First Line Fridays is a bookish meme created and hosted by Hoarding Books. The rules are simple, post the first line(s) of the novel you’re currently reading or in my case next up on your TBR. then head on over to Hoarding Books and link up. (also, if you’re a romance reader loving on those ab covers, be sure to write (mature) next to your linky if your post shows mature content.)
Today’s first lin is from my current paperback read:
Cowboy Bold
(Longhorn Canyon #1)
By: Carolyn Brown
‘Retta felt as if she was entering forbidden territory when she rapped on the door frame and glanced up at a carved wooden sign above the door that said BOYS.
With her sassy humor and sexy cowboys, USA Today bestseller Carolyn Brown launches her new Longhorn Canyon series.
One city girl, one die-hard rancher, and eight mischievous kids. What could go wrong?
Every summer Cade Maguire looks forward to opening his Longhorn Canyon Ranch to underprivileged city kids. But this year, he’s having no luck finding a counselor for the children-until Retta Palmer walks through his door.
Flat broke after selling everything she owns to pay her father’s medical bills, Retta is thrilled to hear of an opening for a counselor position. She’s not as thrilled about the ranching part, or the sexy cowboy with beautiful blue eyes who’s her new boss.
After being left at the altar two years before by his fiancée, Cade isn’t sure he can take another heartbreak. And Retta isn’t even sure she wants to stay. But the sparks between them are absolutely undeniable. And with a couple of lovable kids and two elderly folks playing matchmaker, Cade and Retta may find that the best way to heal is with each other.

Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing the first lines from Light From Distant Stars by Shawn Smucker: “Cohen Marah clears his throat quietly, more out of discomfort than the presence of any particular thing that needs clearing, and attempts to step over the body for a second time.”

What an intriguing first line!
This sounds fun!
I’m sharing the first line from Catherine West’s latest book over on my blog, As the Light Fades. I know we’re not supposed to judge books by the cover, but this has a great cover and I’m itching to get into it.
Happy reading 🙂
Catherine West has some beautiful covers! I hope you enjoy!
Happy Saturday!
Yesterday on my blog I shared the first couple of lines from A Daring Venture by Elizabeth Camden: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2019/08/08/first-line-friday/. Currently, I am reading The Yellow Lantern by Angie Dicken. I’ll share a line from there.
“A thick cloud of dust hovered on the top of the hill just outside the Bates estate.”
Hope you have a great weekend! 🙂💜📚
Thank you for sharing!
Happy Weekend! My first line is from “Choose Me” by Marion Ueckermann:
“Today of all days, Julia Delpont needed to forget about the world.”
I hope you had a great weekend! Thank you for sharing your first line!
An intriguing opening line! 🙂
I’m sharing on my blog the first line from Starting Anew by Melanie D. Snitker.
Lynn Crosby sat up in bed, unsure of what actually woke her up.
Hmmm… this line has me also wondering what woke her up.
Thank you for sharing!
