I haven't done a TT in quite a while - it may be due to laziness - but I've recently read this book that I just had to share.
Katana
By Cole Gibsen
My Teaser
As it had in the mall parking lot, a calm focus flooded through me and pushed the confusion from my mind.
This one is inexperienced with a blade, the voice whispered. It won’t take much to bring him down.
I felt the unfamiliar smile return to my lips—this was going to be fun. I dodged the outstretched blade inches before my skin was to be torn apart by sharpened metal.
Spinning behind the first attacker, I ducked low to ground, kicked my leg, and swept his feet out from under him. He landed on his back and groaned.
The next attacker circled me, his eyes darting nervously back and forth between me and his fallen comrade.
His body was rigid as he waited for an opportunity to move in.
This one is looking for a hole in our defense. We mustn’t give him one.
“Sounds good to me,” I whispered.
The attacker hesitated.
I straightened my stance. “Yeah that’s right, I’m talking to myself! What of it?”

I was deliberating between a fight scene and a romantic scene but decided against the romantic one because this book is more on Rileigh discovering her inner samurai. It focuses a lot on the love story between Rileigh and Kim and also them in their past lives, but I really liked ALL of the fight scenes. It's a little long, but well, I couldn't find any shorter ones that were nice.:/
This teaser also shows how snarky and kickass our heroine is. Haha. KATANA releases in March this year, so look out for it!
