Happy Friday!

Today over at my blog, I am sharing the first line from the novel An Improper Proposal by Davalynn Spencer. Here, I will share the first line from Janet Ferguson's novel Leaving Oxford.

"Baby steps. Sarah Beth LeClair forced one foot in front of the other and willed herself to soak in the new life bursting around her on the University of Mississippi campus."

Happy Friday! On my blog today, I'm sharing the first line from Jody Hedlund's book, Love Unexpected. Here, I will share the first line from the second chapter of the book I'm currently reading, Mail-Order Revenge by Angela K. Couch. "The town of Bumble Bee appeared to consist of the sign bearing its peculiar name and a cluster of rustic buildings." Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

Happy Friday!
The book I'm sharing on my blog is The Butterfly and the Violin, but I'll share here what I'm currently reading- All Things New by Lynn Austin: "Josephine Weatherly thought she'd already lived through the darkest hour of this endless war, but she had been wrong." Hope you have a great weekend!

I'm sharing from Where the Fire Falls on my blog today but I'm currently reading The Backcountry Brides Collection, so here is the first line from the first novella, Shenandoah Hearts by Carrie Fancett Pagels:

Prologue
Philadelphia 1753
"Ladysmith, you have a gentleman caller--maybe two." The voice of her employer, Jacob Owens, held a slight tease.

Happy Friday!
