First Line Friday

First Line Friday | Week 114 | Christmas in Winter Hill by Melody Carlson

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 Christmas in Winter Hill by Melody Carlson. Here’s the first line of Chapter One:

Krista Galloway didn't usually second-guess herself, but as she slowed down the U-Haul truck on the outskirts of Winter Hill, she was assaulted with some serious doubts.

(Does that graphic look blurry to you? I create my graphics in Canva, and they’ve “upgraded” me to Canva 2.0. I’m not sold. Or do I need new glasses for Christmas?)

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

About Christmas in Winter Hill:

Krista Galloway is not a fan of Christmas. After her rough childhood in multiple foster homes, the holiday season just brings too many bad memories to the surface. But when she accepts a job as a city manager in the mountain town of Winter Hill, Washington, Christmas is part of the deal. The small town is famous for its Christmasville celebration, something that the city manager . . . well, manages.

As she tries to make her tiny new apartment feel like home for her and her eight-year-old daughter, Emily, Krista begins to wonder if this move was a mistake. She doesn’t always feel welcomed in the close-knit town, and Emily continually wonders, “Where’s the snow?” Can a friendly stranger and his family help restore Krista’s Christmas spirit before the big day?
