"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
Wife-In-Law
By Haywood Smith
Publication Date: September 13
From Amazon:
Neighbors Betsy Callison and Kat Ellis were oil and water when they met 35 years ago. Betsy was a prim, neat freak, Republican wife, and Kat was a wild, irreverent, hippie Democrat. But they soon discover common ground that creates a bond that lasts for decades. Until Betsy's husband leaves her for his secretary, then comes sniffing back around two years later and convinces newly widowed Kat to marry him! Not that Betsy wants him back, but it’s hard to move on when the newlyweds are flaunting their love right across the street. But there’s trouble brewing in Paradise, and no one knows philandering Greg better than his ex-wife Betsy. Can Betsy get involved in her best friend's marriage--even if it means helping her wife-in-law figure out the same man she shared a bed with for 30 years?
What's your "waiting on" pick this week?

Great pick! The title threw me for a second, but then I read the description and it all made sense. Clever. :)
Whoa! This sounds...fun and sad at the same time. LOL Great pick!

I love how the cover artwork fits the summary so well! I can totally see how Betsy would be wavering over 'she loves me, she loves me not' thoughts about her friend.

This one sounds fun. I haven't read anything by Haywood Smith before.

This book kind of reminds me of "Reba," which I love!
Wife-in-law sounds great, I haven't seen it before. Good pick!

This sounds like a fun, but maybe a bit sad read Jill.
Once again you shared a great pick! My TBR List has grown A LOT due to this meme.
This one sounds juicy! great pick!
This books sounds like a hot mess! It does make for an interesting storyline and a very complicated love or out-of-love triangle.
Yikes! I think that story would probably be a little too fraught with emotion for me. I hope you enjoy it, though!
That sounds good and I love the cover!
Wow, everyone is waiting for some good sounding/looking books. Love when new books come out, or I re-discover old books. So much fun.
:)
Sounds unique and fun! Thanks for the introduction to a new read.
This sounds like a fun read with a good amount of depth :)
Hope you enjoy it when it comes out!
That sure sounds like a difficult situation, I wouldn't want to be in Betsy's shoes that's for sure.

I posted "Murder by Mocha" in my first Waiting on Wednesday post! Have you read anything by Cleo Coyle?
Well this sounds interesting! I bet it will have lots of relationship drama. But really, who marrys their best friend's ex-husband? That's just rude.
