OK, this seems outside the realm of some of the books here, but variety is good, don't you think?
My teaser is from Secrets of a Mysterious Older Woman -- a memoir about a woman who's led an unusual life, to say the least. It includes divorce, life as a comedienne, writer, dancer, singer, business woman ... even star or a cabaret show. Her thoughts: don't get bogged down in societal rules that prevent you from living life to the fullest.
[[And with his childlike joie de vivre and looney sense of humor he was a disarming departure from the driven American businessmen I knew. And I was just ripe for the kind of pampering a European man knows how to give, when he’s in the mood. ]]
This leads directly to ... [[MOW Secret #l5: Beware! French-speaking Swiss professors on sabbatical are supremely seductive.]]
I like your teaser. I went to goodreads to find out more about the book. It sounds really good! I'm putting it on my wish list. I love the cover. Here's my teaser.
