Tuesday Intros 6/12 - First Chapter/Paragraph and Teaser

First Chapter First Paragraph - Tuesday Intros Hosted by Bibliophile By The Sea


Every Tuesday I will participate in the Tuesday Intro First Chapter-First Paragraph Intros.
These are books we decided to read based on the first paragraph or so. Then find another “Teaser” in the book somewhere to catch our interest.

I Chose Deadly Descendant (Book 2 of the Nikki Glass series) by Jenna Black

Prologue:

There's nothing like breaking things to lift a girls spirits when she's had a lousy day. I'd been having a lot of lousy days lately.
I hefted a fat ballpoint pen, wondering if it was heavy enough to break one of the bottles I'd lined up on the opposite side of the clearing. Only one way to find out.
I sighted at a little eight-ounce Coke bottle, then pulled back my arm and threw the pen at it with all the strength I could muster. Pens aren't exactly aerodynamic, so my weapon's flight path was erratic at best. But seeing as I was a descendant of Artemis, goddess of the Hunt, I had infallible aim. The pen tinked against the Coke bottle, making it waver on the fallen log I'd dragged into the clearing to hold my targets. Waver but not fall or break. Having infallible aim didn't mean I had the pitching arm of a Major League Baseball player.

And here is a juicy little teaser Kindle location 3000
 (Nikki POV looking at Jamaal)
His jeans clung lovingly to his butt and thighs, and I decided the rear view was just as mouthwatering as the front view.
And then he stood up straight, a black and red football jersey in his hand, and I got a look at his naked back.
