But did I get your attention?
Well, that's what today is all about! Time for the Hookers and Hangers blogfest sponsored by Falling 4 Fiction!Today is Hooker day so I will start with my top Hooks:
- Huddled in the farthest booth, Cooper's mysterious caller was easy to spot.
- Geri steadied her aim and emptied a charge.
- With sagging shoulders, Cooper dragged himself over to a shaded bench in a poor attempt to mask his holy #*$% reaction.
- "So Dawson is going to play Cooper's Fairy Godmother and get him into the ball."
- Jared pulled Miki closer.
- Geri strutted into headquarters wearing a silky, amethyst, haltered evening gown that flowed to the floor with a high side slit and sparkly purple pumps.
- A whisper in Geri's earpiece sent a shiver down her back.
- "So how long have you been a spy?"
Coming up in August:
Camp Nano!
The Fairy Tale Madness Fest, August 13-17
Deana's Gearing Up To Get An Agent month long event!
Kyra Lennon's blog tour August 6-19 to promote her fun new YA book, GAME ON!
Lastly, I just got back from a lovey vacation in Hilton Head! It was my first time and it was gorgeous! I will be sharing pictures here and there...
Hope you had a nice weekend and did some writing! I didn't write so much as read - finished 2 books! It takes me a while. Reviews coming soon!
The last two work perfectly together. I'm intrigued. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up about August, Tara.
I really enjoyed your hooks. Especially 'A whisper in Geri's earpiece sent a shiver down her back.' That makes me want to read what happens next. Nice job. See you at Camp Nano.

ReplyDeleteI like the last one!
ReplyDeleteGood hookers. I'm curious about the story now and what it's about.
ReplyDeleteLove the fairy godmother line! Made me curious. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat hookers, Tara! Love the third one, it makes me want to know what happened!
ReplyDeleteNice hooks! Loved the one about Geri taking aim.
ReplyDeleteThose lines really hooked me- they have so much bang inside. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteOh I knew exactly what type of book this was from that first hooker. Awesome, Tara!!
ReplyDeleteThe last line sums it all up. Great job!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! The voice in this story is so catchy! Can't wait for me to get my butt in gear so I can read more chapters :) Great hookers!!
ReplyDeleteLove the hooks! The first and last one especially!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving this blog hop :D
My fave is the one about Cooper's fairy godmother getting him into the ball. Quirky and I like it.
ReplyDeleteI love these. Fairy Godmother one is probably my fav, but I also love the whisper in the earpiece and the last one too.
ReplyDeleteGreat job! Can't wait to read the hangers.
I really do love a bunch of these. My favorites are the Fairy Godmother one and he whisper down the spine one.
ReplyDeleteOooh, what tantalizing lines. I especially enjoyed "Geri steadied her aim" excellent.
ReplyDeleteI also loved the last two - my favorites! Glad to hear you enjoyed a lovely vacation!
ReplyDeleteWahoo! Great lines Tara! Love them all!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the shout-out for our blogfest!
I like the whisper in the earpiece. Whole different idea than a whisper in the ear, but makes me curious if that is the same kind of shiver :)
ReplyDeleteI love the last one!
ReplyDeleteI think you have awesome hooks, esp like "So how long have you been a spy?"
ReplyDeleteLOVE that last one Tara! Thanks so much for participating!

I agree with Deana, that Geri sounds like a character! Great openers, Tara - and glad you had a nice vacation!
ReplyDeleteOoh, this sounds like there is heaps going on - is it all from the same story?
ReplyDeleteThese are all great. Hard to pick out a fave. I'm excited to read this!!
