The vet handed Maggie Baxter a plastic specimen bag containing a pair of size-tiny, lavender thong panties extracted from her dog; but they were not hers. Or rather, they were hers now since she'd just paid $734 to have Dr. Carter surgically remove them from Kona's gut.
Also this week is Teaser Tuesdays.
Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!
Open to a random page of your current read and share a teaser sentence from somewhere on that page.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS!
Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers.
Here's mine from page 36:
She grabbed the bottle of silver tequila they'd bought on their anniversary trip to Cancun two years ago. It was almost empty. She yanked the cork out with her teeth, and looked down at Kona. His ears stuck out in what Dave had always called his "bat-wing look;" his I-just-got-up-and-can't do-a-thing-with-my-ears look.I'm enjoying this book. The character feels very real and the dog is adorable.
