First Line Friday - For the Love of Liberty by Julie Lessman










                                                         About the book:

A Match Made in Heaven?
Or Someplace a Whole Lot Warmer?

She’s stubborn, educated, and looking
to give women the vote.
He’s bullheaded, successful, and looking
to give her a piece of his mind.
But when things heat up, they just may give each other
a piece of their hearts.









First Line:

Prologue

Virginia City, 1860

"Abominable."

"Since everyone has been eliminated from the spelling bee except you and Mr. McShane, Miss O'Shea, we'll need both the definition and usage of the word in a sentence in addition to the spelling all right?
