Happy Friday! I’m away from home this week watching a co-worker’s dog. So really, I could go home anytime I want but for me, pet and house sitting are just an excuse for a staycation and spending the majority of the weekend reading.
I don’t know about you, but my September TBR list has exploded. Who else is looking forward to so many good books coming out next month? Jessica R. Patch has a new Love Inspired Suspense you can grab September 1 just in time for the long Labor Day weekend.
About the Book
A blank memory. A new life.
But her borrowed time just ran out
Two years after Grace Thackery washed up on a small-town Mississippi riverbank, she has the first clue about the life she doesn’t remember: someone wants her dead. And while search-and-rescue director Hollis Montgomery’s determined to protect her, the secrets of her past are darker than they expected. Can the bond between Grace and Hollis survive her true identity…and an assassin?

Today on my blog I’m sharing the first few lines from An Informal Affair by Heather Gray, which is the book I am currently reading. I’m on chapter 17 so I’ll share that chapter’s first line here. “Lia awoke to sunshine and blue skies.”
I hope you have a nice weekend!
Happy Friday!
Today on my blog I am sharing the first line from Finding Lady Enderly by Joanna Davidson Politano: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2019/08/22/first-line-friday-98/. I am just getting into the book, so I will share from chapter 2.
“I clutched the edge of my seat and rested my forehead on the shuddering train window.”
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading!
Whaaa? This book sounds amazing! Thank you for sharing it…i will be looking into it!
I think I have that book somewhere in my pile!
My first line is from Finding Lady Enderly:
I do not wish for all my dreams to come true. After all, nightmares are one type of dream. -Diary of a Substitute Countess
Spitalfields, London’s East End, 1871
For one blessed moment, I was beautiful.
This book sounds intriguing and like a very good page turner! I love the mysterious looking cover! This is the first line of the book: “I really like it, don’t you?” Ella asked. From the book “Lilac Lane” by Ann Swann
Wow! That’s intense. On my blog, I’m featuring The Trail Boss’s Bride by Erica Vetsch. Since it’s my current read, I’ll share the first line from Chapter 9. “Kitty had never seen so much rain.” I hope you will have a wonderful weekend.
Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing the first lines from You Belong With Me by Tari Faris: “Was she really the only one left who cared about this town?”

Today on my blog I shared the first line from King’s Shadow by Angela Hunt but it’s also my current read so I’ll share the first line from chapter 23 here: “Anyone who studied Herod in the days following Aristobulus’s death would not doubt his deep and sincere grief.” Happy reading!
Happy Friday!
On my blog, I shared the first couple of lines of a book I recently finished – The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang. Here, though, I’ll be sharing the first lines of one of the books I’m currently reading – Wild Savage Stars by Kristina Perez.
“The waves mocked her.
Discordant laughter swelled in Branwen’s mind and twisted her heart. She couldn’t remain on the ship one moment longer. Her skin itched.”
Wild Savage Stars is the sequel to Kristina Perez’s Sweet Black Waves, which is a Tristan & Eseult retelling. I’m enjoying it so far and I hope you liked the first few lines I shared.
Hope you have a great weekend!
Sounds like a book I would love! Have a wonderful weekend!
Enjoy your pet sitting weekend. 🙂
I’m sharing on my blog the first line from Grace in Deep Waters by Christine Dillon.
The radio dominated the room.
