It’s Friday and I am ready for the weekend. Did you see all the wonderful books nominated for The Christy Award this year? Any of your favorite 2018 releases miss the list?
This week, I’m sharing the first line from The Rescue by Tanya Eavenson
About the Book
Sometimes the path to freedom is found in an unexpected future.
Upon the death of her mother, Rosalind Standford’s life shatters, the pieces scattering to the wind when she is forced into a betrothal to a cunning banker. But when a telegram arrives announcing the man who captured her heart is on a train to Boston, Rosalind must hide her true feelings before the thin cord of her existence unravels the deadly secrets she keeps.
Cowboy Trent Easton returns to his roots in Boston society to find his childhood friend, the love of his heart. Instead he finds a broken woman engaged to a man close to her father’s age. Though she once rejected him, when Trent learns she’s in danger, he determines to do whatever it takes to keep her safe—even taking her to the altar in the black of night. But will his name and the remote wilds of his Texas ranch be enough to protect her? Or will freedom cost them their lives?

Great line! Happy Friday!!
My first lines are from Undercover Twin by Heather Woodhaven
Audrey Clark adjusted her crossbody bag as she stepped out, under the cover of stars. The atmosphere matched her mood, dark and uncomfortable
The book sounds like a very good read, and the cover is Beautiful! This is the first line from Reunited in The Rockies : Twenty – four hours ago, Jade Stephens had his live figured out.
Happy Friday!
Today on my blog I am sharing the first line from A Christmas Haven by Cindy Woodsmall and Erin Woodsmall. It’s a great Christmas novella that I am thoroughly enjoying. I’m currently on chapter 17, so I will share the first line from there.
“The sun hung low on the horizon as Arlen released twenty-four cows from the milking parlor into the pasture.”
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading!
Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing the first lines from Where Dandelions Bloom by Tara Johnson: “Gabriel Avery hit the unforgiving pavement with a grunt.”

Happy Friday!
Today on my blog I shared from Something Needs to Change by David Platt. Right now I’m about to start The Killing Tide by Dani Pettrey so I’ll share the first line from that here: “Fire ripped through Finn’s right shoulder, ricocheting down his arm.” Hope you have a great weekend!
The Killing Tide was fantastic!! Enjoy ❤️
Happy Friday! My first line(s) is from “I Don’t Chase the Garbage Truck Down the Street in My Bathrobe Anymore!” by Dianne Barker:
“Weddings make me laugh. It’s that pledge to the spouse, “All my worldly good I thee endow.” If my husband had only known!”
Great title!! 🙂
I’m sharing from Aiming for Love by Mary Connealy on my blog today, so I’ll share the second line:
“She smiled inside, but kept the emotion tucked away.”
Happy reading and have a great weekend!
