I'm really excited to start reading them!

Her concerns are those of any teenager—until Kieran Alden proposes to her. The handsome captain-to-be has everything Waverly could ever want in a husband, and with the pressure to start having children, everyone is sure he's the best choice. Except for Waverly, who wants more from life than marriage—and is secretly intrigued by the shy, darkly brilliant Seth.

Also, as I'm sure you all know, as a book-lover, you love buying books, right? Well, I have a wishlist of about 125 books on that I really want to buy/read, but unfortunately I'm not a millionaire. So I was really excited when I found out my library has a website and I could check what books all the libraries had where I live and I could order them, so there's about 55 that I'm going to be ordering to read! :) Not all at one time though! But that's super exciting! :) Leave me a link to your post! :)
