It’s First Line Friday! That means it’s time to pick up the nearest book and quote the first line. Today I’m sharing from Better Than First by Kari Trumbo, which promised to be a fun friends-to-more Christian romance … and I think it features a disabled heroine. I’m looking forward to it.
Here’s the first line from the Chapter One:

About Better Than First
Isla won’t let anything hold her back, except telling her best friend she’s in love with him.
When Isla Florez’s coach and best friend challenges her to make a bucket list, she’s worried her dreams of a gold medal will slip away. If she agrees, won’t she miss time at the track?
The more she allows Duncan to show her, the more value she sees in everyday life…and love.
Duncan Schmitz went from homelessness to his dream job as a youth pastor, but it isn’t enough.
He’s loved Isla from afar for ten years. As a challenge, he takes it upon himself to remind her what life is like off the track. And maybe also remind her he’s not just her coach, but the friend who’s always been there for her.
