First Line Fridays is hosted by Hoarding Books and participants share the first line from a nearby book.
Today, I'm sharing the first lines from The Prince of Spies by Elizabeth Camden.
"Marianne ventured farther onto the frozen river despite the people warning her against it."
Have you read The Prince of Spies? 📖 It just released earlier this month. I'm planning to read it in a few months with my local book club!
What are you reading this weekend? I'd love for you to share your book's first line!
Happy reading!
About the Book:
Luke Delacroix has long had a reputation of being an impulsive adventurer, the wild son of one of Gilded Age Washington's most prominent families. In reality, he has been secretly carrying out an ambitious agenda in Congress. His current mission: to thwart the reelection of Congressman Clyde Magruder, his only real enemy in the world.
Trouble begins when Luke meets Marianne Magruder, the congressman's only daughter. Luke is fascinated by the vibrant Marianne and her daring work as a government photographer, leading them into a forbidden romance. Now they must embark on a dangerous gamble to reconcile their growing feelings with Luke's driving passion for vital reforms in Congress.
Can their newfound love survive a political firestorm, or will three generations of family rivalry drive them apart forever?
Loved that whole series by Elizabeth Camden
