First Line Fridays


Grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line!

Today I am going to post a line from: 

  Secrets of My Heart
by Tracie Peterson


And the first line is...

Portland, Oregon
March 1879

"'Oh, my poor dear Mrs. Pritchard,' the older woman declared as soon as Nancy opened the front door." 

 
Happy reading and happy Friday!

  1. Hello! 🙂
    Today on my blog I'm sharing the first line from If I Were You by Lynn Austin. I'm currently on chapter 11, so I'll share from there.
    "USA 1950
    Eve barely slept."
    Hope you have a great weekend filled with awesome reading time. 🙂❤📚

  3. I’m sharing the first line from Stay With Me by Becky Wade on my blog today. “Like Papa Bear in the Goldilocks story, Sam Turner had discovered a strange woman sleeping in the bed of a house he owned.” Happy weekend!

  4. Happy Friday! My first line is from "Doesn't She Look Natural?" by Angela Hunt:

    "A grieving woman, I've decided, is like a creme brulee: she begins in a liquid state, endures a period of searing heat, and eventually develops a scablike crust."
