A brilliant story! I loved the codebreaking element – those people were so clever.
I’ve got a combination first line and cover reveal over on my blog today, sharing the first line and the cover from A Girl’s Guide to the Outback by Jessica Kate. I’ve had the privilege of reading an early draft, and I’m looking forward to reading the final version!
In the meantime, I will console myself with reading Jessica Kate’s debut novel, Love and Other Mistakes, which releases next month. Here’s the first line:
“Natalie Groves eyed the bag of gingerbread M&M’s on the other side of the office meeting room and prayed for a divine intervention of Red Sea proportions.”

My first line is from The Reluctant Bride by Jody Hedlund:
London, England. May, 1862
“Hang on a little longer, my lamb,” Mercy Wilkins shifted the listless infant in her arms without slowing her pace.
The Number of Love is a fabulous story. I love the research Roseanna does on her books! Everything ties in so well!

Happy Friday! I know I’m late but today was a busy day. It was the last day of school!!!!
Anyways, today on my blog I am sharing the first paragraph from A Noble Guardian by Michelle Griep. It’s a FANTASTIC novel. You can see my post by following the link: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2019/06/06/first-line-friday-90/. I am just starting Murder at the Flamingo by Rachel McMillan, so I will post the first few lines from there.
“Heartbeat, Hamish. Assess your surroundings. Acknowledge the trigger point. Assure a corner for a quick retreat before the symptoms draw attention.”
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading!
