Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice and Book Beginnings is hosted by Rose City Reader. The idea is to share a sentence or so from the first page and the 56th page of the book you are currently reading! Also, I will now also include a brief synopsis.
The Synopsis: The USA Today bestselling author of the Hero’s Welcome series introduces a trio of swoon-worthy North Carolina brothers fighting for love in this novel of sand, sea, and seduction.
For years, Jack Sawyer’s family has been running their upscale seafood business like a finely tuned machine. But every machine breaks down eventually, and suddenly Jack needs a new office manager, a new kayak launch, and a new lease on life. Then Grace Donner shows up again. She’s smart, motivated, and perfect for the manager position, but if she’s anything like her mom, she can’t be trusted. And Jack has never been able to trust himself around Grace.
Grace hasn’t seen her former stepbrothers since their parents’ messy divorce, but she never forgot them—especially Jack. She misses being part of the big rambunctious Sawyer clan, and if there’s an opportunity to set things right, she means to do it. But she can’t ignore Jack’s irresistibly kissable lips, or the searing way he looks at her when he thinks she’s not looking. Their chemistry is more explosive than ever. And if the Sawyers can forgive and forget, anything is possible.
Beginning of the Book
Grace Donner felt strangely out of place as she walked into the Blushing Bay Café with her decade-old laptop and ordered a coffee and blueberry muffin.

"Oh," Grace wondered if it had anything to do with the woman she'd seen Noah with the other night.
Since I am participating in the author's blog tour for her new series (I'm scheduled for April 20th) I'll be posting a review, excerpt, etc., so check back at my blog next Thursday.
What do you think? I loved the author's first series and couldn't wait when I heard she had a new series coming out. Hope to see you at the blog tour on my blog on the 20th. What are you reading?

Not my usual genre, but thanks for sharing! Happy reading. :)
ReplyDeleteOh well, we all like different books. I don't care for sci fi and dystopian. But us all liking different things, makes life more interesting!
DeleteAfter the opening sentence, I'd keep reading to find out why Grace felt out of place. This sounds like a book I'd enjoy.
ReplyDeleteMy Friday post features Still Alice.
I'm on the fence about it, but I'll be back to check out your full review!
ReplyDeleteSee you on Thursday. Still reading it, but hopefully by Tuesday I'll finish. See you on Thursday!
DeleteLooking forward to reading your review. Here is my post

I always enjoy books that take me to places I haven't been...like the South.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, and here's mine: “THE WIDOWER’S WIFE”
L've never been to North Carolina; unless you count other books I read that took place in North Carolina.
DeleteSounds like the makings of a great read! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI haven't come across this author yet but I love the sound of it! Not sure about the step-brother thing even if it is an ex but this is a book I'd like to try. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean; it just feels a little weird to me also!
