"A narrow trail snakes in front of me, lit only by the full moon. If I can make it to the road...or hide...
Low-haning branches scrape across my face, breaking through my raised arms and drawing blood. But I can't stop. I have to keep running. Can he smell my blood?" -Kiss of Death by P. D. Martin
"Peering through new gree foliage into a large field that the surrounding woodland sheltered from winds that could roar up the dale from Soway Firth, Will Jardine said, 'What if Dunwythie catches us here?'" -Seduced By A Rogue
"My mind raced as I weaved a path through the crowd. 'Harry, can you hear me?' I yelled. Holding the phone to my ear, I struggled to make out what he said over the poor signal and blaring noise-and then the call died." -The Willlows: Haven by Hope Collier
"The alarm clock clicked from 6:04 to 6:05, and let out a sadistic buzz that jolted Maggie from a deep, comfortable sleep." -Destruction From Twins by L. Carroll
"'Lookin' good, baby' the guy yelled from across the room, exposing his bright white fangs." -Rock 'n' Roll Is Undead by Rose Pressey
Yeah, more books to read! Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
Thanks for participating in FLF.
ReplyDeleteI see a common theme in all of these first lines. Either running, danger, or peace. But they all have a sense of urgent panic.
:)
ReplyDeleteAnd huh, that's weird. My books are conspiracing? against me! They're having similar themes!
