and the first line is…
Why did I take that left turn?
Their whirlwind romance takes the hard road toward happily-ever-after as disaster tests their love and their faith in God’s goodness.
Sophie Shultz smiles at her future even when she doesn’t feel like it. After a lifetime of fearing she’d never fit in anywhere, she’s found a place to belong in the small town of Big Prairie. When a country drive leaves this city girl stranded in the mud, the cowboy who stops to help gives her plenty to smile about. For real. Lance Carson is tall, handsome, and kind, if a little on the quiet side—not to mention the owner of Big Prairie’s celebrated vineyard. Her adopted hometown keeps getting better…
Lance has always preferred solitude, but when he rescues Sophie, he develops a new appreciation for companionship. It doesn’t take long for him to lose his heart as she fills the aching void life’s disappointments have left behind. But a feud with his wild brother has put him in a hard spot, pushing him to a decision that will ruin his relationship with many of Big Prairie’s citizens—and devastate Sophie. Before he can figure out how to tell her, someone tattles on his plans.
As their relationship is put to the test, conflict presses in from every side. Can this rapidly grown romance sink its roots deep enough to weather the storms, or will Lance and Sophie lose their way?

May 1875
Elizabeth
A whimsical breeze rustled the paper beneath Elizabeth’s pen as she wrote in the garden, but she held the sheet firmly against the table with her left hand and it as not carried aloft.
MRS. LINCOLN’S SISTERS by Jennifer Chiaverini

Just before Maddie unlocked the door to her office, she straightened the name plaque on the wall: MADISON GRAYSON, MARRIAGE AND FAMILY THERAPIST.
‘On a Coastal Breeze by Suzanne Woods Fisher’

….All This Time: A Walker Family Novel by Melissa Tagg…
A single, strained scan of the church’s hollowed interior was all it took for the whispers of Bear McKinley’s past to turn to bellows.
blessings, Tina

The Best We’ve Been, A Thatcher Sisters Novel by Beth K. Vogt…
I was waiting. Again. She should be here by now. Where was she?

Hello! 🙂
Today on my blog I’m sharing the first line from If I Were You by Lynn Austin. I’m currently on chapter 11, so I’ll share from there.
“USA 1950
Eve barely slept.”
Hope you have a great weekend filled with awesome reading time. 🙂❤📚
I’m sharing the first line from Stay With Me by Becky Wade on my blog today. “Like Papa Bear in the Goldilocks story, Sam Turner had discovered a strange woman sleeping in the bed of a house he owned.” Happy weekend!
Happy Friday! My first line is from “Doesn’t She Look Natural?” by Angela Hunt:
“A grieving woman, I’ve decided, is like a creme brulee: she begins in a liquid state, endures a period of searing heat, and eventually develops a scablike crust.”
I’m sharing the opening line of Out of the Embers by Amanda Cabot:
Someone was watching.
This is the first line from The Heart of a Hero by Susan May Warren:
In the daylight, Jake Silver wasn’t the devil.
Hope it is right to leave a sci-fi opener, it’s romance too. From Cleavon Power’s The Rocket Man Cometh: epacube had failed, Gary broke his heart and Kathi was left hold the blood-soaked end of a kitchen knife.
On my blog I shared the first line from Forever Home by Amy Grochowski
“A sensible Amish woman aspired to marry, as Lydia Miller was reminded daily.”
