Waiting On Wednesday (556) Fish in a Barrel (Fish Out of Water #7) by Amy Lane

Expected publication July 26, 2022
Genre: M/M, Romance


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings
that spotlights upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating.
(WoW was previously hosted by Breaking The Spine.)

This my favorite day of the week because I love sharing and discovering new books.

Synopsis from Goodreads:

Jackson and Ellery face their toughest case yet—against the criminal justice system itself.

Jackson Rivers and Ellery Cramer have worked difficult jobs before, but usually it’s getting the facts that’s the problem. For their newest client, the trouble isn’t finding the truth—it’s corruption at the highest levels of the justice system. It isn’t enough to find the actual perpetrator and unveil a heartless plot—not when the DA is the bad guy and he’s using cops as his goons. Keeping their vulnerable client alive and out of jail takes blood, sweat, and tears.

When one of their major antagonists is killed and the DA tries to pin the death on Jackson, he’ll need every ounce of luck and all his resources to clear his name—and to find the perpetrator before the DA can use the murder to further his own agenda. They soon find that it’s easier to spot an honest man in a field of thieves than it is to shoot fish in a barrel—and both the man and the fish will be lucky to survive….


I love this series. But.... Dear author - please stop injuring your characters. Enough with the near fatal encounters in every book. And I'd like to see Jackson and Ellery's relationship evolve beyond "being in a relationship". It's been a loooooong time at this stage, so some progress would be great. Thanks!

What are you waiting on this week?

    1. I just want them to NOT have a near death experience for once. They don't have many body parts left that are fully functional. It's crazy. Thanks for stopping by, Jessica!
