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 :-)
“Thank you, Mr. O’Connor,” she replied as she blew out a breath. “What about our stuff?” Mia whispered to Sophie. Sophie moved her head to look down at her sister, but before she had a chance to say anything, he beat her to it. “What stuff?” he asked as he opened the door.
“Considering what we inherited here, we brought all our things,” Sophie explained without looking at him. The attorney stopped in his tracks. “All, as in all your clothes?”
He frowned and seemed taken aback by her words. “No
offence taken.” And then he let out a deep breath. “You’re right. I apologise.
As I said, I’ll find out details and let you know.”

Sophie’s eyes
met his. She emitted a small sigh, but tried to keep her composure. It was
something she had learnt over the last few years. Standing straight, she
corrected him. “All, as in all our belongings.”

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.

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.
Enjoyed the snippet! Sounds like a possible love triangle from the blurb. Those can be intense!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Kate. Appreciate it.
DeleteI like the way the blurb tugs at the heartstrings and then ends up with a hunk across the street. Yep, hooked. http://flossiebentonrogers.com/blog/
