Waiting on Wednesday (68)


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine that allows bloggers to share which books we are most anticipating.
This week I am waiting on Lady Thief by A. C. Gaughen (2/11/14):
 
Description on Goodreads:
Scarlet’s true identity has been revealed, but her future is uncertain. Her forced marriage to Lord Gisbourne threatens Robin and Scarlet’s love, and as the royal court descends upon Nottingham for the appointment of a new Sheriff, the people of Nottingham hope that Prince John will appoint their beloved Robin Hood. But Prince John has different plans for Nottingham that revolve around a fateful secret from Scarlet’s past even she isn’t yet aware of. Forced to participate at court alongside her ruthless husband, Scarlet must bide her time and act the part of a noblewoman—a worthy sacrifice if it means helping Robin’s cause and a chance at a future with the man she loves. With a fresh line of intrigue and as much passion as ever, the next chapter in Scarlet’s tale will have readers talking once again.
Why I’m Waiting:
How amazing does this sound? I absolutely loved the first book. I only recently learned that there was to be a book 2 and book 3! I love YA classics retellings. And Gaughen mastered this with the first book. I can’t wait to read more about Scarlet and Robin! And while I love stories that take place at court, I’m hoping to read more about things outside court too! I’m not the biggest fan of the covers of the series, but I don’t really care. The story is just so much fun.
What are you waiting on this week?
