Book Beginnings & Friday 56 - #29

Book Beginnings on Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Rose City Reader. Every Friday we share the first sentence (or so) of the book we’re currently reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires.

My Book Beginning:  

Remember Me (Barlow-Barretts, Book3) by Laura Browning

I didn’t dump the proposal on your desk and take off.  Jesus. Dad.”

Brandon Barlow-Barrett grumbled into his Droid as he waited to check in his luggage.

My Thoughts:  Clearly Brandon and his father are at odds over something to do with the family business.

My 56 (Also from Remember Me)

     “She wasn’t ready for this, and all the reasons why she shouldn’t be a part of his life flooded through her in a terrible rush.  Lucy spun away, found the staircase and fled.

My Thoughts:  I'm not sure why Lucy doesn't think she should be a part of his life - I haven't read that far, but whatever the reason, she should stick around and fight for him if she really loves him.

About Remember Me (Barlow-Barretts, Book3) by Laura Browning

The plane went down…and took their love with it.

All Brandon Barlow-Barrett wants is a week away from his family’s newspaper empire, time on the slopes to relax and refocus. What he gets is Lucy Cameron, the most extraordinary woman he’s ever met.

Lucy Cameron doesn’t take vacations. Not until now. Her very first vacation is full of highs–falling in love with Brandon Barrett–and lows–realizing she has to tell him she earns her living as a stripper.

But there’s no time to reveal her secret. On the way back from a day trip to a neighboring Colorado town, their plane’s engine sputters and stops. All they have left is the dangerous peaks of the mountains, a nearby lake for a crash-landing, and Brandon’s last-minute declaration of love.

CONTENT WARNING: This is not an easy road to Happily Ever After. Some readers may be disturbed by the detailed description of the plane crash. Also, explicit language.
