"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
This week I am eagerly anticipating Stripped by Jasinda Wilder, Manic by J.A. Huss, and Ricochet by Krista & Becca Ritchie :D!
Title: Stripped
Author: Jasinda Wilder
Series: NA
Expected publication Date: August 16, 2013
Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance
Description from Goodreads:
So how did I get myself
into this situation, you ask? Simple: desperation. When you're faced
with being homeless and hungry or taking off your clothes for money, the
choice is easier than you'd imagine. That doesn't make it easy, though.
Oh no. I hate it, in fact. There's nothing I'd like more than to quit
and never go into another bar again, never hear the techno beat pulsing
in my ears again, never feel the lecherous gazes of horny men again.
Then, one day, I meet a man. He's in my club, front and center. He watches me do my routine, and his gaze is full of hunger. Not the kind of desire I'm used to though. It's something different. Something hotter, deeper, and more possessive. I know who he is; of course I do. Everyone knows who Dawson Kellor is. He's People Magazine's Sexiest Man alive. He's the hottest actor in Hollywood. He's the man hand-picked for the role of Rhett Butler in the long-awaited remake of Gone With the Wind.
He's the kind of man who can have any woman in the entire world with a mere crook of his finger. So what's he doing looking at me like he has to have me? And how do I resist him when he looks at me with those intoxicating, changeable, quicksilver eyes?
I'm a virgin, and he's an American icon of male sexuality. I'm a stripper, and he's a man used to getting anything and everything he wants. And he wants me. I know I should say no, I know he's the worst kind of player…but what my mind knows, my body and my heart may not.
And then things get complicated.

I heard about Stripped from a bunch of bloggers. So I read the blurb and it caught my interest. But once Jasinda Wilder shared a teaser on her blog, I just felt the need to have this book in my hands :D!
