Grab your current read.

Let the book fall open to a random page.

Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.

You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

Please avoid spoilers!

“Simon sent messengers on ahead, demanding that Henry renew his oath to abide by the Provisions, and threatening the citizenry of London if they did not support the rebel cause.  The leading men of the city, who feared Simon and his band far more than their aging sovereign, agreed to side with the barons and renewed their pledge to abide by the Provisions.”
- Four Queens: The Provencal Sisters Who Ruled Europe by Nancy Goldstone
