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: Lights Out meets Butcher & Blackbird in Dead Lift, a serial killer romcom from beloved author Clio Evans.
Murdering a man isn't hard. Getting rid of the body, though? That’s another story.
Forensic scientist Shelby has a simple plan. Get justice for her sister, kill the men who murdered her, and (hopefully) get away with it. But when a hot himbo with a man bun catches Shelby in the act—her simple plan becomes a lot more complicated.
With her pink hazmat suit and butcher knife, Shelby is the most alluring woman Brad has ever met. He’s in danger, but he’s never felt more alive. He needs to be in her life, even if it means risking his.
Brad offers to be her henchman. Shelby grudgingly decides to spare his life. What could possibly go wrong?
It turns out everything.
Will Shelby finally get the justice she’s sacrificed her future for? Or will falling for her hot himbo henchman ruin it all?
Why am I waiting on this book? It's really an absurd way for a couple to meet. The pink hazmat suit is funny. It's going to entail a sizable amount of suspension of disbelief, but it's meant to be entertainment not a how to or how not to book. I want to know if she gets away with it and just what goes wrong. And while it comes out in January 2027, I expect it will find it's way into a few beach bags come summer.
What book are you waiting on? 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!
