Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. It allows bloggers to feature pre-publication books that they are eagerly anticipating! Here's what I'm waiting on this week...This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
Here Burns My Candle by Liz Curtis Higgs scheduled to release on 4/13/2010
A mother who cannot face her future. A daughter who cannot escape her past.
Edinburgh 1745
Dowager Lady Marjory Kerr, a widow of substantial means, has two passions in life: maintaining her place in society and coddling her two grown sons. Lady Elisabeth Kerr, wife of the elder son, harbors a dark family secret, buried long ago in distant Aberdeenshire. When tragedy strikes, Janet Kerr, wife of the younger son, finds the ties binding her to Marjory and Elisabeth slowly unraveling.
A timeless tale of loss and redemption, flickering against the vivid backdrop of eighteenth-century Edinburgh, Here Burns My Candle reveals the many flaws of human nature and the bright hope of divine providence.
Wow! The cover is beautiful! :)

This sounds wonderful and will definitely be going on my list.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for this book either!!!! It looks sooooo good, the cover is awesome and Liz is a great author!
ReplyDeleteAll her covers are just gorgeous, IMO. I haven't read her Lowlands of Scotland series (think that's what it's called?), but I would like to before this one is released. She's also written 2 contemporary novels that I really liked called Mixed Signals and Bookends.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a 'can't put it down' novel!
