Hey! I love hockey, and I love it when I find a hockey-playing hero.
I’m a little confused though about the disclaimer. Is this book a clean read or not? I like the summary. 😀
I just finished My Phony Valentine and loved it! So good. I also finished Under Fire by Lynn Blackburn earlier this week. This first line:
One Year, Three Months, Twenty-Seven Days Earlier
US Secret Service Agent Tessa Reed was no stranger to hangovers.
That first line applies to me about half of the time, I think.
haha!
That is a doosey of a first line, for sure. Sounds good. Have a terrific week.

Dawson City, Yukon
June 1902
Adeline Byrant, or rather Moerman, since she’d been forced to marry Sam Moerman last year, tried her best to sleep.
REMEMBER ME by Tracie Peterson
ooo i’m intrigued!
Beautiful cover, can’t wait to read. Love your books Courtney.
Here’s the first line from a book I’m planning to read : “Adriana Starr didn’t want her mother and little brother to stop breathing the way her father had”.
River to Redemption – Ann H, Gabhart
great book!
I love the cover. Oh, the first line… I think it’s setting the tone of the story. Thanks for bringing the book to my attention.
I ended up reading the sample on Amazon and then buying the book. It looks so cute, and I usually don’t read contemporary romance. 😀
that IS a big shift for you! haha yay!!
Yeah, you know I love my historicals. But I do love hockey, and I couldn’t resist a hunky hockey player who likes a curvy girl. Hee hee.
Okay, I had to get my hair cut, so I took my kindle with me for while I was waiting. Wouldn’t you know it? I didn’t have to wait about five minutes. I snatched a little more story while the stylist wasn’t talking, and now I REALLY have to get to work (so I can listen to the hockey game tonight!), but I’m loving it so far. I can’t wait to find out what happens next. 😀
Murphy’s Law lol
Happy Friday!
I’m currently reading Memory Lane by Becky Wade.
“After dark that night, Leigh returned from her long journey to bring him his medicine. Thank God, Jonah thought, when he heard her enter Remy’s small house. She’d arrived with the good stuff.”
I hope you have a great weekend!
such a fun book!
The fake dating trope is not my favorite at all, but if it’s a hockey player? I’m here for it! Happy Reading!
exactly lol
My first line this week comes from The Last Chance Cowboy by Jody Hedlund:
Chicago, Illinois. March 1871
“ It’s a boy.” Catherine Remington held the squalling infant upside down by his ankles, making sure he didn’t inhale mucus.
love her books!
I keep hearing great things about this book!
me too!
