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 Small Town Faith by Michelle Stimpson & Michelle Lindo-Rice, a finalist in the Romance with Religious or Spiritual Elements section of the inaugural Vivian Awards from Romance Writers of America (the replacement for the RITAs).

Here’s the first line from the Chapter One:

What’s the book nearest you, and what’s the first line?

About Small Town Faith

An inadequate vigilante. A daring detective. The dangerous man between them.

Jazmin “Jazzy” Thompson will stop at nothing to avenge her brother’s death, even if it means using herself as bait. Ignoring her twin sister’s warnings, Jazzy goes undercover by befriending her brother’s killer. But will love thwart her mission?

Detective Travis “the Tease” Gonzalez, has been pursuing Jazzy since their teens but his reputation as a flirt supersedes him. When they are united on a case, will Travis finally get his chance to prove that what he feels for her is the real deal?
