Book Beginnings and Friday56
Book Beginnings is a weekly meme hosted by Rose City Reader that asks you to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you're reading. Friday 56 is hosted by My Head is Full of Books and asks you to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your e-reader and share a non-spoiler sentence or two. First Line Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Reading is my Superpower that asks you to share the first sentence of the book you're reading.
Just started this but the first chapter was captivating. Much needed sleep made me put the book down.
Before We Were Us
About the book:
She can't remember. He can't forget.
Seven months ago, after graduating with a hospitality degree, city girl Lauren Wentworth travelled to rural New Hampshire to become temporary manager of Pinehaven Lodges, a rustic family-owned resort. What started as just a springboard to her dream job became so much more when she fell in love with the owner's son Jonah, the Landry family, and her simple but rewarding position at the resort. Now she's reaching toward a different kind of future than she'd imagined for herself--and happier than she's ever been. But then she falls from a ladder.
When Lauren wakes up in the hospital, she only recalls her first couple months at the resort. She remembers her adversarial relationship with Jonah and her major crush on small-town doctor, Carson, who also has big-city ambitions--but is, unfortunately, taken. However, according to everyone around her, she's now madly love with Jonah and has forfeited the dream job awaiting her in Boston. It seems impossible to believe she could've made such drastic changes in a matter of months!
Jonah is heartbroken at her memory loss and determined to help Lauren remember the deep feelings they've developed for one another. But Lauren isn't sure she wants to remember falling in love with someone she doesn't even like or giving up her dream career for a rustic resort in Podunk, New Hampshire.
Especially when Dr. Carson is now available. . .

Happy Saturday!
ReplyDeleteLife has been insanely crazy, so I am sorry for my tardiness in replying to everyone's Friday posts. But I'm here now. LOL. I hope life has been less crazy for you.
Anyway, I'm just getting into Once Upon a Boyband by Jenny Proctor. So far, it's super good!

I hope you are having an excellent weekend full of rest and reading! 🙂❤️📚
I have heard good things about Denise Hunter's books. I hope Lauren follows her heart in the end. Have a great weekend!
