Teaser Tuesday: The Madness of Lord Ian MacKenzie

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:




Grab your current read
Open to a random page
Share two "teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page

BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!
Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!


This week my teaser comes from The Madness of Lord Ian MacKenzie. This is the first book I've read by Jennifer Ashley and I really enjoyed it and was very impressed with her ability to write such an unconventional, yet convincing and heart-wrenching hero.
From page 105:


The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie (Leisure Historical Romance)
     "I've lost her, haven't I?"
     Mac landed next to him in the carriage with a thump, and slammed the door himself.
     "You never had her, Ian."
