The Kiss Dare by Jessica Kate

“Your skirt’s tucked into your underwear.” Bea MacLaren jolted at the familiar male voice, spilling the water in her glass onto the worn carpet of the Walungurru Bowls Club.
my thoughts
Bea and Harry’s loathe/love relationship is all fuss and sparks and I adore their heated frienemies romance! This sassy short packs a storytelling punch with a kiss that most definitely deserves mention in the title. I have no doubt I’ll find opportunities to read this story over and over again and my enjoyment of this teeny story greatly increases my already high anticipation of the author’s future work!
I received an ebook copy of this title through the author’s newsletter. The opinions expressed are my own.
The author’s debut novel, Love and Other Mistakes, is in my high priority tbr and Jessica Kate’s next release is available for preorder! Go to Hoarding Books to find more FLF bloggers!

On my blog today, I am featuring a nonfiction, Leveling the Praying Field by Donna L. Barrett. Since it’s my current read, I will share the first line in Chapter 4 here: When circumstances turn out the way a person asked in prayer, they’ll often say, “Prayer works.” Think of prayer as a telephone, a communication device. What really matters is who is on the other end of the line.
I hope you will have a wonderful weekend!

Today on my blog I am sharing the first line from Finders Keepers by Sarah Monzon: https://christianfictiongirl.blog/2019/09/12/first-line-friday-101/. It’s such a good book. Currently, I am reading book 2 in the series, All of You, so I will share a line from there.
“England, 1944
The gangplank bounced under the weight of passengers disembarking the large transatlantic liner — a veritable Goliath to the small David-like tugboats dotting the harbor.”
Hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading!
