First Line Friday #2
Thanks so much for joining me for First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books.
This week, I’m featuring the first line from my last read – A Tailor-Made Bride by Karen Witemeyer.
“Red? Have you no shame, Auntie Vic? You can’t be buried in a scarlet gown.”
Book Description
Jericho “J.T.” Tucker wants nothing to do with Coventry, Texas’s new dressmaker. He’s all too familiar with her kind–shallow women more devoted to fashion than true beauty. Yet, except for her well-tailored clothing, this seamstress is not at all what he expected.
Hannah Richards is confounded by the man who runs the livery. The unsmiling fellow riles her with his arrogant assumptions and gruff manner while at the same time stirring her heart with unexpected acts of kindness. Which side of Jericho Tucker reflects the real man?
When Hannah decides to help Jericho’s sister catch a beau–leading to uproarious consequences for the whole town–will Jericho and Hannah find a way to bridge the gap between them?
Now it’s your turn!

Happy Friday! My first line is from “When I’m with You” by Kimberly Rae Jordan:
“Michael Reed’s text alert chirped, disturbing the light sleep he’d been drifting in and out of since his alarm had gone off earlier.”

On my blog today, I’m featuring More Than Meets the Eye by Karen Witemeyer. I’m currently reading The Case for Miracles by Lee Strobel. I’m about to begin Chapter 11, so I’ll share the first line from this chapter. “Even for a decorated cold-case homicide investigator, this was a formidable challenge.”

My first line is from HER SECRET SONG by Mary Connealy:
“March 1874. Hope Mountain
Near Bucksnort, Colorado near Grizzly Peak, Colorado
Wax Mosley was living a life that was going to kill him.”

Happy Friday! 😀
On my blog, I’m sharing from Forgiven Again by Gina Holder. I’m currently reading The Gentleman and the Thief by Sarah M. Even, so I’ll share the first line from there.
“Hollis Darby learned two things at the knee of his not-so-dear, long-departed, low-life, scoundrel of a father: how to gamble beyond what was advisable and how to be an utter disappointment to his family.”
I hope you have a great weekend! 🙂❤📚
