First Line Friday: Can You Lose the Unibrow? by Sally Burbank

July 10, 2020 by Suzie Waltner 6 Comments

 

Ok, I’m sharing more than the first line this week because you just don’t get the full effect without the first paragraph. This book has been on my tbr for a few months and can finally fit it into my schedule.

 

 

 

 

About the Book

Fat, frumpy, forty-year-old physician seeks handsome, smart, Shakespeare aficionado. Hmm. Hardly the dating website bio to woo a husband, but Dr. Sheri Morris is determined to find true love before her biological clock ticks out. Enter nerdy, unibrowed Greg Palmer, who decides to practice his rusty dating skills on the dowdy doctor before pursuing a serious wife contender. The unpromising duo forms an accountability pact called “Operation Soulmate”, where they agree to mentor each other as “friends only”, while they shape up and seek out perfect spouses. Greg agrees to lose his outdated haircut and ghastly unibrow, while Sheri commits to losing thirty pounds and toning down her hair. Four months into their grueling transformation, Greg meets the woman of his dreams online. That’s when Sheri realizes she’s fallen in love with Greg. What now? Make him jealous or seek out someone new? Will Sheri and Greg discover their true soulmate before it is too late? The course of true love never did run smooth… William Shakespeare

    I don’t believe I’ve seen “unibrow” in a title before. It caught my eye!

    I just bought this. That first line is glorious!

    Happy Friday!
    On my blog I’m sharing the first lines from Start With Me by Kara Issac: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2020/07/10/first-line-friday-143/. It’s a fantastic novel! Currently I’m reading The Trouble With Love by Toni Shiloh so I’ll share from there.

    Hope you have a wonderful weekend! ❤
