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.
Summary:
A stunning breakout novel from the "New York Times "bestselling author of "Still Missing "in which a woman is convicted of her sister s murder
Toni Murphy was eighteen when she and her boyfriend, Ryan, were wrongly convicted of the murder of her younger sister. Now she is thirty-four and back in her hometown, working every day to forge and adjust to a new life on the outside. She s doing everything in her power to avoid violating her parole and going back to prison. But nothing is making that easy not Ryan, who is convinced he can figure out the truth; not her mother, who clearly doubts Toni s innocence; and certainly not the group of women who made Toni s life miserable in high school and who may have darker secrets than anyone realizes. Before Toni can truly move on, she must risk everything to find out the truth and clear her name.

Why I'm Waiting:
I was a huge fan of Chevy's first book Still Missing and while I haven't gotten around to reading her other two novels that are currently out I can't wait to red this one. The premise is amazing and I know from past experience in reading this author that she knows how to weave an intricate web of mystery, suspense and emotional overload together.
Plus she's Canadian so how can I not want to read this?
Summary:
Marley Cartman is fed up with arrogant rich guys who treat her like garbage, so she vows to only date men with modest paychecks and a little dirt under their nails.
Her new boss, William Barclay, is exactly the kind of man she's trying to avoid: an eccentric millionaire with duct shape shoes and an unexplained vendetta against her.
But as Will and Marley butt heads over grumpy badgers and phallic artifacts, they discover that sometimes the opposite of what you want is exactly what you need.

Why I'm Waiting:
I've been a follower of Fenske's blog for years and because of my huge backlog of books I have to read I haven't gotten around to reading her books yet but I am hoping to rectify that in time for me to be all caught up on reading her books before this one is released.
Not my type of read, but That Night is a realllly awesome cover!! Felt the need to say that, haha.

That Night sounds interesting, it's not usually my type of book but I'm intrigued! And the cover is pretty to look at :)

That Night sounds more interesting to me than Frisky Business. I hope you enjoy them both. Thanks for sharing them.
