TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:
Grab your current read.
Let the book fall open to a random page.
Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
Please avoid spoilers!

My voice was stiff. "There isn't any."
He stopped buttoning midway up the shirt. "There isn't any what?"
"Central air," I whispered, barely able to speak.
