Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. These are ten books I’m excited about that release before the end of the year, but not all the books I can’t wait to read! Two other highly anticipated reads that release this year haven’t been formally revealed (cover and/or synopsis), so I won’t be stealing their thunder here! But do look for Ronie Kendig’s Brand of Light and Susan May Warren’s Ford later in the year. I’ve read the former and it is AMAZING!
I was planning on this list being books I was yet to read, but how could I go past Ronie Kendig’s [easyazon_link identifier=”B07NDNXFRL” locale=”US” tag=”relzrevi-20″]Storm Rising[/easyazon_link]? It’s a brilliant story in every aspect. It’s becoming a thing in Christian romantic suspense to include characters who are or have been in the military, but I can tell you in my experience, NO ONE writes military and paramilitary characters with the same knowledge, insight, sensitivity, and authenticity as Ronie Kendig. And her action scenes are something to behold! Be sure to add her new series to your wishlists!

What books are you looking forward to reading in the second half of this year?











OMIGOSH! REL!! You humble me. THANK YOU for your generous words and praise.
I’ve already read SYNAPSE and really enjoyed it. I’m looking forward to Gryphon Heist! And I just love The Spice King’s cover–I might actually give it a go, tough I don’t typically read in that genre.
Have read the Mitchell and the Ferguson—both fantastic!
I hadn’t heard of any of these books. It’s always kind of neat when that happens in a TTT post. I hope you enjoy all of these titles.
My TTT.
Anything and EVERY THING coming down the pike from Ronie Kendig or Tamara Leigh is always on my list of ‘most anticipated’. Here’s a few I’m looking forward to:
* Firestorm – Nancy Mehl
* The Killing Tide – Dani Pettrey
* Finding Lady Enderly – Joanna Davidson Politano
* Until the Mountains Fall – Connilyn Cossette
* Diamond in the Rough – Jen Turano
Fabulous list, as always! Thanks for helping me add amazing titles to my wish list and library hold list. :o)
As the Light Fades, Until the Mountain Falls, The Killing Tide
Love these covers! We have some exciting reading ahead!
I am SO excited about Melissa’s book. I love that there is more rom-coms coming in this market, and I’m here for it. Also curious about Tari’s too. 🙂
Aw thanks, Rissi!!! And I’m right there with ya! The world needs more You’ve Got Mailish rom coms! 🙂
Several good ones on your list! The ones that jump out the most are As the Light Fades (loved CW’s last release!) and The Words Between Us (Erin’s debut was very good). It’s been a while since I’ve commented…VERY busy 2019 but things are starting to normalize…sort of.
Staci » Lovely to have you back, Staci – life is busy, isn’t it? I’m with you on Cathy and Erin’s novels!
Woohoo! Fun to be on this list with so many other great books!!
