I have this on pre-order and I'm looking forward to

I've got the first line from The Saturday Night Supper club up on my blog, and I'm currently reading another great contemporary romance - Paper Hearts by Courtney Walsh. She's one of my new favourite authors. Here's the first line:

"I can't believe she did this to me again." Abigail Pressman stared at the computer screen in disbelief. it :)

This was a good one. So many feels in it!

Four years to the day after the alien planet arrived above Earth, Sofi's papa had collapsed on the rickety front porch of their buttermilk-yellow farmhouse. --Reclaiming Shilo Snow by Mary Weber

Aw, this one looks cute! Adding it to my TBR! Thanks for sharing!

I’m featuring “The Saturday Night Supper Club” by Carla Laureano on the blog today, but my first line here will be the book I’m currently reading, “Across the Blue” by Carrie Turansky.

February 1909
Isabella Grayson’s shoes sank into the plush red carpet of Broadlands’ south hall, and she released a soft sigh. What luxury!

Happy reading and have a wonderful weekend!

I’m going to share the first line from Part 1 Chapter 1 of Jocelyn Green’s “A Refuge Assured”
She should be used to this by now, the way skin exposed to cold eventually lost feeling.

I loved this one. I didn't realize what I was getting into when I started it and almost hit pause on the audiobook and stuck it out and really enjoyed it. My current read is not CF, so no First Line this week. However, I did just realize a new Kimberly Rae Jordan book came out, so I'll be starting that ASAP.

Over on my blog, I am featuring Heather B. Moore's novel, Worth the Risk. I am very excited to read that book. It sounds like it will be a lot of fun.

Here, I will post from the novel I am currently reading, A Refuge Assured by Jocelyn Green. It is an AMAZING story that I am enjoying wholeheartedly. I am just starting chapter 29, so I will share the first two lines from this chapter.

Asylum, Pennsylvania
July 1795

Still damp with morning's dew, the cool earth soiled Vivienne's apron as she knelt in her garden, tugging weeds from between iris and yarrow. Geese soared overhead, soft brown chevrons against a sky of robin's-egg blue.

Happy Friday! My first line is from Forward to What Lies Ahead by Chloe S. Flanagan:

"Regina's cellphone buzzed sharply, shattering the silence of her apartment and making her coffee table vibrate."

Sounds like a girl after my kids' hearts. No reusing wrapping paper at our place!

I'm featuring Jennifer Rodewald's Valentine's Day novella on my blog, but at the moment I'm refreshing my memory on Mary Weber's The Evaporation of Sofi Snow:

"The ice-planet arrived in the dusky heat of summer twilight during Earth's Fourth World War."

Have a great weekend.
