First Line Friday

First Line Friday | Week #234 | Big Apple Atonement by Carolyn Miller

It’s First Line Friday! That means it’s time to pick up the nearest book and quote the first line.

Today I’m sharing from Big Apple Atonement by Carolyn Miller, the fifth book in her Original Six contemporary romance series. Here’s the first line from the Chapter One:

He was, quite possibly, the ugliest man she had ever seen.

I don’t know about you, but I’m excited to read a romance novel where the heroine isn’t attracted to the hero!

What’s the book nearest you, and what’s the first line?

 

About Big Apple Atonement

She’s the saint with a secret. He’s the sinner with a heart of gold.

For Emma Moritello, giving abandoned and rejected children a safe home is her life’s purpose, but pressures at work means her dream may be coming to a close. And just when she thought life couldn’t get more challenging, along comes hockey’s bad boy, keen to make amends. God might want her to love her enemies, but it doesn’t mean she has to like them. Especially this hockey enforcer, who has the nerve to try to stir her heart.

TJ Woletsky has never tried to hide his sins—his exploits are tabloid fodder, and hockey teams love to hate him. Including his own. When a trade takes him to New York he’s confronted with the repercussions of his past, and time spent with the unfortunate helps ignite his desire to turn his life around. Until an incident in a nightclub makes everyone question whether this sinner can ever really change.

This story of second chances is the fifth book in the Original Six Christian hockey romance series, a sweet and swoony, slightly sporty, Christian contemporary romance series from bestselling author Carolyn Miller.
