Waiting on Wednesday Dec 29th

By Barb Drozdowich

It’s time to share what books we are waiting on!  Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.  I’m anxiously anticipating two books – one that is due out in January and one in February.

To Desire a Wicked Duke is due out Feb 22, 2011.  Isn’t this cover beautiful??  Here’s the blurb from Nicole Jordan’s website:

Passion ignites in Nicole Jordan’s delectable, dazzling conclusion to The Courtship Wars.

Two years after losing her beloved fiancé to war, Tess Blanchard feels ready to chance love again. Thus, she’s aghast when a threatening scandal forces her to wed her longtime nemesis, Ian Sutherland, Duke of Rotham. The impossibly arrogant, irresistibly seductive nobleman is the last man she could ever imagine loving! Making matters worse, Tess discovers secrets in Rotham’s wicked past that send her fleeing London for his remote castle in Cornwall.

Having long desired Tess, Ian is exasperated that the ton thinks he’s driven his reluctant new bride from their marriage bed and so follows hard on her heels. Naturally, their spirited rivalry leads to glorious, pleasure-filled nights — complicated by a mysterious ghost who haunts Ian’s castle and Tess’s vexing insistence that he play matchmaker to her friends. But can blazing desire between two warring hearts turn into wedded bliss and timeless love?

The second books I’m eagerly anticipating is by another of my favorite authors:

How to Woo a Reluctant Lady by Sabrina Jeffries is due out Jan 18, 2011.  This is also a book in a series that I’ve been following.  Here’s the blurb from Ms. Jeffries’ Website:

Lady Minerva has been a reader favorite since the start of my new Regency series The Hellions of Halstead Hall.  Now it’s time to tell her story in How to Woo a Reluctant Lady (Pocket, January 2011). Book 3 finds Lady Minerva armed with a clever plan to thwart Grandma Hetty’s decree that she—along with all her brothers and sisters marry by year’s end.

What are you waiting on??

    Nice list Barb. I might have to add Nicole to my list.

    I can’t wait for the Sabrina’s book too! I think this is going to be a good one. Minerva will definitely lead Giles on a merry chase.

    Stop by and check out my WOW this week.

    Happy New Years!
