Teaser Tuesday #2: Disruption by Jessica Shirvington


Hi guys!

I don't participate in Teaser Tuesday's that often, only once in a blue moon, but I felt like playing around today with my current read, Disruption by Jessica Shirvington.

TEASER:
"He hung his head, leaning it against the side of mine. "Because if we'd never met, I'd just be a neg. But now I'm a neg who knows what I'll never have, even though I want it more than anything. You've asked me to question everything, and I know stuff has been happening that isn't right and y family is at the centre of that. Things shouldn't be this way, but.......nothing has made me question the system more than this thing between you and me. I can't get you out of my mind."

What if a microchip could identify your perfect match?
What if it could be used against you and the ones you love?

Eight years ago, Mercer Corporation’s M-Bands became mandatory. An evolution of the smartphone, the bracelets promised an easier life. Instead, they have come to control it.

Two years ago, Maggie Stevens watched helplessly as one of the people she loves most was taken from her, shattering her world as she knew it.

Now, Maggie is ready. And Quentin Mercer – heir to the M-Corp empire – has become key to Maggie’s plan. But as the pieces of her dangerous design fall into place, could Quentin’s involvement destroy everything she’s fought for?

In a world full of broken promises, the ones Maggie must keep could be the most heartbreaking.

He turns his head and looks at me with danger-filled eyes. In three steps he's in front of me, his hands on my bare shoulders, fingers digging into my skin. "Fo, I'm a man, and you're a beautiful woman. But you're also a Level Ten, and when I look at you, especially when you're dressed like this, I can't think straight, because even though my brain tells me you're the most dangerous thing I've ever encountered, my heart.....my body--" His mouth snaps shut and he stares deep into my eyes.

I get it, what his heart and his body are doing, because mine are doing it too. I ache for [name removed due to spoilers], for everything about him. His smell, his touch, the sound of his voice, his presence. I tilt my head to the side and trail my fingers over his freshly shaved jaw line. He shuts his eyes and leans into my touch.....

In a world in crisis, children are the future. Part of the cure. Not now. Children are deadly. Marked one to ten. Fiona is a TEN. She just doesn't know it yet . . . She doesn't know her true strength.

Fiona doesn't remember going to sleep. But she has woken to find her entire world has changed - her house is abandoned and broken, and her neighbourhood is barren and dead. Even stranger is the tattoo on her right wrist that she doesn't remember getting but somehow knows she must cover at any cost. And she's right. When the honeybee population collapsed, a worldwide pandemic occurred and the government tried to bio-engineer a cure. But instead the vaccination turned people into ferocious, deadly beasts. They have been branded as a warning to unvaccinated survivors. Key people needed to rebuild society are protected inside a fortress-like wall. Fiona has awakened branded, alone and on the wrong side of the wall....
