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.)
Synopsis from Goodreads:Chef Luca Alessi’s life is barely recognizable these days. He used to spend his days in the kitchen creating cutting-edge cuisine. Now he’s trying to keep his family's restaurant and legacy alive. It doesn't help that his father was keeping secrets before he passed. On the relationship front, his ex, Colin, assured him that their divorce would be simple. And now? Not so much. So who could blame Luca for wanting to avoid any entanglements? He's not ashamed to hire someone for a couple hours of fun. But this new guy is hard to keep at arm's length.
When life lands Ellis Day on the streets—again—he’s not about to wallow in self-pity. He's done it before, he can do it again. And if that involves selling something he previously considered unsellable, then that's just what he'll do. He’s not all that experienced working in the sex industry, but it should be easy enough. Get in, get paid, get out. But then there's Luca. And suddenly the rules don't apply.
When Luca discovers Ellis's living situation, things get more complicated still. Luca offers him a job and a place to live. Of course, their new arrangement means nothing else can happen between them—at least in Luca’s eyes. He’s determined to be a friend to Ellis…to give him everything he needs. Ellis is determined to show him that the only thing he needs is Luca.
This author wrote one of my favorite paranormal series, The Spectral Files. So I've added this book to my tbr even though it is a contemporary, AND it was a surprise release. What the heck?
(My daughter returned from Australia only to purchase tickets to go back again in a month. Holy crap. She's really struggling because she swore she would never go through this type of shit for a BOY... yet here she is jumping through hoops and spending tons of money to be with him. I know they're trying to figure out how to be together permanently, but it's just a difficult time. And in the middle of this crisis, my 28 year old son decides to move out and live with his fiance and her parents until the wedding in December. Which, okay, he was only home 2 or 3 nights a week anyways, but this is harder than I thought it would be.)
What are you waiting on this week?
Oh wow! Wanting to read a contemporary read from a beloved paranormal author is a new concept to me! Lol. I'm not a contemporary reader at all, but I can handle thrillers...so I guess that's sorta close to contemporaries! Hope you enjoy this one!
