Teaser Tuesday #37 and Top Ten Tuesday #27



Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Should Be Reading. Bloggers choose two
sentences out of our current read to peak others' curiosity.


Altered (Altered, #1)Altered by Jennifer Rush 
January 1st  2013

  

Teaser:

Five Seconds later, Same was behind the Jeep's wheel. He tore through the yard, kicking up clumps of grass with the spin of the tires. 


When you can’t trust yourself, who can you believe?

Everything about Anna’s life is a secret. Her father works for the Branch at the helm of its latest project: monitoring and administering treatments to the four genetically altered boys in the lab below their farmhouse. There’s Nick, Cas, Trev . . . and Sam, who’s stolen Anna’s heart. When the Branch decides it’s time to take the boys, Sam stages an escape, killing the agents sent to retrieve them.

Anna is torn between following Sam or staying behind in the safety of her everyday life. But her father pushes her to flee, making Sam promise to keep her away from the Branch, at all costs. There’s just one problem. Sam and the boys don’t remember anything before living in the lab—not even their true identities.

Now on the run, Anna soon discovers that she and Sam are connected in more ways than either of them expected. And if they’re both going to survive, they must piece together the clues of their past before the Branch catches up to them and steals it all away.



Top Ten is an original feature/weekly meme created here at
The Broke and the Bookish that features a great bookish top ten every week.

  4. Altered does sound good. I wonder why he is in such a hurry to leave. My teasers are from Shadow's Edge by Maureen Lipinski and She Can Tell by Melinda Leigh. Happy reading!
