Happy
"Book Hook" Day
Let's have some
"New Beginnings"
"New Beginnings"
is set in Australia, in the wonderful State
Tasmania.
I hope you get hooked by this Snippet
Blurb:
Twenty-two-year-old Sophie Levesque has been guardian to eight-year-old
sister Mia since their mother's death a few years ago. Luck comes their
way when they inherit a small house in Hobart. Problem is though, they
don't know or have never heard of Clara Bellinger, the testator, and
Sophie is afraid it's all been a mistake.
As Mia settles well into her new school and life in general, Sophie is not only occupied by her search of what connected her to Clara, but also her new studies and the two men, who suddenly have become part of her daily life - Mark O'Connor, the lawyer representing Clara's estate, and Zach, the hunk from across the road.

Today's hook :-)
Running his thumb over his eyebrow, he stepped
closer, but not so close as to be intimidating. “I’m sorry. It’s been one
extraordinary week,” he said with his voice just above a whisper. “Once I get
back I’ll check with the partners here to see whether anybody knows more about
it.”
One
extraordinary week? His remark irked her. In fact it was
downright annoying. Holding Mia even closer to her side, she lifted her finger
and pointed at him. “No offence, Mr. O’Connor, but it has been quite a week for
us as well, and I was prepared to answer all your questions. I have one simple
question, and you don’t know. Wouldn’t there be something in the file?” Sophie
was a kind person. Kindness was her middle name, but she wouldn’t have got that
far in life if she hadn’t watched some of those nasty actresses on television
and copied them. And the stare. Sophie met his surprised frown dead-on.

4 Stars:
An interesting introduction to these two sisters. Their relationship is
gorgeous, and they care for each other fiercely. Set in Southern Tasmania,
what a wonderful place to start a whole new life and find out just how your
life got to be the way it was and begin to heal. I enjoyed the story and
the setting very much.
4 Stars:
This was a very enjoyable read and it left me wanting just a little bit
more. I highly recommend it.
4 Stars:
Sophie and Mark are an irresistible match from the beginning. While getting
closer and connected to them individually as the story progressed, I
couldn't help but want them to be together. This author has a way of
endearing her characters and it is easy to fall in love with them. An
intriguing story with emotion, love and hope. A very enjoyable read! I
received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
