Can't Wait Wednesday/Waiting on Wednesday #476: Witch of Wild Things by Raquel Vasquez Gilliland

 

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that had been hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine where we spotlighted upcoming releases we are eagerly anticipating. I'm now linking up with Can't Wait Wednesday hosted over at Wishful Endings.

From the publisher: Legend goes that long ago a Flores woman offended the old gods, and their family was cursed as a result. Now, every woman born to the family has a touch of magic.
 
Sage Flores has been running from her family—and their “gifts”—ever since her younger sister Sky died. Eight years later, Sage reluctantly returns to her hometown. Like slipping into an old, comforting sweater, Sage takes back her job at Cranberry Rose Company and uses her ability to communicate with plants to discover unusual heritage specimens in the surrounding lands.

What should be a simple task is complicated by her partner in botany sleuthing: Tennessee Reyes. He broke her heart in high school, and she never fully recovered. Working together is reminding her of all their past tender, genuine moments—and new feelings for this mature sexy man are starting to take root in her heart.

With rare plants to find, a dead sister who keeps bringing her coffee, and another sister whose anger fills the sky with lightning, Sage doesn’t have time for romance. But being with Tenn is like standing in the middle of a field on the cusp of a summer thunderstorm—supercharged and inevitable.

Witch of Wild Things by Raquel Vasquez Gilliland is expected out September 12th, 2023 from Berkley.

Why am I waiting on this book? I like books with magical realism. I like the idea that the sisters all have different gifts. I wonder how a ghost is bringing Sage coffee. And I wonder where the romance plot will go and how it will affect and be affected  by the magic. 

What book are you waiting on this week? Share it or a link in the comments so we can check it out and maybe add it to our TBR lists. Thanks for coming by and Happy Reading!

  1. I love witchy books. I am currently reading a book where one ghost makes tea all the time and one bites everyone. So I guess coffee is not out of the question.

    1. I like witchy books too. That's interesting about the ghosts in the book you're reading. I guess coffee isn't out of the question at all.
