First Line Friday Autumn

 

If you’ve read the True Colors series by Grace Hitchcock, you’ve already “met” this author. Now, the first book in her first series is here.

 

 

About the Book

Willow Dupré never thought she would have to marry, but with her father’s unexpected retirement from running the prosperous Dupré sugar refinery, she is forced into a different future. The shareholders are unwilling to allow a female to take over the company without a man at her side, so her parents devise a plan–find Willow a spokesman king in order for her to become queen of the business empire.

Willow is presented with thirty potential suitors from the families of New York society’s elite group called the Four Hundred. She has six months to court the group and is told to to eliminate men each month to narrow her beaus until she chooses one to marry, ending the competition with a wedding. Willow reluctantly agrees, knowing she must do what is best for the business. She doesn’t expect to find anything other than a proxy . . . until she meets a gentleman who captures her attention, and she must discover for herself if his motives are pure.

    Happy Friday! My first line is from “Storing Up Trouble” by Jen Turano:

    “The truth of the matter was this – she, Miss Beatrix Waterbury, had been banished from New York, and all because she’d had the great misfortune of landing herself in jail… twice.”

    I can’t wait to read this book!

    Happy Friday!
    On my blog, I’m sharing the first line from Facing the Dawn by Cynthia Ruchti: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2021/03/05/first-line-friday-174/. It’s an AMAZING story. Highly recommend it. Currently I’m reading A Captain for Caroline Grey by Julie Wright so I’ll share from there.
    “Caroline’s embarrassment turned to anger that brewed and simmered until she felt as though she quite loathed the captain.”
    Hope you have a great weekend! ❤
