Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly feature hosted at Breaking The Spine that spotlights those can't-wait-to-get-my-hands-on-them books that we are eagerly awaiting!
This week I'm gonna be having two books sharing the spotlight, one a novella, one a full size book and both part of the same series! They are Bitter Sweet Love & White Hot Kiss by Jennifer L Armentrout!
Goodreads summary:
"In a sizzling prequel novella to her new series THE DARK ELEMENTS, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout draws readers into the extraordinary, irresistible world of Wardens and demons.
Dez wasn't just Jasmine's crush. A gargoyle Warden like Jas, he helped her come to terms with her destiny—fending off demons and maintaining balance between good and evil. He was her everything...right until the moment he disappeared without a trace. It didn't help that Jas's father had just announced that she and Dez would one day be mated. Hard not to take that personally.
And now he's back, three years older, ten times hotter, ready to pick up exactly where they left off. But Jas isn't taking that risk again. Dez has seven days to meet all her conditions and earn back her trust. Seven days filled with terrifying danger and sweet temptation. Seven days to win her heart—or shatter it all over again..."
Goodreads summary:
"One kiss could be the last.
Seventeen-year-old Layla just wants to be normal. But with a kiss that kills anything with a soul, she's anything but normal. Half demon, half gargoyle, Layla has abilities no one else possesses.
Raised among the Wardens—a race of gargoyles tasked with hunting demons and keeping humanity safe—Layla tries to fit in, but that means hiding her own dark side from those she loves the most. Especially Zayne, the swoon-worthy, incredibly gorgeous and completely off-limits Warden she's crushed on since forever.
Then she meets Roth—a tattooed, sinfully hot demon who claims to know all her secrets. Layla knows she should stay away, but she's not sure she wants to—especially when that whole no-kissing thing isn't an issue, considering Roth has no soul.
But when Layla discovers she's the reason for the violent demon uprising, trusting Roth could not only ruin her chances with Zayne…it could brand her a traitor to her family. Worse yet, it could become a one-way ticket to the end of the world."
Why am I eagerly awaiting both Bitter Sweet Love & White Hot Kiss? Well, I really enjoy the way Jennifer L Armentrout writes her romance and the humour she always has in her books, and these two are about gargoyles! I love paranormal stuff and there's barely any books out there with gargoyles! (The only other book/series that comes to mind are the ParaWars series by Caitlin Greer!).
What are you all (im)patiently awaiting this week?

Great picks :D I hope you will end up loving both books sweetie. <3
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Carina! The excerpt I read from one of them I loved, so I'm hoping I will! =D
DeleteI'm excited for White Hot Kiss! I just read my first J.Lynn book recently and it was so readable! I hadn't heard about Bitter Sweet Love before - noted! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm quite excited for both, read the excerpt for Bitter Sweet Love and it was quite promising!
DeleteI'm super excited for both of these as well! I love JLA's books so I can't wait to see what this series is like.
ReplyDeleteGreat picks, Pili! :)
Thanks Samantha! Can't wait!! =D
DeleteAhhh, this series! I got an ARC of White Hot Kiss about a month ago, and just last week, Harlequin sent me an eARC of Bitter Sweet Love. I feel honored. If I can, I shall see what I can do about letting bloggers borrow my ARC! But if not, it's only a few months away :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog!
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Bitter Sweet Love comes out in a matter of days, so can't wait!
DeleteI was pretty bummed when White Hot Kiss' release date was postponed till Feb...
Thank you, Alyssa!
I only found out about this series last week, but I'm not entirely sure I'll pick it up when the time comes. I have such a weird relationship with her books, perhaps it's best to finish the ones I've started and stop.
ReplyDeleteWe'll see. In the end, I probably won't be able to resist.
They are sort of addicting, aren't they? Even when they are not as good I end up devouring them!
