Waiting on Wednesday: Edition Twenty-Seven
Hello there, happy readers and friends. It’s Wednesday again, and let me tell you, it feels like this week is dragging on. Normally the week’s go fast, but this week? It feels like it should be Wednesday night already. Anyone else having a slow week? Back on topic, which is books, and likely the reason you really want to see!! We’re on the meme train this week with a new edition of the popular Wednesday meme. Let’s do this Waiting on Wednesday: Twenty-Seventh Edition thing.
It’s Wednesday which means there’s another fun meme that bloggers enjoy taking part in. Today’s feature is all about the books we’re “Waiting On” with Can’t Wait Wednesday; a meme Finding Wonderland occasionally takes part in.
Organized by the lovely Tressa of Wishful Endings, here’s another edition of Can’t Wait Wednesday.
Waiting on Wednesday: Twenty-Seventh Edition
Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted here to spotlight and talk about the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released as well. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. (Find out more here.)
Here I go again. I’m re-sharing more from my favorite genre because I’m a simpler reader like that. This time, it’s a double feature. Two books authored by the same author, who I have a feeling is going to write my kind of rom-com, reader jam. I mean, they just sound all kinds of fabulous. Also, aren’t two books always better than one?
Book one is a reunion romance that sounds like it’s sure to have some emotional baggage, but in a good one.
Book two is the opposites attract scenario, and yeah, I’m ready for these books.
Our debut author feature is Jessica Kate who’s first novel is right around the corner in July. Her follow up book doesn’t release until January 2020, but still, the excitement is real. Just read through these synopsis’ and tell me, don’t they sound fabulous?

Natalie Groves was meant for great things. But soon after her fiancé left, Natalie’s father was diagnosed with cancer. Suddenly her grand plans evaporated . . . and God felt very far away.
Fast-forward seven years, and an internship presents Natalie a chance at her destiny—but she needs a job to work around it. And the only offer available is worse than a life sentence. Her ex Jeremy, now back in town, is desperate for help with his infant son and troubled teenage niece, Lili.

When Jeremy and Natalie join forces, sparks fly. But will either of them get burned along the way? – Goodreads
A GIRL’S GUIDE TO THE OUTBACK
Author: Jessica Kate | Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Genre: Fiction; Contemporary Romance | Publication Date: January 2020
Samuel Payton is a passionate youth pastor in Virginia, but beneath the surface, Sam’s still recovering from a failed business. His coworker—start-up expert Kimberly Foster—is brilliant, fearless, and capable, but her mother’s rejection from a young age till now has left her defensive and longing for a family. Two people have never been more at odds—or more attracted to one another. And every day at work, the sparks are flying.
When Kimberly’s ambitious plans for Sam’s ministry butt up against his risk-averse nature, Sam decides that obligations to family trump his work for the church. He quits the ministry and flies home to Australia to help his family save their struggling farm—much to Kimberly’s chagrin. As Kimberly’s grand plans flounder, she is forced to face the truth: that no one can replace Sam. To what lengths will she go to get him back? – Goodreads
Yeah. I’m so ready for more of this kind of fiction. I just know I’ll love these.
