First Line Friday: On a Summer Tide

Happy Friday Everyone :)


It's time once again for First Line Fridays hosted by the lovely Hoarding Books.


For today's post, I'm going to highlight an upcoming release by Suzanne Woods Fisher:

On a Summer Tide:




About The Book:


When her father buys an island off the coast of Maine with the hope of breathing new life into it, Camden Grayson thinks hes lost his mind. An unexpected event sends Cam to his rescue, and she discovers the island has its own way of living . . . and loving.


My Thoughts:

I'm enjoying this one so much. It's the perfect reading to be enjoying during the beautiful spring weather we've been receiving lately, and I adore how thoroughly detailed the author is about the island setting. I'm really looking to finishing this one hopefully next week, and then fully reviewing it on my blog shortly thereafter. It releases on April 30th.


First Line:

"Camden Grayson took the turn into her dad's driveway a little fast."

Have a great weekend everyone :) Happy Reading!

  1. Happy Friday!

    On my blog I am sharing the first couple of lines from Delicate Balance by Brooke St. James: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2019/04/04/first-line-friday-82/. It's a really sweet book I highly recommend. Currently, I am reading A Silken Thread by Kim Vogel Sawyer, so I will share the first line from chapter 7.

    "'Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.' Willie gave a little jolt. The preacher read on, but the second verse of Galatians 6 seemed to bounce off the wood-planked walls and echo in Willie's mind."

    Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading!

    1. I've heard so many great things about A Silken Thread! Galations 6:2 is one of my favorite Bible verses so I love that chapter seven opens with that. Thanks so much for sharing!

  2. Happy Friday! I'm sharing from Up from the Sea by Amanda Dykes on my blog today. This is the first line from my current read, In the Shadow of Croft Towers by Abigail Wilson:

    "I often wonder what my life would have been like if I had never learned the truth."

First Line Friday: Carolina Breeze

Happy Friday Everyone :) I hope you're all having a great week! Mine has actually been pretty good. We've had some really nice days, and my husband and I were finally able to put our garden in, and various flowers and the like. We've also had a couple of lovely, rainy days as well, and I love how green everything is looking in our yard right now. For today's post, I'm excited to once again be linking up with the lovely Hoarding Books  for another edition of First Line Friday. This fun weekly meme simply consists of sharing the first line of the book you're currently reading.

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books .  For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often. He's not interested in expanding his horizons or making new friends; it just hurts too much when you lose them. But as the summer progresses, George feels his defenses crumbling. The quest
