Waiting on Wednesday #12


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Last week I was so out of it that I forgot to even add a gif to the post! Shameful! But this week I think I have a better handle on things. Today is my mom's birthday, so that is something! But lets get to the book gifts we are waiting for.


Title: Fiendish
Author: Brenna Yovanoff
Release Date: August 14, 2014


Clementine DeVore spent ten years trapped in a cellar, pinned down by willow roots, silenced and forgotten.
Now she’s out and determined to uncover who put her in that cellar and why.

When Clementine was a child, dangerous and inexplicable things started happening in New South Bend. The townsfolk blamed the fiendish people out in the Willows and burned their homes to the ground. But magic kept Clementine alive, walled up in the cellar for ten years, until a boy named Fisher sets her free. Back in the world, Clementine sets out to discover what happened all those years ago. But the truth gets muddled in her dangerous attraction to Fisher, the politics of New South Bend, and the Hollow, a fickle and terrifying place that seems increasingly temperamental ever since Clementine reemerged.

The creepy cover, the synopsis, everything about this says that this will be a book that keeps me up at night for one of two reasons, or maybe both.
1.) I'll be so entangled that I won't want to put it down.
OR
2.) I'll be creeped to the point that I don't want to close my eyes.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that both, one and two, are true.

Author: Alice Clayton
Release Date: September 2, 2014

Readers back for a third round of the bestselling Cocktail series will enjoy a madcap romantic comedy about bodice ripping and chest heaving, fiery passion and love everlasting. Plus a dash of paperwork filing and horseshi—wait, what?
By day, Viv Franklin designs software programs. By night, Vivian’s a secret romance-novel junkie who longs for a knight in shining armor, or a cowboy on a wild stallion, or a strapping firefighter to sweep her off her feet. And she gets to wear the bodice—don’t forget the bodice.
When a phone call brings news that she’s inherited a beautiful old home in Mendocino, California from a long-forgotten aunt, she moves her entire life across the country to embark on what she sees as a great, romance-novel-worthy adventure. But romance novels always have a twist, don’t they?
There’s a cowboy, one that ignites her loins. Because Cowboy Hank is totally loin-ignition worthy. But there’s also a librarian, Clark Barrow. And he calls her Vivian. Can tweed jackets and elbow patches compete with chaps and spurs? You bet your sweet cow pie.
In Screwdrivered, Alice Clayton pits Superman against Clark in a hilarious and hot battle that delights a swooning Viv/Vivian.

Also within this book, an answer to the question of the ages: Why ride a cowboy when you can ride a librarian?
I was already wanting to read this as soon as I finished Rusty Nailed but last night after going to the signing and hearing Alice read a little from it, I was hooked. I loved Viv from Rusty Nailed and I think hearing her own little love story will be amazing.

What has you waiting on the edge of your seat this week?

Until Next Time!
