First Line Friday #12- This Time Around

 Happy Friday! I hope you are having a great day and looking forward to a relaxing weekend! Welcome back to First Line Friday, hosted by Hoarding Books!! I will also be linking up with Gilion on Rose City Reader for Friday Beginnings. It’s time to grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line. This week I am sharing from This Time Around by Denise Hunter, Melissa Ferguson, and Kathleen Fuller.

Three weeks into dating, and already odds he'd marry this woman were approaching 45 percent.

This is the first line from the second novella, Pining for You, by Melissa Ferguson. I have just started this one.

About the Book (from Goodreads):

Pining for You by Melissa Ferguson invites you to a cozy Virginia mountain town where Christmas tree farm owner Theo Watkins III has the opportunity to drop everything for one weekend to play farmer and potentially win back the heart of his childhood best friend, Skye Fuller. Only problem? He’s the kind of man who drives a Tesla, not a tractor. 

Have you read this book? What did you think?

Your turn! Grab the book nearest you and post the first line in the comments!

  7. Been eyeing that one! Great authors!

    My first line is from To Write a Wrong by Jen Turano:
    March 1887. New York City
    There was not a shadow of doubt left in Miss Daphne Beekman’s mind that her days as a successful novelist were numbere
