Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Morning Swooners :-)

This week my "can't-wait-to-read" pre-publication selections are:

Hold Me Like a Breath (Once Upon a Crime Family #1) by Tiffany Schmidt

Expected release date: May 19, 2015

Purchase: Amazon / Barnes and Noble

Summary from Goodreads:

Penelope Landlow has grown up with the knowledge that almost anything can be bought or sold-including body parts. She's the daughter of one of the three crime families that control the black market for organ transplants.

Penelope’s surrounded by all the suffocating privilege and protection her family can provide, but they can’t protect her from the autoimmune disorder that causes her to bruise easily.

And in her family’s line of work no one can be safe forever.

All Penelope has ever wanted is freedom and independence. But when she's caught in the crossfire as rival families scramble for prominence, she learns that her wishes come with casualties, that betrayal hurts worse than bruises, that love is a risk worth taking…and maybe she's not as fragile as everyone thinks.

Why I'm waiting:

This book sounds amazing! I love mob type stories and learning that she has an autoimmune disorder just cranks it up. Just another thing her family cant protect her from. I really think the main character is going to prove to be so much more than just sick little girl. I just LOVE strong female MC's!

What are you anxiously waiting for?
