First Line Friday

First Line Friday #366 | Me and Mr. Just Right by Kaylee Baldwin

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 Me and Mr Just Right by Kaylee Baldwin, which looks to be a fun rom-com with a Goldilocks vibe. (And I just realised this book opens on an airplane, just like last week’s book!)

Here’s the first line from the Chapter One:

Lia gripped her seat's flimsy armrests as the puddle jumper jerked through heavy turbulence.

About Me and Mr Just Right

Lia gripped her seat's flimsy armrests as the puddle jumper jerked through heavy turbulence.A famous singer fleeing the spotlight. A nature photographer with a secret. One week stranded together on an island…

What’s a country superstar to do when her ex betrays her, steals all her songs, and makes up lies for the media to salivate over?
Escape to a deserted Alaskan island.

Key word: deserted.

Turns out the island isn’t as deserted as Aurelia Halifax has been led to believe, and she’s surprised by the arrival of Haydn Forrester—who is less than happy to discover her asleep in his bed. And when an unexpected summer storm hits, they’re stranded together until it passes.

Worse, Haydn, is a photographer—exactly the kind of person she’s trying to avoid. He doesn’t recognize her, so it’s easy to pretend she’s Lia Hall, a make-up free, sweats-wearing, down-on-her-luck girl from the south. Unfortunately Haydn is proving to be irresistible, but she can’t let herself fall again. Trusting doesn’t come easy for Lia, especially when she learns that Haydn may be behind her biggest betrayal of all.

First Line Friday

First Line Friday Week #257 | Sunrise (Sky King Ranch #1) by Susan May Warren

It’s First Line Friday! That means it’s time to pick up the nearest book and quote the first line. I’m sharing from Sunrise, the first book in Susan May Warren’s Sky King Ranch series. And yes, I should have read Sunrise (#1) before Sunburst (#2), but it’s too late now …

Here’s the first line from the Chapter One:

By the time Dodge got to the hospital, he'd already broken his first promise.

About Sunrise

Coming home was never the plan

Pilot Dodge Kingston has always been the heir to Sky King Ranch. But after a terrible family fight, he left to become a pararescue jumper. A decade later, he’s headed home to the destiny that awaits him.

That’s not all that’s waiting for Dodge. His childhood best friend and former flame, Echo Yazzie, is a true Alaskan–a homesteader, dogsledder, and research guide for the DNR. Most of all, she’s living a life Dodge knows could get her killed. One of these days she’s going to get lost in the woods again, and his worst fear is that he won’t be there to find her.

When one of Echo’s fellow researchers goes missing, Echo sets out to find her, despite a blizzard, a rogue grizzly haunting the woods, and the biting cold. Plus, there’s more than just the regular dangers of the Alaskan forests stalking her . . .

Will Dodge be able to find her in time? And if he does, is there still room for him in her heart?
