Waiting on Wednesday #94

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.

Cassie's Waiting On: 

Violet Grenade by Victoria Scott
Publication Date: May 2, 2017

Synopsis:

DOMINO: A runaway with blood on her hands.

CAIN: A silent boy about to explode.

MADAM KARINA: A woman who demands obedience.

WILSON: The one who will destroy them all.

When Madam Karina discovers Domino in an alleyway, she offers her a position inside her home for entertainers in secluded West Texas. Left with few alternatives and an agenda of her own, Domino accepts. It isn’t long before she is fighting her way up the ranks to gain the madam’s approval. But after suffering weeks of bullying and unearthing the madam’s secrets, Domino decides to leave. It’ll be harder than she thinks, though, because the madam doesn’t like to lose inventory. But then, Madam Karina doesn’t know about the person living inside Domino’s mind.

Madam Karina doesn’t know about Wilson.

I'm so intrigued by the synopsis for this new book by Victoria Scott. I'm not sure what to expect, and if I know anything about Ms. Scott it's that unpredictable is what she does best! I'm really looking forward to checking this one when it comes out in May. It's definitely going to be different from what we have come to know of Ms. Scott, and that's one thing that makes this one so exciting!


Jocelyn's Waiting On: 

Lucky in Love by Kasie West 
Publication Date: July 25th, 2017 

Synopsis:

Maddie doesn't believe in luck. She's all about hard work and planning ahead. But one night, on a whim, she buys a lottery ticket. And then, to her astonishment --

She wins!

In a flash, Maddie's life is unrecognizable. No more stressing about college scholarships. Suddenly, she's talking about renting a yacht. And being in the spotlight at school is fun... until rumors start flying, and random people ask her for loans. Now, Maddie isn't sure who she can trust.

Except for Seth Nguyen, her funny, charming coworker at the local zoo. Seth doesn't seem aware of Maddie's big news. And, for some reason, she doesn't want to tell him. But what will happen if he learns her secret?

This book seems so cute! I'm not usually one for frilly contemps, but Kasie West has a way of making them swoony and enjoyable. I'm sure I'm not the only one who is waiting for the release of this one!
