Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a meme hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings to spotlight upcoming releases we are excited about that we have yet to read.
The book I’m waiting on this week is…
I had no idea actress Meg Tilly is now an author! Solace Island sounds intriguing and original, and it’s the start of a new series, too! I’m excited to be reading this one with some fellow bloggers very soon. Thanks to Berkley for the invitation.
Synopsis from Goodreads:
A contemporary novel with a strong suspense element from Oscar-nominated actress Meg Tilly set on a peaceful island village in the Pacific Northwest.
Dumped on the eve of her wedding and looking for a quiet place to lick her emotional wounds, Maggie Harris joins her sister on Solace Island, where she hopes to recover from the stunning betrayal. At first, Maggie resists Eve’s impassioned argument about relocating permanently so the sisters can open their own local bakery. What she definitely doesn’t need on her road to recovery are Eve’s efforts to fix her up with their mysterious and alluring neighbor, Luke Benson–even if he is incredibly handsome and desirable.
Just as Maggie starts to get comfortable in her new surroundings, a car tries to run her down in the middle of the street. If it weren’t for Luke’s extremely quick reflexes, Maggie could have been killed, leading her to wonder just who exactly Luke Benson really is…
Luke thought he’d left the violence of the high risk security world behind. But he can’t stand by while Maggie’s life is threatened. Luke will do anything to keep her safe–even moving Maggie and her sister into his house with its state-of-the-art security features. But with the secrets between them and an unknown threat stalking her heels, Luke will have to think fast to prove to Maggie that she can trust him with her life–and with her heart. (less)

Thanks, Mary! She’s written several books in the past, but this may be her first fictional novel- I’m not quite sure.

Well, I can’t wait to see what you think! I feel like famous people can just do whatever they want… I always worry about when they write books. Just because they have the money and time to write it… Doesn’t mean their any good at it! 😂😂

So many actors seem to be writing books these days! I’m always worried they’re just trading on their famous names, but actually the couple I’ve read have been really good – hope Meg Tilly turns out to be another one with talent!

Me, too! I hope this book charms me! I’m reading an actor’s memoir right now- In Pieces by Sally Field, and it’s perfectly written, so I have my fingers crossed for this one.
