Books Waiting To Be Released – December 2016





Halo, jumpa lagi di postingan (bulanan?) saya yang berjudul Book Waiting To Be released. Lagi-lagi saya gagal membuat postingan ini di bulan November. Udah nggak ingat lagi apa alasannya :(

Tapi untung saja, di hari pertama bulan Desember 2016 ini saya langsung teringat akan postingan ini. Jadi sepagian ini saya mendaftar buku-buku yang saya tunggu kehadirannya di bulan ini. Berikut daftar buku incaran saya :)


1.  Someone like You - Lauren Layne (6 December  2016)



Buku ketiga dari seri Oxford karya Lauren Layne ini termasuk salah satu buku yang saya tunggu-tunggu. Karya-karya Lauren Layne sudah cukup banyak yang saya baca dan termasuk ke dalam daftar buku-buku favorit saya. Antara lain adalah Blurred Lines dan I Wish You Were Mine. Jadi nggak kebayang excitednya saya karena buku terbarunya terbit di bulan ini :)


Berikut sinopsisnya:

Lincoln Mathis doesn’t hide his reputation as Manhattan’s ultimate playboy. In fact, he cultivates it. But behind every flirtatious smile, each provocative quip, there’s a secret that Lincoln’s hiding from even his closest friends—a tragedy from his past that holds his heart quietly captive. Lincoln knows what he wants: someone like Daisy Sinclair, the sassy, off-limits bridesmaid he can’t take his eyes off at his best friend’s wedding. He also knows that she’s everything he can never have.

After a devastating divorce, Daisy doesn’t need anyone to warn her off the charming best man at her sister’s wedding. One look at the breathtakingly hot Lincoln Mathis and she knows that he’s exactly the type of man she should avoid. But when Daisy stumbles upon Lincoln’s secret, she realizes there’s more to the charming playboy than meets the eye. And suddenly Daisy and Lincoln find their lives helplessly entwined in a journey that will either heal their damaged souls . . . or destroy them forever.


2. Trophy Wife - Noelle Adams (6 December 2016)



Yang paling saya suka dari karya-karya Noelle Adams adalah kebanyakan buku yang ditulisnya mempunyai plot-plot favorit saya.

Berikut sinopsisnya:
Alison Davies used to just be a trophy wife. Now she’s just flat broke. Thanks to an ironclad prenup, she’s worse off than she was before the day she rushed down the aisle with a wealthy jerk eight years ago. After her steep fall from riches to rags, Alison refuses to shackle herself to any man who treats her like a possession—no matter how good he looks in a pair of well-worn jeans, or how his muscles ripple while he’s carrying her couch.

Underneath his rugged exterior, Rob West is a gentleman. So when he sees his beautiful new neighbor moving in, he’s going to help her out no matter how loudly she protests. In fact, Alison’s determination to go it alone just strengthens his resolve—and his desire to find out what makes her tick. But after one spur-of-the-moment tumble in the sheets, it’s clear that their connection goes way deeper. And that Rob won’t be happy until Alison surrenders to the passion they share.


3. I Will - Lisa Kleypas (13 December 2016)



Karya terbaru dari Lisa Kleypas in imerupakan sebuah novella yang masih berhubungan dengan salah satu seri historical romancenya yaitu, Capital Theatre. Dua buku di seri ini diterbitkan pada tahun 1996 dan 1997. Jadi, lumayan juga rentang waktu antara buku-buku tersebut dengan novella ini. Saya nggak tahu apakah tokoh-tokoh di novella ini punya hubungan langsung atau tidak dengan tokoh-tokoh di dua buku sebelumnya.

Mari kita tunggu saja... :)

Berikut sinopsisnya:
Andrew, Lord Drake, has been cut out of his father’s will because of his dissolute manner of living. To be reinstated, Andrew decides to pretend that he has changed his wicked ways.


As part of his plan, he wants to convince his father that he is courting a respectable woman with the intention of marrying her. The problem is, he doesn’t know any decent women, except for his friend’s spinster sister, Miss Caroline Hargreaves. He blackmails the reluctant Caroline into helping him, and so the charade begins...


4. Kingdom of Sleep - E.K. Johnston (15 December 2016)



 Lihat saja cover buku ini, apa nggak bakal tertarik untuk membacanya? Settingan waktu di buku ini adalah sekitar ribuan tahun setelah buku pertama, A Thousand Nights, yang cover bukunya sangat Arabian Night sekali. Jadi, belum baca buku pertama tetep aja oke kalau mau baca buku ini. A Thousand Nights masuk daftar bacaan saya tahun silam :)

Berikut sinopsisnya:
The world is made safe by a woman...but it is a very big world.

It has been generations since the Storyteller Queen drove the demon out of her husband and saved her country from fire and blood. Her family has prospered beyond the borders of their village, and two new kingdoms have sprouted on either side of the mountains where the demons are kept prisoner by bright iron, and by the creatures the Storyteller Queen made to keep them contained.

But the prison is crumbling. Through years of careful manipulation, a demon has regained her power. She has made one kingdom strong and brought the other to its knees, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. When a princess is born, the demon is ready with the final blow: a curse that will cost the princess her very soul, or force her to destroy her own people to save her life.

The threads of magic are tightly spun, binding princess and exiled spinners into a desperate plot to break the curse before the demon can become a queen of men. But the web of power is dangerously tangled--and they may not see the true pattern until it is unspooled.


5.  One Fell Sweep - Ilona Andrews (20 December 2016)



Awww... paling sukaaa ama buku yang ini....!

Lho, kan baru mau terbit bulan ini, kok udah baca aja?

Yep, seri Innkeeper Chronicles karya Ilona Andrews dapat di baca di blog mereka. Gratis!

Nah, gimana nggak cinta ama Ilona Andrews. Service buat pembacanya itu TOP banget! Untuk buku ketiga dari seri Innkeeper Chronicles ini Ilona Andrews memposting satu bab tiap minggunya sampai buku ini tamat. Dan saya pun tiap minggu dengan setia me-refresh page mereka agar bisa membaca update terbaru buku ini. Nah, sekarang ceritanya udah tamat dan akan diterbitkan dalam bentuk buku. Saya sangat tidak sabar untuk segera membaca ulang buku ini.

Berikut sinopsisnya:
Gertrude Hunt, the nicest Bed and Breakfast in Red Deer, Texas, is glad to have you. We cater to particular kind of guests, the ones most people don’t know about. The older lady sipping her Mello Yello is called Caldenia, although she prefers Your Grace. She has a sizable bounty on her head, so if you hear kinetic or laser fire, try not to stand close to the target. Our chef is a Quillonian. The claws are a little unsettling, but he is a consummate professional and truly is the best chef in the Galaxy. If you see a dark shadow in the orchard late at night, don’t worry. Someone is patrolling the grounds. Do beware of our dog.

Your safety and comfort is our first priority. The inn and your host, Dina Demille, will defend you at all costs. We ask only that you mind other guests and conduct yourself in a polite manner.

6.  Wyoming Brave - Diana Palmer (27 December 2016)


Kalau  udah Diana Palmer saya nggak perlu ngomong apa-apa lagi. Baca aja deh! :)
 
Berikut sinopsisnya:

The Wyoming men are back! In their quest for true love on the range, are these ranchers bold enough to open their hearts to the women under their protection?

Ren Colter may own an enormous ranch in Wyoming, but he scorns his wealth. He's closed himself off since his fiancée left him years ago, so he's shocked when he allows Meredith Grayling to stay with him. He tells himself it's only to protect the blonde beauty from a stalker, but Ren's alpha instincts soon kick in.

The last thing Merrie wants is a devastatingly handsome man like Ren lurking around her. He's too experienced, too appealing for her already shot nerves. What she needs is just to get away from it all: the man haunting her waking dreams and the one hunting her like an animal. But no woman escapes this Colter cowboy!


7.  After the Wedding - Courtney Milan (December 2016)


Courtney Milan merupakan salah satu penulis historical romance yang buku-bukunya masuk ke dalam daftar wajib  baca buat saya. Dan biasanya cover-cover novelnya sangat cantik yang bikin makin semangat buat membacanya. Sudah agak lama sejak terakhir saya membaca buku karyanya, karena selama dua tahun terakhir ini selera saya akan historical romance agak surut :(

(Baca review A Kiss For Midnight Winter dan Unlocked karya Courtney Milan di blog ini)

Berikut sinopsisnya:
Adrian Hunter has concealed his identity and posed as a servant to assist his powerful uncle. He’s on the verge of obtaining the information he needs when circumstances spiral out of his control. He’s caught alone with a woman he scarcely knows. When they’re discovered in this compromising circumstance, he’s forced to marry her at gunpoint. Luckily, his uncle should be able to obtain an annulment. All Adrian has to do is complete his mission…and not consummate the marriage, no matter how enticing the bride may be.

Lady Camilla Worth has never expected much out of life—not since her father was convicted of treason and she was passed from family to family. A marriage, no matter how unfortunate the circumstances under which it was contracted, should mean stability. It’s unfortunate that her groom doesn’t agree. But Camilla has made the best of worse circumstances. She is determined to make her marriage work. All she has to do is seduce her reluctant husband.


Nah, itulah buku-buku yang saya tunggu kehadirannya di bulan Desember ini. Apa ada yang termasuk kedalam daftarmu juga? :)
