A Lady Like Sarah by Margaret Brownley
"Vultures signaled trouble ahead. "Whoa boy." Reverend Justin Wells tugged on the reins of his horse, bringing his brown gelding to a standstill."
My Thoughts
Not the most amazing start but a good one nonetheless!

Susan May Warren is a great author!
I'm stopping in via Coffee Addicted's Blog Hop. I also like that first sentence idea, though! I just started the Newbery Honor book Breaking Stalin's Nose, and it begins: "My Dad is a hero and a Communist and, more than anything, I want to be like him." The rest of the book reveals how the protagonist becomes disillusioned with the Party as discoveries are made.
Hope you'll swing by one of my blogs and follow!

It's an okay beginning - at least it tells you right off that you are definitely in a historical period book:)
Here's my Friday Meme Post
I've never heard of Susan May Warren. Sounds like she writes historicals ... My pick is ORLEANS by Sherri L. Smith. It's a YA dystopian set in, where else, the Big Easy!
Duchess sounds good.
Happy Hopping!!

I am reading Lee Childs- Jack Reacher series.
But I think I will check out Orleans. I love anything New Orleans. I was re-married to my husband there two years ago in front of the statue at Jackson Square
