First Lines Friday

First Lines Friday is a bookish meme hosted by Literary Marie. I encourage all of my fellow book bloggers and bookhearts to play along.

• Grab your current read(s).
• Share the first line(s).
• Include the title and author.

"A thousand lights glittered, incandescent stars twinkling in celebration. Golden champagne, the potable required by the night, flowed endlessly into fluted crystal. Mirth floated above harps and flutes, blended with conversation. Dazzling couples circled the parquet in elegant steps."

~ Power of Persuasion by Stacey Abrams writing as Selena Montgomery
