Welcome to First Line Fridays! The day we grab the book closest to us and share the first line. Join the fun and discover your next read!
Happy Valentine’s Day! I’m so excited to finally be getting a chance to read this wonderful novel.
Here is the first line:
Across the San Diego Bay, the sun slipped behind the skyline of Shelter Island.
Alison Dockerty has a big heart for the homeless and a vivid imagination for writing sweet romantic fantasies on her blog The Love Dock. When she meets Navy Special Forces Instructor Nick Reid at a CrossFit competition, she can’t resist fabricating a story that will get his attention. But Nick’s been burned before and isn’t about to trust his heart to a woman who has no problem using and manipulating him, even to the point of contracting horseback riding lessons at his family’s ranch. Reluctantly drawn into Alison’s world when she takes a young homeless girl under her wing, Nick’s feelings are put to the test. And a decision Alison makes may drive them apart for good.
