Book Beginnings + Friday 56: An Unlikely Proposal by Toni Shiloh

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.

This week I'm featuring An Unlikely Proposal by Toni Shiloh, a really sweet Hallmark-esque romance.

About the Book
Their friendship can survive almost anything…

For two best friends,

marriage could be their greatest test yet…

Trinity Davis must not have heard firefighter Omar Young correctly. Did her handsome widowed best friend just suggest they get married? Omar needs a mom for his adorable little girls, and it’ll fix Trinity’s financial woes. But saying “I do” isn’t just business. Especially when the only vow they’re in danger of breaking is their promise to not fall in love…

From Harlequin Love Inspired: Uplifting stories of faith, forgiveness and hope.

Book Beginnings
"Let's get married."

Friday 56
Hopefully their love stories would be better than hers - jilted at the altar and now a bride in name only. She didn't want that for Faith and Joy, but was there even such a thing as true love?

What have you been reading lately?

    It really does sound like a sweet book! I don't know if I could do what Trinity is willing to do for her friend, but fingers crossed something beautiful comes from it! Thanks for sharing and I hope you have a lovely weekend :)
