In conjunction with the blog tour for The Experiment, I'll be posting an excerpt daily from the book. You can see the schedule for the tour here. Here's today's excerpt:
Juliet
I worked my way over to the bluff
and stood staring out over the moon bathed expanse. It was breathtaking. And it
fed my desire to fly again.
I spread my arms, lifted up onto
my toes, and smiled when a slight tingling feeling tickled my chest. I breathed
deeply and concentrated on the feeling, willing it to grow and spread across my
skin. The pressure beneath my ribs was something inside me wanting to break
free, but I just couldn’t manage to push it to the surface. I was so close. I
just needed that tiny element of danger. I jumped. I got maybe six inches off
the ground before I was tackled onto my back. The impact popped the air from my
lungs and I struggled for my next breath.
“Are you out of your freakin’
mind, Juliet? You could have died.” Brax straddled my stomach, pinning my arms
to the ground.
“Get off me, you anorexic brazzle
bear.” I bucked and kicked, finally wrapping my legs around his torso and
flipping him onto his back.
“Not bad for a girl, Blondie.” He
stood and brushed off the jungle’s undergrowth and mud from his clothes. He
didn’t bother helping me up.
I jumped to my feet and headed
back to the bluff. No stupid guy was going to tell Juliet Tripp what to do. Two
feet from the edge, his arm snaked about my belly, jerking me to a stop.
“Juliet, don’t be so arrogant,” he whispered in
my ear, sending a shiver down my spine. Read the Prologue and first 3 chapters here. Come back tomorrow for another excerpt.
