Book Beginnings is a weekly meme hosted by Rose City Reader that asks you to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you're reading.
Friday 56 is hosted by Freda's Voice and asks you to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your ereader and share a non-spoilery sentence or two.
Book Beginning
ViCross Yacht, Cape York, Australia
The territory of being a soldier came with being assaulted. By the enemy. But when one of your own did the betraying, it carved a cruel mark.

"Who's next, Corporal Straider? You do know that I have men hunting down the princess."
About the Book
Never Again.
A vow written in the blood of the fallen is threatened in Australia’s rugged Top End.
Eamon “Titanis” Straider left the military and civilization behind after betrayal cost the life of a teammate. Living on this super yacht, the ViCross, Eamon reluctantly agrees to host an event for his parents, who are part of the Australian political machine. When an attractive woman arrives with his mother, Eamon is furious—and determined to find out what she is hiding.
Lady Ellis Rostov-Leclair has never felt so threatened as she does by the infamous “Beast of Cape York,” a man notorious for removing people—by force if necessary—from his yacht. His uncanny perception endangers not only her reason for being aboard the ship, but a secret she’s held for twenty years.
When the yacht is seized by a man with one goal: make those responsible for his brother’s death pay—the Beast of Cape York must live up to his name and protect those under his charge, or die trying.

It is interesting to see what other people enjoy reading! I was reluctant to try Ronie's books at first because they didn't seem like my cup of tea, but my mom kept pestering me to read them, lol. So I did and absolutely loved them. She's one of my favorite authors now. Thanks for coming by! :)
DeleteSounds interesting. This week I have an urban fantasy novel - Blood Gamble by Melissa F. Olson. Happy reading!
