Book Give Away #3 The First Paragraph…

Every good book starts with a first paragraph that sets the tone for the rest of the book. It draws you in and captivates you.  Here’s the first paragraph from one of my favorite books - tell me the author and the name of the book for a chance to win.

In every life there is a turning point. A moment so tremendous, so sharp and clear that one feels as if one’s been hit in the chest, all the breath knocked out, and one knows, absolutely knows without the merest hint of a shadow of a doubt that one’s life will never be the same.

You have until midnight tonight to post your answers. All correct answers will be put in a hat and a winner will be drawn on Sunday morning. We’ll post all winners of today’s book give aways by noon EST on the blog tomorrow.
