December 23rd's Friday Post

Hello and welcome to this week's Friday post.  As usual, I'll be linking up to:

Book Beginnings
First Line Friday
Friday 56
Book Blogger Hop

This week, for the first three, I'll be pulling teasers from Rum and Choke, the fourth Chloe Jackson, Sea Glass Saloon Mystery from Sherry Harris.

These books are always a lot of fun, as you can tell from this opening:

Have you ever walked into work to find your boss and coworker staring at you with over eager expressions?  Me either - until today and I immediately realized something was up.

I'll admit, I had a little smile on my face as I read this.  Yet it made me want to read on to discover exactly what was up.

Of course, there is a mystery, too.  This is me, after all.  And page 57 (yes, I'm cheating a bit for the Friday 56) gives that part a jolt.  Chloe is out on a boat with her friend Ann for safety as Ann goes diving for a hidden treasure.  However....

A splash made me put down the binoculars as Ann's head emerged.
"Did you find anything?"
"Yes," she said.  "Give me a hand."
I was expecting a treasure chest, but she had her arm around the neck of a body.

I enjoyed this book, which isn't a surprise since I love Sherry Harris's books.  It comes out Tuesday, and my review will be up then.

Let's wrap things up with the Book Blogger Hop for the week.  This week's question is:

Did Santa bring you any books?

I'm expecting books for Christmas since that was the majority of my wish list.  However, since I'm posting this on Friday and Christmas isn't until Sunday, I don't know which books I got yet.

Merry early Christmas to all who will be celebrating this weekend.  No matter what you are doing, I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
