Can't Wait Wednesday

 

Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine.

 

From the author of Dirty Lying Faeries and Dirty Lying Dragons comes a new installment in the Enchanted Fates series in which a young woman involuntarily finds herself in the company of a rogue pack of wolves, with plenty of troubles of their own.

When Juniper stumbles across a small group of strangers during her morning power walk, she jumps in to help an injured member of the party. However, her act of kindness backfires when she’s savagely bitten by what turns out to be a very ill werewolf.

The pack’s acting leader, Dom, gives June a choice: she can return to the human world post-transformation or she can join the pack. Either way, she’ll never be the same again.

June will have to decide if she wants to face her new reality and take her place with Dom in the pack or risk tearing everything apart.

 

 

I still need to read the second book of the series, but I think since each book focuses on a different couple it's probably one you don't "have" to read in order, but you know I always do! Lol. But I'm just one book behind but I am super excited for this one by the bits and bobs I've been hearing about it so far!

 

TITLE: Dirty Lying Wolves
AUTHOR: Sabrina Blackburry
PUBLISHER: Wattpad Books
GENRE: Urban Fantasy
RELEASE DATE: September 10, 2024

New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan returns to the high-stakes, sweeping world of dragons, romance, and drama first evoked in her bestselling young adult Firelight series, in a brand-new epic adult romantasy series.

Dragons are extinct. Witches are outcast. Magic is dying.

But human lust for power is immortal.

Dragon fire no longer blisters the skies over Penterra, but inside the lavish palace, life is still perilous…especially for Tamsyn. Raised in the glittering court alongside the princesses, it's her duty to be punished for their misdeeds. Treated as part of the royal family but also as the lowliest servant, Tamsyn fits nowhere. Her only friend is Stig, Captain of the Guard...though sometimes she thinks he wants more than friendship.

When Fell, the Beast of the Borderlands, descends on her home, Tamsyn’s world becomes even more dangerous. To save the pampered princesses from a fate worse than death, she is commanded to don a veil and marry the brutal warrior. She agrees to the deception even though it means leaving Stig, and the only life she’s ever known, behind.

The wedding night begins with unexpected passion—and ends in near violence when her trickery is exposed. Rather than start a war, Fell accepts Tamsyn as his bride...but can he accept the dark secrets she harbors—secrets buried so deep even she doesn’t know they exist? For Tamsyn is more than a royal whipping girl, more than the false wife of a man who now sees her as his enemy. And when those secrets emerge, they will ignite a flame bright enough to burn the entire kingdom to the bone.

Magic is not dead...it is only sleeping. And it will take one ordinary girl with an extraordinary destiny to awaken it.

 

I read the Firelight trilogy eons ago! Like when it first came out, so yeah...eons ago! Lol. Not only has over a decade passed but we're looking around 1000 books almost later too! I briefly remember the first involving dragons and forbidden love, but I honestly can't remember if Tamsyn popped up in that series or not! And since I am an insanely slower reader these days I won't be able to re-read the trilogy for a refresher but since this is the start of a new series in the same world, I feel like I'll be okay. I just might miss cameo appearances!
