Book Beginnings on Fridays/The Friday 56 - January 12th





This week I'm joining in Book Beginnings on Friday. It's hosted by Rose City Reader.  This is where we post the beginning of the books we are reading or will be reading.  






I'm also joining in for the Friday 56.  

Freda at Freda's Voice started and hosted The Friday 56 for a long, long time. She is taking a break and Anne at My Head if Full of Books has taken on hosting duties in her absence. Please visit Anne's blog and link to your Friday 56 post.


Rules:
*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader.
*Find any sentence that grabs you.
*Post it.
*Link it here.

It's that simple.



I just finished reading this one and loved it!



Book Beginnings

Kacie Griffin closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose, trying to process what she'd just heard from her ranch foreman.

From 56% on my e-reader.

"Are we still on for dinner tonight?  I have something in mind that I think Skye will like."

Synopsis from Goodreads:

When rancher Kacie Griffin is faced with the imminent retirement of her long-time ranch foreman, Stewart, she defers to his trusted opinion for a replacement. The only problem with Stewart’s he’s a city boy.Clay Fischer is tired of nine-to-five in a windowless office and wants to return to his rancher roots. He knows he must win over a very opinionated and strong-willed Kacie before he gets the job permanently, but arriving for the interview in a starched white shirt and brand-spanking new ostrich boots might not have been the best idea.Skye Mallery, a winsome seven-year-old foster child, soon enters their lives and quickly wins their hearts, teaching them lessons in what it means to be a family. That is, until her biological father learns of her existence and threatens to destroy the “family” they’ve created.
