Goodwin RELEASE DATE: February 2, 2026 PAGES: 240 Love and Marriage… and a Suite Heart Carriage I’ve got this theory: Cutting hair is much like forging an unbreakable bond, sealed on small-town gossip and sacred vows of monogamy.

Please join me in welcoming author Jimmy Deas to the blog today to chat about his mystery/suspense novel, Ripples! Jimmy Deas grew up in the small North Florida towns of Lee, Madison, Greenville, and Jennings and his life was shaped by the culture of small towns and rural areas. He is sometimes called the North Florida author because his books reflect the uniqueness of this special part of Florida.

Happy Friday & welcome to the First Line Friday link-up! It’s time to grab the book nearest to you and leave a comment with the first line. Today I’m delighted to feature the first line of The Bird of Bedford Manor by Michelle Griep. I always love Michelle’s books (The Captive Heart, anyone?) and this one looks especially delicious to sink into on a blustery winter night… or any time of day or season because it’s MICHELLE GRIEP and she’s amazing.
