Can't Wait Wednesday/Waiting on Wednesday #619: Hallowed Bones by Lucy Smoke

 

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: The first in the Sons of Salem series— a seductive, dark why-choose romance filled with cursed bloodlines, secret societies, and a powerful heroine destined to save the coven. With gorgeous and haunting printed edges!

Four men. One woman. Five families accused of witchcraft. A dark desire they all share.

I was warned to stay away from the Sons of Salem. Not because they’re monsters—but because they’re broken enough to recognize one. 

Ezra Bishop. 
Cameron Goode. 
Lyall Corey. 
Reyes Scott. 

And me—Haven Wardwell. 

Legacies. Witches. Something far worse than myths. 

Now that I’m here, there’s no telling what the Gods will ask for in return.

Ghosts haunt the corridors of Ipswich College, and if I’m not careful, I might just become one of them.

Hallowed Bones by Lucy Smoke is due out October 6, 2026 from St. Martin's Griffin. It's the first in the Sons of Salem series.

Why am I waiting on this book? I enjoy books set in the Salem area as well as witchy books. It's also got cursed bloodlines, secret societies, and a strong female lead. All of which are a plus.

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!
