Teaser Tuesday

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of  Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!

Just do the following:

          ~Grab your current read.

          ~Open to a random page.

          ~Share two "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page. (Sometimes I cheat a bit on this one and do a few more sentences.)
          ~Be careful not to include spoilers! (make sure that what you share doesn't give to much away.               You don't want to ruin the book for others.)

          ~Share the title and author, so the other TT participants can add the book to their TBR lists if they like your teaser.  :0)

This week I am posting a teaser from "Dark Eden" by Patrick Carman.  The edition that I am quoting from is an ARC, so it is subject to change in the final product.

It was a big sorry, full with meaning, and she understood:  I was sorry for my mistake; but much more, I was sorry she had to be afraid.  I had imagined what this moment would be like.  She'd get up and leave and never come back or run through the fort knocking on doors, telling everyone what I'd done.
