Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader. The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
This week I am spotlighting Beneath a Patchwork Moon by Alison Kent. I received this book for review from Amazon. Here is the description of this March 4 release:
In Hope Springs, Texas, every first love deserves a second chance.Beginning:
Luna Meadows wove a successful career out of creating the sumptuous, richly hued scarves that adorn Hollywood’s elite. Now she wants to give back to her hometown of Hope Springs, Texas, by creating a community arts center on the property that once belonged to her best friend: a talented musician named Sierra who perished in a car crash at age eighteen. As Luna sorts through the personal belongings left in the Caffey family’s former home, she confronts her own guilt and memories. But when Angelo Caffey—Sierra’s brother and Luna’s first love—returns unexpectedly, Luna must also face the pain of their long-ago relationship.
Headstrong, handsome Angelo walked away from Hope Springs—and Luna—eight years ago. But this time, he’s staying until he gets his answers. Still haunted by Sierra’s mysterious accident, he demands to know the secrets Luna has harbored all these years. But will revealing the truth leave Luna heartbroken? Or can she finally bury the past and help Angelo come home for good?

I saw this one but did not get it. It does sound like something I would like. Here is my post: Mixed Book Bag
ReplyDeleteI love books that are set in my home state of Texas, and I'm sure this one would be no exception. It sounds like a good story.

I like the cover, very inviting! The snippets were good too. Sounds like it's got a hint of suspense by that beginning.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
Startling beginning! Thanks for sharing it with BBOF!
