First Line Friday | Week #233 | To Bring You Back by Emily Conrad

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 To Bring You Back by Emily Conrad. Here’s the first line from the Chapter One:

At the sight of the food trailer's next customer, Adeline Green coughed on the bacon-scented air.

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

 

About To Bring You Back

He’s determined to confront the past she’s desperate to forget.

When Adeline Green’s now-famous high school crush descends on her quiet life, a public spotlight threatens to expose her deepest regret.

To bury her mistakes, Adeline follows all the rules, working meaningful jobs that don’t quite make ends meet, and avoids close friendships that would only end in rejection if the truth about her came out. The closer she gets to Gannon, who took center stage in her past, and the reporters that hound him, the more she risks the carefully curated life that’s finally brought her a measure of peace.

Gannon Vaughn and his rock band, Awestruck, have conquered the music industry, but he can’t overcome his feelings for Adeline.

She may have been right to cut off contact between them years ago, but thanks to the grace of God, he’s a changed man. When he hears Adeline’s struggling, he sets out to turn her life around and win back the love he lost to poor choices eight years ago.1

But when Gannon’s fame and their mutual regrets jeopardize their relationship anew, will grace be enough to bring them back to God and each other?
