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: 

  Mistaken for a Rake
by Rose Pearson


And the first line is...

"'Do hurry up, Rebecca!  The carriage has been waiting for some minutes and you are, again, tardy.'" 

Happy reading and happy Friday!

  1. My first line is from Kristi Hunter’s newest: Winning the Gentleman:
    After twenty-two years, Aaron Whitworth should have been aware of his closest friend’s idiocy.

    "Hattie was a mess with mud up to her elbows."
