WAITING ON WEDNESDAY: Gilt Hollow & One Was Lost

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine

This week features two books that I've recently just discovered and they both look so good that I had to share! And here they are:

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY: Settling The Score by R.S. Grey (The Summer Games #1)

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's pick is:

Settling The Score

Title: Settling The Score
Author: R.S. Grey
Series: The Summer Games
Publication Date: May 2nd 2016
Genre: New Adult, Romance, Contemporary, Sports & Games

From the USA TODAY Bestselling author of Scoring Wilder, comes a sexy new standalone novel.As an Olympic rookie, Andie Foster has spent far more time in her cleats than between the sheets. For 21 years, her Friday nights have consisted of blocking shots rather than taking them. But now that she's landed in Rio, she's ready to see for herself if the rumors about the Olympic Village are true:
• The athletes are all sex-crazed maniacs...
• The committee passes out condoms like candy...
• The games continue long after the medals have been handed out...
As Andie walks the line between rumor and reality, she's forced into the path of Frederick Archibald, a decorated Olympic swimmer and owner of a sexy British accent--too bad he's unavailable in a way that "it's complicated" doesn't even begin to explain.
In other words: off limits.It doesn't matter that he has abs that could bring peace to the Middle East and a smile that makes even the Queen blush; Andie fully intends on keeping her focus on the soccer field. But the Village is small. Suffocating. Everywhere Andie goes, Freddie happens to be there--shirtless, wet from the pool, and determined to show her a whole new meaning of the phrase "international affairs".
Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

This week, I also have two books I would like to share. I want to read these two so bad and I cannot wait for their release. Funnily enough, they're both thrillers, which I love :D

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY: Damaged Like Us & Please Don't Tell

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine. 

This week, I have two books I want to show you that I am so excited about. They are all releasing sometime this year so it is perfect for my later monthly reads :D

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY: I'll Meet You There & Amour Amour

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine.
This week, I have actually chosen two!! Only because both of them I am DYING for!! :D

 I'll Meet You There

Title: I'll Meet You There
Author: Heather Demetrios
Publication Date: February 3rd 2015
Publisher: Henry Holt and Co.

If seventeen-year-old Skylar Evans were a typical Creek View girl, her future would involve a double-wide trailer, a baby on her hip, and the graveyard shift at Taco Bell. But after graduation, the only thing standing between straightedge Skylar and art school are three minimum-wage months of summer. Skylar can taste the freedom—that is, until her mother loses her job and everything starts coming apart. Torn between her dreams and the people she loves, Skylar realizes everything she’s ever worked for is on the line.
Nineteen-year-old Josh Mitchell had a different ticket out of Creek View: the Marines. But after his leg is blown off in Afghanistan, he returns home, a shell of the cocksure boy he used to be. What brings Skylar and Josh together is working at the Paradise—a quirky motel off California’s dusty Highway 99. Despite their differences, their shared isolation turns into an unexpected friendship and soon, something deeper.

I have been wanting this book for AGES!! I read an excerpt that Heather Demetrios put on her website, and it just hooked me. I KNOW that this is going to be an emotional ride, probably a really unique one too. I'm just looking forward to it so much!!

Here is the EXCERPT if you want to read it!

Then, I also have another book I am SO LOOKING FORWARD TO!!

And you should know already that these authors are MY LIFE!!

Amour Amour

Title: Amour Amour
Author(s): Krista & Becca Ritchie
Publication Date: December 12th 2014

Love is a circus
"Every day,” he says lowly, “I hold a person’s life in my hands. The circus is based one-hundred percent off of trust. I give it all to someone, and they give it all to me.”
The best aerial technique won’t land 21-year-old Thora James her dream role in Amour—a sexy new acrobatic show on the Vegas strip. Thora knows she’s out of her element the second she meets Amour’s leading performer. Confident, charming and devilishly captivating, 26-year-old Nikolai Kotova aggravatingly lives up to his nickname as the “God of Russia.”
When Thora unknowingly walks into the crosshairs of Nikolai’s after-show, her audition process begins way too soon. Unprofessional. That’s what Nik calls their “non-existent” relationship. It’s not like Thora can avoid him. For one, they may be partners in the future--acrobatic partners, that is. But getting closer to Nik means diving deeper into sin city and into his dizzying world.
Thora wants to perform with him, but when someone like Nikolai attracts the spotlight wherever he goes—Thora fears that she’s destined to be “just background” to his spellbinding show.
This sexy and exhilarating New Adult Romance can best be described as Cirque du Soleil meets the steamy, athletic romance of Center Stage. 
*standalone & no love triangles—recommended for readers 18+ for mature content*

As you probably already know from my love for the Addicted Series by Krista & Becca Ritchie, I AM DYING FOR THIS BOOK!!

Anything that Krista and Becca puts out...I'm in.

Nothing else to say.

No complaints.

Nothing.

I just go ahead, and scream.

And look at this book!! It's beautiful! I just cannot wait for it to come out!!

So that was it for this week's WOW!

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY: Ask Me by Kimberly Pauley

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine.

I haven't been doing this meme for a while, and now I'm trying to catch up. 

Before, I was just so busy especially since I went on holiday and then came back to school. I didn't have any time AT ALL. I didn't even have time for homework! And now there's dance classes and swimming. GOSH!

Anyway, I don't want to bore you with my ramblings just yet, so here is my pick for this week's WOW:

Ask Me by Kimberly Pauley

Title: Ask Me

Author: Kimberly Pauley

Publication Date: April 8th 2014

Publisher: Soho Teen

Ask Aria Morse anything, and she must answer with the truth. Yet she rarely understands the cryptic words she‘s compelled to utter. Blessed—or cursed—with the power of an Oracle who cannot decipher her own predictions, she does her best to avoid anyone and everyone. 

 

But Aria can no longer hide when Jade, one of the few girls at school who ever showed her any kindness, disappears. Any time Aria overhears a question about Jade, she inadvertently reveals something new, a clue or hint as to why Jade vanished. But like stray pieces from different puzzles, her words never present a clear picture.

 

Then there’s Alex, damaged and dangerous, but the first person other than Jade to stand up for her. And Will, who offers a bond that seems impossible for a girl who’s always been alone. Both were involved with Jade. Aria may be the only one who can find out what happened, but the closer she gets to solving the crime, the more she becomes a target. Not everyone wants the truth to come out.

This week's pick is:

Until It Hurts To Stop by Jennifer R. Hubbard

Title: Until It Hurts To Stop

Author: Jennifer R. Hubbard

Publication Date: September 12th 2013

Publisher: Viking Juvenile

Pages: 256 pages

When you can’t trust anyone, how can you ever feel safe?
In seventh grade, Maggie Camden was the class outcast. Every day, the other girls tripped her, pinched her, trapped her in the bathroom, told her she would be better off dead. Four years have passed since then, and Maggie’s tormentors seem to have moved on. The ringleader of them all, Raleigh Barringer, even moved out of town. But Maggie has never stopped watching for attacks, and every laugh still sounds like it’s at her expense. The only time Maggie feels at peace is when she’s hiking up in the mountains with her best friend, Nick. Lately, though, there’s a new sort of tension between the two of them—a tension both dangerous and delicious. But how can Maggie expect anything more out of Nick when all she’s ever been told is that she’s ugly, she’s pathetic, she’s unworthy of love? And how can she ever feel safe, now that Raleigh Barringer is suddenly—terrifyingly—back in town?
