Happy Friday, book lovers, and welcome to First Line Friday hosted by Hoarding Books. This week I’m featuring Bethany Turner’s new release, which will be out on 5 May 2020. That’s only a little over a week away! Hadley Beckett’s Next Dish is the title you’ll be looking to pre-order, and I’m very much looking forward to diving in once I’ve finished my current reads (yes, that’s reads, plural).
About the Book
Celebrity chef Maxwell Cavanagh is known for many things: his multiple Michelin stars, his top-rated Culinary Channel show To the Max, and most of all his horrible temper. Hadley Beckett, host of the Culinary Channel’s other top-rated show, At Home with Hadley, is beloved for her Southern charm and for making her viewers feel like family.
When Max experiences a very public temper tantrum, he’s sent packing to get his life in order. When he returns, career in shambles, his only chance to get back on TV and in the public’s good graces is to work alongside Hadley.
As these polar-opposite celeb chefs begin to peel away the layers of public persona and reputation, they will not only discover the key ingredients for getting along, but also learn the secret recipe for unexpected forgiveness . . . and maybe even love. In the meantime, hide the knives.
Fan-favorite Bethany Turner serves up a heaping helping of humor and romance with this thoroughly modern story centered on cooking, enemies, and second chances.

This sounds like a great book, one that definitely appeals to me. Adding it to my TBR. I am reading a few right now, will have to figure out which one to highlight.
The cover is so cute! This sounds like a good read too, Happy Friday!
Love Bethany’s books. This one is on its way!
My first line is from chapter 6 of One Hundred Valleys by Bonnie Leon:
The Indians had kept moving, but Emmalin held on to the rifle.
I can’t wait to read this one! 🙂
Today on my blog I’m featuring The Traitor’s Pawn by Lisa Harris. Right now I’m reading Just the Way You Are by Pepper Basham, so I’ll share the first line here: “One step into the massive, glass-walled waiting area was all it took.”
Have a great weekend! Happy reading! 🙂
Happy Friday! My first line is from “Collateral Damage” by Lynette Eason:
“Sergeant First Class Asher James stared at Captain Phillip Newell, sure that he’d heard wrong.”
Happy Friday!
I’m really looking forward to reading this one!
On my blog this week, I’m sharing the first line from The Number of Love by Roseanna M. White:

Have a great weekend 🙂
Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing the first line from Smoke Screen by Terri Blackstock: “He left me for a size-two selfie star and didn’t want me to make a scene.”

Happy Friday!
On my blog I’m sharing from Being Known by Robin Jones Gunn. It’s such an EXCELLENT story. Currently, I’m reading Hadley Beckett’s Next Dish by Bethany Turner. I’m just getting into chapter 2 so I’ll share a line from there.
“Meemaw? Are you home?”
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading! 🙂
My first line comes from Becky Wade’s Stay With Me — Like Papa Bear in the Goldilocks story, Sam Turner had discovered a strange woman sleeping in the bed of a home he owned.
Have a wonderful weekend!
