adam’s irresistible charm and the undeniable attraction that burns between us. The day he pins me to the wall and silences me with a kiss, the line between reality and ruse begins to blur. Every teasing touch brings me to my knees. Every kiss promises more.
It looks like my hot mess of a life is about to get a little hotter.

Romance isn’t my thing, but I love that quote.
Mine this week is from a cozy mystery: https://wp.me/p3Nz8P-1ml

Romance is definitely my thing 🙂 Especially when it’s funny and involves a vet.

I normally can’t stand romance unless it is part of an adventure/fantasy, but if it makes me laugh and has a decent plot line, I’ll read it. My teaser this week is from one of the few romance series I like and your book seems like it has that same kind of personality. Enjoy it!
Laura 🙂

There probably wasn’t a huge plot line but I do love a good romance. Give me a good looking Vet and some animals and I’m sold 🙂

This does sound like a light, fun read. I am reading The Invisible Library by Genevieve Cogman from my TBR mountain this week. Happy reading!

Yeah, I think rom com appeals more to me at the moment than military sci fi 🙂
