Happy Friday Everyone!
Before I get started, I want to give a shout out to Hoarding Books for creating this bookish meme we call First Line Fridays!
Today I’m sharing the first line(s) from the novel that’s next up on my tbr, Hate Notes by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward!
“I wouldn’t have been caught dead in here a year ago. Don’t take that the wrong way- I’m not a snob. Growing up, my mom and I spent hours combing the racks at the secondhand store. And that was back when secondhand was called Goodwill, and the stores were predominantly in blue-collar neighborhoods.”
Hate Notes
By: Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Publisher: Montlake Romance
Publication Date: November 6th, 2018
Blurb:
It all started with a mysterious blue note sewn into a wedding dress.
Something blue.
I’d gone to sell my own unworn bridal gown at a vintage clothing store. That’s when I found another bride’s “something old.”
Stitched into the lining of a fabulously feathered design was the loveliest message I’d ever read: Thank you for making all of my dreams come true.
The name embossed on the blue stationery: Reed Eastwood, obviously the most romantic man who ever lived. I also discovered he’s the most gorgeous. If only my true-love fantasies had stopped there. Because I’ve since found out something else about Mr. Starry-Eyed.
He’s arrogant, cynical, and demanding. I should know. Thanks to a twist of fate, he’s my new boss. But that’s not going to stop me from discovering the story behind his last love letter. A love letter that did not result in a happily ever after.
But that story is nothing compared to the one unfolding between us. It’s getting hotter, sweeter, and more surprising than anything I could have imagined.
Something new.
But I have no idea how this one is going to end…

I cannot wait to dive further into Hate Notes. I read the first chapter on the day it released and I’ve been intrigued ever since.
Have you had a chance to read Hate Notes yet?

I would love to see what you all are reading <3
Peace Love and Happy Reading,
Happy Friday!
My first lines come from Tin God by Stacy Green….
“That’s impossible.” Jaymee’s stomach lurched and then spiraled to her toes. The meager window air conditioner in the manager’s trailer did nothing for her constricted lungs. She shifted as the torn plastic of the junky folding chair cut into the back of her thigh. “My boyfriend–ex-boyfriend–paid the rent. I gave him the money last week.”
Have an awesome weekend and Happy Holidays!😊🎄💕
Ohhh… this sounds intriguing! I may have to look into it! Thank you for sharing. 😁 Happy holidays to you as well 🎄❤
On my blog, I am featuring Lady Jayne Disappears by Joanna Davidson Politano. Since it’s also my current read, I will share the first line from the 28th chapter: “I watched the moon from my window that night, knees tucked to my chest as I curled into the wingback chair.” I wish you a joy-filled Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well! Thank you for sharing! ❤
Love this first line and this book!
The first chapter was great. Hook line and sinker! Now I just need to find the time to read the rest….
Happy Friday!
This week I’m sharing from Castle on the Rise by Kristy Cambron (I have an ARC… doesn’t release until Feb 2019), but it’s also the book I’m currently reading so I’ll share the first line from my current chapter (18) here: “Maeve had just put down her quill to close the estate ledger when the alarm bell clanged outside.” Hope you have the chance to get some reading in this weekend and have a very Merry Christmas! 🙂
Loved this book!
<3 I'll be starting it tonight! I cannot wait. I've heard nothing but amazing things about this one!
