Yayaya, HAPPY FRIYAY, book lovers and friends šWe’re back with another First Lines Friday! This is a weekly feature for book lovers hosted by Wandering Words. What if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines? Here are THE RULES:
- Pick a book off your shelf (it could be your current read or on your TBR) and open to the first page
- Copy the first few lines, but donāt give anything else about the book away just yet ā you need to hook the reader first
- Finally⦠reveal the book!

First lines:
“There was a reason Gavin Scott rarely drank.
He was bad at it.
As in, face-planted on the carpet while reaching for the bottle bad. And too drunk to see in the dark so might as well stay down bad.”

Do you recognize the book these first lines come from?







Okay, okay, calm yourself Loki, mate...

*drumroll please!*


The book is: The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams

The first rule of book club:
You don’t talk about book club.
Nashville Legends second baseman Gavin Scott’s marriage is in major league trouble. Heās recently discovered a humiliating secret: his wife Thea has always faked the Big O. When he loses his cool at the revelation, itās the final straw on their already strained relationship. Thea asks for a divorce, and Gavin realizes heās let his pride and fear get the better of him.Ā
Welcome to the Bromance Book Club.
Distraught and desperate, Gavin finds help from an unlikely source: a secret romance book club made up of Nashville’s top alpha men. With the help of their current read, a steamy Regency titledĀ Courting the Countess, the guys coach Gavin on saving his marriage. But it’ll take a lot more than flowery words and grand gestures for this hapless Romeo to find his inner hero and win back the trust of his wife.
