Book Beginning: A Creed in Stone Creek by Linda Lael Miller

If you like, share with everyone why you do, or do not, like the sentence.


My book this week is A Creed in Stone Creek by Linda Lael Miller. I am reading the eARC that I got from Harlequin via NetGalley. I used to read Linda Lael Miller books all the time but it has been at least a couple of years since I have read anything by her. I actually have 58 of them in my personal collection. This seemed like a good time to see if she still has her magic for me.
Some instinct--or maybe just a stir of a breeze--awakened Steven Creed; he sat up in bed, took a fraction of a moment to orient himself to unfamiliar surroundings. One by one the mental tumblers clicked into place.
This is a nice start. It is descriptive. I'm curious to know what woke him. If you are curious too, the book will be published on Feb. 22.

  2. I've been very curious about this author, but haven't read anything she's written...yet. This one does have a promising opener, and I like the image of his "mental tumblers" at work.
