Can’t Wait Wednesday: A Match for Emma by Pepper Basham

October 16, 2019 by Suzie Waltner Leave a Comment

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. Generally, they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. If you’re continuing with WOW, feel free to link those up as well! Find out more here.

Welcome back! This week I’m highlighting one of my can’t-miss authors. Pepper Basham is taking her first foray into the friends to more trope (my favorite one) and returning readers to her Mitchell’s Crossroads series. Whenever I pick up a book by Pepper Basham, I know I am going to get plenty of humor, strong family connections, and some terrific romance.

Can’t Wait Wednesday: A Pursuit of Home by Kristi Ann Hunter

Do you have a favorite genre or do you only read in one? I tend to jump all over the place with what I read but mostly between romantic suspense, contemporary romance, and historical. My favorite historical period to read are set in the Regency period, and Kristi Ann Hunter excels and bringing that era to life on the page. Plus, in the series that will wrap up next month, she takes a look at some of the people society preferred to sweep under the rug. Those are just a couple of reasons why I can’t wait for A Pursuit of Home.

Can’t Wait Wednesday: The Dating Charade

I’ve met Melissa Ferguson a couple of times and she’s funny! Plus she’s got some adorable pictures of her kiddos on IG! I’m really looking forward to her upcoming debut!

About the Book

Just when you think you’ve met your match . . . the charade begins.

Cassie Everson is an expert at escaping bad first dates. And, after years of meeting, greeting, and running from the men who try to woo her, Cassie is almost ready to retire her hopes for a husband—and children—altogether.

But fate has other plans, and Cassie’s online dating profile catches the eye of firefighter Jett Bentley. In Jett’s memory, Cassie Everson is the unreachable girl-of-legend from their high school days. Nervously, he messages her, setting off a chain of events that forces a reluctant Cassie back into the dating game.

No one is more surprised than Cassie when her first date with Jett is a knockout. But when they both go home and find three children dropped in their laps—each—they independently decide to do the right and mature thing: hide the kids from each other while sorting it all out. What could go wrong?

Melissa Ferguson’s hilarious and warmhearted debut reminds us that love can come in very small packages—and that sometimes our best-laid plans aren’t nearly as rewarding and fun as the surprises that come our way.

Can you believe it’s the final Wednesday of September? There are still so many books to read as 2019 winds down. Including Smoke Screen by Terri Blackstock. This is one of my favorite romantic suspense authors and the description of this book promises a lot of conflict!

Can’t Wait Wednesday: The Country Music Star’s Billionaire Fake Fiance

That title is a bit of a mouthful. I am looking forward to this rom-com for a couple of reasons. First, it’s set in Nashville and I enjoy reading books set in places I’m familiar with (and you can’t get any more familiar than where you live). And second, the premise of the book opens up the possibilities for plenty to go humorously wrong.
