Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme
hosted by Jill at Breaking The
Spine and is where we can talk about books we are looking
forward to being released!
Here are my picks for the week:
Summary:
Welcome to Sultry Springs, Texas: where first loves find second chances…
Nine years after June Augustine hightailed it out of Sultry Springs with her heart in pieces, one thing stands between her and her dream of opening an upscale martini bar: a bogus warrant from her tiny Texas hometown. Now she’s stuck in the sticks for a month of community service under the supervision of the devilishly sexy Luke Gallagher, her first love and ex-best friend.
If Texas in July wasn’t already hot enough, working side-by-side with June would make any man melt. Luke wants nothing more than to strip her down and throw her in the lake—the same lake where they were found buck naked and guilty as sin all those years ago. In their heads, they’re older and wiser. But their hearts tell a different story…
Praise for SULTRY WITH A TWIST:
"Witty and fun, warm and endearing, Macy Beckett will stir your heartstrings!" Carly Phillips, New York Times Bestselling Author
"Hilarious, heartwarming, sexy and real--you'll fall in love, guaranteed!" Lori Foster, New York Times Bestselling Author

Why I'm Waiting:
I love romance novels and this one sounds like the type of contemporary romance that I'd like to read. I just love how it sounds.
Summary:
This hot new series follows a trio of Highland lairds, who are driving King James crazy with their constant clan battles and uproarious way of life.
Laird Ciaran MacGregor discovers the beautiful, wounded Lady Rosalia Armstrong while journeying to the king's court. Already burdened with the task of maintaining the peace in his lands, Ciaran has very little patience for this headstrong woman. She's as fearsome as the men trying to kill him for his lands, and their verbal sparring leaves him burning for a more intimate relationship. And if Rosalia's not careful, she'll soon discover his prowess...on and off the battlefield.

Summary:
Sweet Plains, Texas, wasn’t so sweet to Cody, Noah, and Beau Tucker. But now the Tucker boys are men, ready to take on the questions that have haunted them since they left home…
Cody Tucker shook the dust of his two-bit hometown off his boots ten years ago—right about the time his college sweetheart, Shelby Lynn Harris, married his so-called best friend. But when his dad dies, Cody finds himself home again and knee deep in the past. Except now his rowdy beer buddy is the sheriff, his housekeeper is a blue-ribbon chili chef, and the family ranch is in the red. The only thing that hasn’t changed is Shelby Lynn…
Shelby Lynn has gone through a lot of heartache thanks to Cody. But that’s all over now. She just wants a chance to live the life she’s made for herself in peace. The trouble is, the Sweet Plains chili cook off is heating up, the Ladies of Sweet are as riled as hornets, and as soon as Cody gets near, she’s forgets all about peace. Cody is pure temptation—and she knows just how good it feels to give in…

Sultry with a Twist and Tucker's Crossing both look like great choices - I think I'm kind of done with the highland romance kick for a while anyway but I have to say "rawrrrr" for the cover of "Temptation in a Kilt" - he could tempt me:)
