Rex Rising (Blurb)
In a world where parasites create new human races, Elei leads a peaceful life as an aircar driver — until a mysterious attack on his boss sends him fleeing with a bullet in his side and the fleet at his heels. Pursued for a secret he does not possess, he has but one thought: to stay alive. Yet his pursuers aren’t inclined to sit down and talk, and that’s not the end of Elei’s troubles. The two powerful parasites inhabiting his body, at a balance until now, choose this moment to bring him down, leaving Elei with no choice but to trust in people he barely knows in a mad race against time. It won’t be long before he realizes he must find out this deadly secret — a secret that might change the fate of his world and everything he has ever known — or die trying.
Rex Rising by Chrystalla Thoma
Book One of Elei's Chronicles
My Teaser for this week:
Biting back a retort, Elei took a deep breath and twisted from the knees, turning against the blade, cursing as pain exploded in his wounded side. The knife screeched against the hard skin covering his shoulder blade and upper back.

Ouch! Those lines were intense. Mine come from Regency Romance, Blood for Ink, by L.L. Muir:
"You tempt me to be just as you have painted me. Pray, bring a switch and meet me in Hyde Park Sunday afternoon, if you dare. - Mr. Lott"
In context, this part of the book made me laugh out loud!
Ouch! I could almost FEEL that! Thanks for sharing...and here's MY TUESDAY MEMES POST
Ooooo... I liked that excerpt! Totally fits the "teaser" title! I'm reading Save The Cat right now, so that wouldn't be much of a teaser excerpt, LOL!
