Teaser Tuesdays

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly meme hosted by Miz B of Should Be Reading and asks you to :
1. Grab your current read
2. Open to a random page
3 . Share 2 "teaser" sentences also citing the title of the book and the author and in that way people can have great recommendations if they like the "teaser".
4. Please avoid spoilers!

"Don't Die," he whispered. "I'll save you." It was a foolhardy promise and one there wa
s no way to keep, but it hardened him, swelled in him, beat like his heart in his chest, and he knew he would try.

  1. Wonder why the title, Salt. I suppose if I read the book, I would know. Ha haa - hope you're getting your e mails because blogger comments STILL is not working. Aggravation! I'm off to the pool and quitting the blogosphere for the day. Ciao!
