I'm usually a big Jen Turano fan, but this one somehow didn't grab my attention. What's it like?

Today I'm sharing from Entanglements by Rachel McMillan on my blog, one of the novellas in Finding Ever After. Here's the first line from the next story in the collection, Twice Upon a Time by Ashley Clark:

"Under no circumstances would she fall for him again."

I really enjoyed hearing Jen Turano speak at CFRR. I need to read more of her books. Thanks for sharing.

I gave this book away for a giveaway on The Engrafted Word, but I still need to read it myself. :) Happy Friday Sydney!

That was my first Jen Turano book and I loved it! Can't wait to read more!

Today on my blog I shared the first line from The Express Bride by Kimberley Woodhouse but I'm just getting into Yours Truly, Thomas by Rachel Fordham so I'll share the first line from that book here: "After letting an involuntary squeal escape, Penny pulled the yellow papers closer and pressed her lips to them." Hope you have a wonderful weekend with plenty of reading time!

Happy Friday!

I'm currently reading The Golden Bride by Kimberly Woodhouse. I'm just beginning chapter 3, so I will share the first line from there.

"Buttercup and Julius plodded along ever so slowly as if the past days' circumstances were thick mud around their hooves, weighing them down."

Hope you have an excellent weekend! 😀❤📚

My first line is from The Golden Bride by Kimberley Woodhouse:

No matter how much he thought he deserved to be one, Olivia Brighton’s husband of six weeks was not a king.

Flights of Fancy was so cute!

I have that book sitting on my TBR stack! Today I'm sharing the first lines from The Noble Guardian by Michelle Griep: "Was it wicked to say goodbye with a smile?" Happy Friday!

Great book! Happy Friday and Happy Weekend! My first line is from "Until Then (Women of the Heartland Book 5)" by Gail Kittleson:

"Sent Jerry packin', didn't we?"
