First Line:

The screw through Cinder's ankel had rusted, the engraved cross marks worn to a mangled circle.

I loved this book!

Happy Friday!
Over on my blog, I'm sharing the first line from When He Found Me by Victoria Bylin: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2020/02/28/first-line-friday-125/. I'm currently finishing A Convenient Christmas Wedding by Regina Scott, so I will share a line from that book here.
"Nora woke on Christmas morning to the sound of voices calling."
Hope you have an excellent weekend full of fun and relaxing reading!

My first line is from The Land Beneath Us by Sarah Sundin
Camp Forrest, Tullahoma, Tennessee. Friday, June 11, 1943
Most men woke in a cold sweat when they dreamed of their own deaths, but not Private Clay Paxton.

Happy Friday! Today, I'm sharing the first line from Isaiah's Legacy by Mesu Andrews: "I am Shebna. Small in stature, weak in body, strong of mind. A Levite."

The new cover is cool, but I'm biased toward the original.

I'm sharing from The Vault Between Spaces by Chawna Schroeder on my blog today. Happy Friday and have a great weekend!

Officer Kaylin Poirer’s stomach lurched at the sight of the two people inside a white florist van that pulled up to her booth at the Windsor-Detroit border. The driver wouldn’t meet her gaze and his passenger couldn’t sit still.

Happy Weekend! My first line (actually 2 lines) is from "Draw Me to Your Side" by Marguerite Martin Gray:

"Closing her eyes for a brief respite, Elizabeth dozed in the afternoon sun peeking through the frosty windowpanes. The image of a coiled, ferocious rattlesnake fought its way behind eyelids seemingly glued together."
