Happy Friday, book lovers, and welcome to First Line Friday hosted by Hoarding Books. This week I’m sharing the first line of a book I’ve been anticipating for aaaaages: Wooing Cadie McCaffrey by Bethany Turner. I absolutely loved her first novel, The Secret Life of Sarah Hollenbeck, and early readers have already been raving about “WooCam”, as it’s become affectionately known, so I can’t wait to finally pick it up and read it for myself!
About the Book
After four years with her boyfriend, Cadie McCaffrey is thinking of ending things. Convinced Will doesn’t love her in the “forever” way she loves him, Cadie believes it’s time for her to let him go before life passes her by. When a misunderstanding leads to a mistake, leaving her hurt, disappointed, and full of regret, she finally sends him packing.
But for Will, the end of their relationship is only the beginning of his quest to figure out how to be the man Cadie wanted him to be. With the dubious guidance of his former pro-athlete work friends and tactics drawn from Cadie’s favorite romantic comedies, Will attempts to win her back. It’s a foolproof plan. What could possibly go wrong?
Bethany Turner is back with more of the heart and humor readers love. Anyone who enjoys a good romance or binges romantic comedies on Netflix will devour this delightful story.

Happy Friday! My first line is from “When He Returns” by author Kimberly Rae Jordan, which I haven’t started, but hope to start reading soon:
Prologue
“Dalton Callaghan stared at the gleaming wood casket at the front of the chapel, the profile of his friend just barely visible over the edge as he lay there.”
I’m so very glad today is Friday! It has been a long week! Over on my blog, I’m sharing the first line from Michelle Griep’s new book, The Noble Guardian. Here I’ll share the first line of a book that is on my #TBR mountain.
“Tommy, wait!” Carly Blair screeched as she bounded off the depot platform after her brother.

Happy Friday!
Today on my blog I am sharing the first couple of lines from The Printed Letter Bookshop by Katherine Reay. It’s a fabulous story that I highly recommend. Currently, I am just starting Wooing Cadie McCaffrey by the fantastic Bethany Turner so I will share a line from that book.
“What a difference four years can make.”
I hope your weekend is a great one. Happy reading! 🤗💙📚
Oooh you’re in for a real treat! I LOVED it! On my blog today I shared the first line from Living Lies by Natalie Walters. Here I’ll hare the first line from The Heart of a King by Jill Eileen Smith which I just received in the mail yesterday 🙂 “The teacher looked at his scroll, light dancing in little ringlets over the words from the flickering candle at his side.” Hope you have a great weekend! Happy Reading!
I love the cover of this book…probably because it is pink! 🙂 Happy Friday Katie!
Happy reading Friday!
My first line is from The King’s Mercy by Lori Benton:
July 1747
Cape Fear River, Colony of North Carolina
Alex MacKinnon roused to the press of wood beneath his cheek and an ominous churning in his gut.
I’m looking forward to reading that book! Today I’m sharing the first lines from The Crossing at Cypress Creek by Pam Hillman:
“Caleb O’Shea jerked awake to utter stillness.”

Happy Friday! I’m sharing from The Cowboy Meets His Match by Margaret Brownley on my blog today. Here is the first line from Chapter 12 of my current read, Becoming Mrs. Lewis by Patti Callahan:
“The second day in Oxford arrived, luminescent, the honey-hues of sunlight falling from the leaves to settle on the grass like spilled paint.”
