Teaser Tuesday 68: A Man to Die For

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 book or recent read.
* Share a few “teaser” sentences from somewhere in the book.
* BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (Make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away. You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
* Share the title and author so that other participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teaser!

Felipe Salazar's answer: prove, somehow, that he is an innocent man. He's been in disguise for so long, he’s not even sure who he is anymore. But he knows one thing—he's waited all his life for Carrie. And he's not about to let her get away...
