Between Two Shores

My First Line:

Kahnawake, Quebec
August 1744


"I told you, I'm not staying" Catherine Stands-Apart drew back from her sister's touch and planted her feet wide at the edge of their mother's grave.

Happy Friday! My first line is from "Falling for Grace" by Janet W. Ferguson:

"It was finally over."

LOVED this book! I actually have a giveaway going on for a paperback copy of it on my blogiversary post from earlier this week :)


Today on my blog I shared the first line from American Omens by Travis Thrasher but it's also my current read so I'll share the first line from my current chapter (8) here: "'I believe.' Dowland said with all the conviction and soul he could muster." Hope you have a wonderful weekend with plenty of quality reading time! :)

Happy Friday! I’m sharing the first line from Death in the Stocks by Georgette Heyer on my blog today. Here is the second line:

“No lamp shone in the window but a full moon sailed in a sky the colour of sapphire, and lit the village with a pale light, as cold as the sheen on steel.”

I loved this book!

I'm featuring "The Seamstress" by Allison Pittman on my blog, but I've just started reading "Atoning for Ashes" by Kaitlin Covel, so I'll share that first line here:

Josie had always detested black.

Have a great weekend!

My first lines are from A Return of Devotion by Kristi Hunter

Marlborough, England. 1816

She should have been prepared. After all, she’d had two months to imagine this moment. In truth she’d done little else besides imagine all the possible scenarios, each one worse than the last.
But she hadn’t imagined this.

Between Two Shores is epic!
