Welcome to The Friday 56 hosted by Freda’s Voice.
This is a really fun meme!
The only rules are to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader and find a sentence or a few (no spoilers) that grabs you and post it.
Then go over to Freda’s Voice and leave your link so we can visit your 56!
My 56 for this week is from
The Scale
The Martha’s Way Series #1
by Mika Jolie
My 56
She looked.
Damn! Not only did she look, she gawked and took in all of his glory.
She heard him chuckle and realized she was still staring, possibly drooling at the sight of his nakedness.

Synopsis
Twenty-seven year old, African-American, Minka Greene has to endure watching her twin sister marry the man she loves. Her weight is up, and her confidence is down. Not exactly the ideal time to meet the real man of her dreams.
The Scale opens in Martha’s Vineyard with Minka attending Keely and Blake’s engagement party at Martha’s Way, the beautiful inn owned and operated by the tall, blond, tattooed man with the piercing blue eyes. It just so happens Jason Montgomery is also Blake’s childhood friend and the best man. Dealing with a whirl of emotions, Minka faints in Jason’s arms.
When she wakes up naked in Jason’s bed after a night of passion, the Vineyard confirmed bachelor struggling with his own demons and the woman filled with self-doubt and pining for another man are joined in an experience that will change their lives.
The Scale is the first book of the Martha’s Way series.

Check out my 56 (With Book Beginnings).
It’s not normally mine, but I like to read outside my normal genres. I’ve discovered some wonderful author s and books doing that:)
Anything with drool-worthy men is something to add to the TBR. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, and this guy is a bit full of himself. LOL
Oh, you had me at the setting…and the premise is fun. Thanks! Here’s mine: “EIGHT HUNDRED GRAPES”
It did the same to me. Lots more humor too:)
I hope you enjoy this book, it does seem interesting.

Sounds like a fun, sexy story. I like the Martha’s Vineyard setting.
My Friday post features Widow’s Tears.

Makes me think of Cape Cod.
