For this Waiting on Wednesday, I picked Wild Eyes by Elsie Silver.
Release Date: March 1, 2024
Book Summary:
But when Tabitha's nephew's guardianship is contested, she decides she'll do whatever it takes to keep him in Rose Hill. Even if it means marrying the enemy.
Rhys Dupris.
A man who is secretive, broody, and completely infuriating. A man whose work takes him away for weeks on end and brings him back covered in mysterious bruises―ones he won't talk about. In fact, Tabitha and Rhys barely talk at all.
Which would be fine, except when he's not talking, he's staring. And the way he looks at her is borderline indecent.
The tension between them has always been palpable. But living under the same roof is a dangerous temptation.
My thoughts:
Elsie Silver’s Wild Eyes was such a pleasant surprise for me as a contemporary romance—and it was laugh-out-loud funny to boot! While I was stuck cleaning my house this summer, I got to live vicariously through the plot, including trying to take a selfie with a bear (hilarious, right?).
After all the fun I had listening to the previous installment of the Rose Hill series, I’m so excited to see what’s next. Plus, I’m an absolute sucker for tropes like marriage of convenience!
