The Water Keeper (Murphy Shepherd Book 1) by Charles Martin is this week’s Reader Friday. Here’s the opening: “Three miles distant, the trail of smoke spiraled upward. Thick and black it poured from the twin supercharged diesels housed in the engine room. Orange and red flames licked the smoke against a fading blue skyline, telling me the fire was hot and …
More Funny Lawyer Gaffes #11 ~ Mystery Question
More Funny Lawyer Gaffes #11 is this week’s Mystery Question. And from what I can tell, there are many more to come. 🙂 But first, the photo and verse.

Written in Secret ~ Reader Friday
Written in Secret (The Art of Love and Danger) by Crystal Caudill is this week’s Reader Friday post.

What had she been thinking …
The Other Sister ~ Reader Friday
The Other Sister by Jessica R. Patch is this week’s Reader Friday. This week I’m doing something a little different in that I’m giving you the last three sentences of the first chapter: “I fear this will be my last entry. But I fear every entry might be my last. She’s tried to kill me before.” And now I’ll leave …
Funny Lawyer Gaffes ~ Mystery Question
Funny Lawyer Gaffes is this week’s Mystery Question because I thought with this terrible time change, we could all use a laugh or two. But first the photo and verse.

One Wrong Move ~ Reader Friday
One Wrong Move by Dani Pettrey is this week’s Reader Friday. Here’s the first line: “He inhaled the stiff resolution of her death. She’d seen Cyrus. Remembered him.” But first the photo and verse.

Serial Burn by Lynette Eason is this week’s Reader Friday. Here are the first two lines: “Someone had to stop her.
