First Line Friday #270 | The Hearts of New Cheltenham by Chautona Havig

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 The Hearts of New Cheltenham by Chautona Havig, part of the Destination Christmas novella collection.

Here’s the first line from the Chapter One:

Procrastination would get her stuck with a life sentence - married to her best friend.

 

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

 

About The Hearts of New Cheltenham

♥ The only way not to break her best friend’s heart is to get someone else to steal it. ♥

It wasn’t a marriage pact exactly, but Crystal and Jarod had agreed to discuss the idea if neither of them had found anyone during the ten years post-college graduation. Just a conversation—no pressure or obligation.

But as the discussion date looms, Crystal knows she wants more from life than a nice existence with a best friend she isn’t in love with. Begin “Operation Find Jarod a Girl.” Phase one—well, she owes his boss thanks for that. A month off work should just about do it…if she can get him to agree to a month in New Cheltenham.

Jarod doesn’t see the point, but he’s willing to make the trip if it keeps him away from his family’s drama this Christmas. He didn’t expect to find someone like Ellie there, and he definitely didn’t expect to fall for her.

But with Ellie and Jarod hitting it off so well and Jarod becoming exactly what she’d been looking for, Crystal wonders if she’s made a colossal mistake.

A novella of love and friendship that defies a love triangle to interfere.
