·Share two (2) "teaser" sentences from somewhere on that page

·Make sure to share the title and the author so other TT participants can add the book to their TBR piles.
Dangerous promises and beguiling threats swirl together in a dozen stories of enchantments dark and light by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Marr. Uncanny and unexpected creatures appear from behind bushes, rise from beneath the seas, or manifest from seasonal storms to pursue the objects of their attention—with amorous or sinister intent—relentlessly.
From the gentle tones of a storyteller’s cadences to the terror of a blood sacrifice, tales of favorite characters from Marr’s Wicked Lovely novels mix with accounts of new characters for readers to fall in love with...or to fear.
Lush, seductive, and chilling, Melissa Marr’s stories revel in the unseen magic that infuses the world as we know it.

My Teaser:
"I know you would." Irial smiled to let Niall know that this was a good thing, but the taste of Niall's guilt was still heavy. Neither of them commented on what that meant about Niall's loyalties-or the choices Irail had made in the past. Choices that put Niall second to the court. There was nothing to say that would lessen the ugliness of those choices.
