A Dangerous Legacy
Empire State #1
by Elizabeth Camden
About the Book
New York City, 1903
The amount of female attention her brother garnered never failed to amaze Lucy.
I know that I am a super latecomer to this series, but after reading and LOVING The Spice King I feel like binge-reading more by Elizabeth Camden. Definitely check back later for my review of this book.
Happy reading!!!
NOW IT IS YOUR TURN!
GRAB THE BOOK YOU ARE CURRENTLY READING, OPEN TO CHAPTER ONE, AND POST THE FIRST SENTENCE (OR SECOND SENTENCE) IN THE COMMENTS BELOW.

It is always fun to visit other blogs and see which books people choose to feature for FLF! This week I’m sharing the first line (and a few bonus lines…I just couldn’t help myself) from The Yellow Lantern by Angie Dicken.
Here I’ll share the first line from Chapter 8 of the same book.
“Nearly all the apple trees along the main drive had bloomed, their pale petals washed by moonlight against the dark sky.”

Happy Friday! On my blog, I’m sharing Lord of Her Heart by Sherrinda Kerchersid, which I absolutely loved. Here I will share the first line from chapter 8 in my current read, A Promised Land by Kimberly Grist. “Meriwether’s mouth watered as she pulled the iron skillet from the woodburning stove.” Have a wonderful weekend!

“Brett Jarvis grimaced, yawned, and snatched up his ringing cell phone. Two a.m. phone calls rarely meant good news, especially in his business.”
