First Line Friday
The Matchmaker Bride Collection
It’s FRIDAY which means I get to share a great line once a week with your from a book I am reading. I found this to be an exciting and entertaining way to find new authors, books and bloggers. So I am opening up the book I have been reading this week, and going to the first chapter and finding the first line…
This week is a bit different, I have a new romance collection that I am swooning about, and just have to share each first line.

My first line is: “Preston Tyler lowered his feet from the deck railing & leaned forward as his gaze followed the Jeep pulling up next to the Fontaines’ cabin across the lake.” From Presumed Dead by Angela Ruth Strong
Hi Bree!
I’m a sucker for the collections too! I hope you have a great reading weekend!
I’ve never read these types of collections yet. I notice Kim Vogel Sawyer as an author in this one. 😉 I featured a quote by her on my blog today. 🙂
I like collections too – I have found a few ‘cozy mysteries’ this way. BookBub is always good for that! Happy Friday 🙂
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! I find them to be just the right amount of mystery and charm!

I’m reading this for my local book club.
Thanks for joining this week Janet!
I’m not much of a collection reader, but I did love Barbour’s Message in a Bottle Romance Collection just released. Happy reading!
I love novella collections! It gives me a chance to read new stories from authors I love and to also learn about new writers as well.
Those collections are a delightful addiction 😉
