Waiting on Wednesday

"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly meme created by Jill at Breaking the Spine. A spin-off of the meme called "Can't Wait Wednesday" is now hosted at Wishful Endings. It lets us all gush about what soon-to-be released books we are jumping-up-and-down excited for.

The history books say I died.

They don’t know the half of it.

Anastasia “Nastya” Romanov was given a single mission: to smuggle an ancient spell into her suitcase on her way to exile in Siberia. It might be her family’s only salvation. But the leader of the Bolshevik army is after them . . . and he’s hunted Romanov before.

Nastya’s only chances of survival are to either release the spell, and deal with the consequences, or enlist help from Zash, the handsome soldier who doesn’t act like the average Bolshevik. Nastya’s never dabbled in magic before, but it doesn’t frighten her as much as her growing attraction for Zash. She likes him. She thinks he might even like her . . .

That is, until she’s on one side of a firing squad . . . and he’s on the other.
 

My thoughts:  So, this quickly became on of my most anticipated books of  2019 the second I heard about it!!  I loved this author's magical twist on the historical legacy of Guy Fawkes so  I can't wait to see this fantastic spin on the Romanovs and the lost princess Anastasia. It's such a fascinating story to begin with---add in a little magic and spells and a dangerous chase? I am SOOO ready for this adventure!


What book are you eagerly anticipating this week?
