How does Richelle hook us? I pulled a few of her books from my shelf and began reading. I confess I got so caught up in the story, I forgot to analysis anything. So all I can report on is great first lines. She captures some unusual idea or activity.
Here’s some examples from her novels.
I didn’t think my day could get any worse until my best friend told me she might be going crazy. Again. – Frostbite
I wish the guy on top of me would hurry up because I was getting bored. – Succubus Dreams
I’d seen weirder things than a haunted shoe, but not many. – Storm Born
I decided to take a stab doing the same. You should definitely try this at home.
I knew insanity was pervasive here, I just didn’t realize it was contagious.
Moments like this are why I don’t keep chocolate in my purse.
If I ever truly thought I could escape my destiny, then the knive in my back just proved me wrong.
Send me your great first lines.
