We were talking about first lines today in the #writephant chat. These are the first lines from my last four books, which are down the cosy end of the spectrum but have plenty of plot (and also romance and always happy endings):

The Uses of Illicit Art: As had become his morning routine on the day the London papers arrived in the seaside village of Lovelly-on-Sea, Kit Whitely came into the bakery to collect a tray of tea and treats and take it across to share with Miss Edith Knight

The Use of Myriad Arts: It was the summer of the Great Stink, Parliament greatly regretted its riverside location, and Genevieve McAvey was attending a hanging.

Fair Haven: The pie smelled about right now

Domesticated Magic: Mateo was up well before the sun to dress in the formal robes for the morning ritual, and he was not happy about it.
