Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by 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.
Here’s one of the books I’m waiting on ~
Title: The Betrothed
Series: The Betrothed #1
Author: Kiera Cass
Expected Release Date: May 5, 2020
Blurb:
She’s captured the king’s heart. But who’s captured hers? #1 New York Times bestselling author Kiera Cass is ready to retake her crown as the queen of YA romance with this sparkling new duology.
The young king of Coroa has never been the type to settle down—that is, until he meets Hollis Brite.
Hollis has grown up at the castle, among the other daughters of nobility who hoped beyond hope that they’d catch the king’s eye. So when King Jameson declares his love for her, Hollis is shocked—and thrilled.
But she soon realizes that along with the extravagant presents and fawning attention, this new life brings outsized expectations—expectations that make her wonder if she’s really cut out for life as a royal.
And when she meets an Isolten stranger with the mysterious power to see right into her heart, she starts to wonder: Is there more to life outside the palace walls?
Why do I want to read this??? I really enjoyed her Selection series, so I’m definitely up for giving this one a try!
What are you waiting on this week?

I’m hesitantly interested in this one. LOL I enjoyed The Selection series (well, the three original books) but I’m concerned that this one sounds too similar to The Selection (just without the competition aspect).

We shall see!! But, I would also say that it’s been so long since I’ve read the Selection series that I might not notice if they have similar vibes…unless they are very similar, of course.
