In the big house - and Shelby would always think of it as the big house - she sat in her husband's big leather chair at his big, important desk. The color of the chair was expresso. Not brown. Richard had been very exact about that sort of thing. The desk itself, so sleek and shiny, was African zebra wood, and custom made for him in Italy. When she'd said - just a joke - that she didn't know they had zebras in Italy, he'd given her that look. The look that told her despite the big house, the fancy clothes and the fat diamond on the fourth finger of her left hand, she'd always be Shelby Ann Pomeroy, two steps out of the bumpkin town in Tennessee where she was born and raised.

The Liar by Nora Roberts

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Jenn/ MizB of A Daily Rhythm

Happy Birthday to my son Caleb! Cole loves his Uncle Caleb.
