Happy Friday friends!! I am very excited to share not one, not two, but FOUR first lines with you today! WHAT!? Go big or go home right? I’ve been away from First Line Fridays for a long time. There’s been some personal things going on that have prevented me from doing extras on the blog. Those things are now behind me (YAY!) and I can return to a normal schedule.
Back to today’s post. Thank you Hoarding Books for hosting this weekly post. I love seeing what everyone is reading! Yesterday was Valentine’s Day, and it just so happens it was the release day for a group of novellas that are amazing. These four authors certainly know how to write romance stories, and when they are inspired by some of my favorite fairy tales, well I knew it was going to be a slam dunk. Oh my word, I cannot read these fast enough. Ladies, get your fans ready because you are going to need them! Wowza!! I’ll just leave it at that š
Between Stairs and Stardust:
Sunset and sunrise captured the magnificent country chateau best.
Entanglements:
Once upon a time, Father Francisco told Nic Ricci that to find math in music he merely had to look to Mozart.
Twice Upon A Time:
Under no circumstances would she fall for him again.
Once Bitten:
If wishes were apples, she could have baked two tarts by now.
Now itās your turn to share your first line! Grab the book nearest to you and share the first line in the comments. Donāt forget to check out what everyone else is reading at Hoarding Books!
My first line is from A Desperate Hope by Elizabeth Camden
Summer 1896
Alex Duvalās first hint of trouble was when Eloise failed to appear at their hideaway.
Iām sharing a new release on Faithfully Bookish but hereās the first line from chapter 2 of my current read, Once Bitten by Betsy St. Amant of the Finding Ever After novella collection: āHe was going to stand her up.ā
Happy Friday!
Today on my blog, I am sharing the first line from Brunch at Bittersweet Cafe by Carla Laureano. I am loving this book so much. Iām currently just starting chapter 19, so I will share the first line from that chapter here.
āāA bookstore?ā Justin didnāt mean for his dismay to show in his voice when he pulled up in front of the address Melody had given him, but it escaped all the same.ā
Hope you have a really excellent weekend filled with relaxing reading time. ???
Val Deniston waved good night to her last customer, relieved that theyād ignored the elephant in the Cool Down CafĆ©. No one had rehashed Moniqueās rant about her husbandās affair with Nadia.

Happy Weekend! My first line is from “If Only It Were Yesterday” by A. M. Heath:
