Todayโs first line Friday is coming from the novel next up on my tbr:
A Lie For A Lie
(All In Series, #1)
By: Helena Hunting
“What are the chances there will be booze at a birthday party for a pair of three-year-olds?”
“Uhhh…slim to none?”
From theย New York Timesย bestselling author of the Pucked series comes a romantic comedy about instant attraction, second chances, and not-so-little white lies.
Sometimes I need an escape from the demands, the puck bunnies, and the notoriety that come with being an NHL team captain. I just want to be a normal guy for a few weeks. So when I leave Chicago for some peace and quiet, the last thing I expect is for a gorgeous woman to literally fall into my lap on a flight to Alaska. Even better, she has absolutely no idea who I am.
Lainey is the perfect escape from my life. My plan for seclusion becomes a month long sex fest punctuated with domestic bliss. But it ends just as abruptly as it began. When Iโm called away on a family emergency, I realize too late that I have no way to contact Lainey.
A year later, a chance encounter throws Lainey and me together again. But I still have a lie hanging over my head, and Laineyโs keeping secrets of her own. With more than lust at stake, the truth may be our game changer.

That’s hilarious! Happy Friday!!
Happy Friday to you as well!
Happy Friday! My first line is from “The Color of Love” by Kimberly Rae Jordan:
“Charles Beaumont Allerton Junior tugged at the hem of his button-up shirt, hoping to work out some of the wrinkles that his rapid – and poor – packing job had created.”
Happy Friday!
Today I’m sharing from chapter 27 in The Happy Camper by Melody Carlson.
“Still needing to get groceries for tonight’s dinner with Jordan, Dillon was tempted to skip the Silver Slipper altogether.”
Hope you have a great Easter weekend. ๐โค๐
My book this week is THE HOUSE AT THE END OF THE MOOR by Michelle Griep.
March 1861 Dartmoor Prison, Devon, England
Death prowled the cell block like a dark animal seeking preyโ especially the weakest.
ohhh! This opening line is filled with so much suspense!
Happy Saturday! Today, I’m sharing the first line from Before I Called You Mine by Nicole Deese: “If Obsessive Email Checking Disorder were a disease, I was likely already in the final stages: trigger thumb, mindless refreshing, aimless scrolling, and of course, an inability to focus on anything else in the entire world.”
