Waiting on Wednesday #69

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by, Breaking the Spine, which spotlights upcoming releases we can't wait to get our hands on! 

Title: How Zoe Made Her Dreams (Mostly) Come True
Author: Sarah Strohmeyer
Release Date: April 23rd,  2013
Publisher: Balzer & Bray

When cousins Zoe and Jess land summer internships at the Fairyland Kingdom theme park, they are sure they've hit the jackpot. With perks like hot Abercrombie-like Prince Charmings and a chance to win the coveted $25,000 Dream & Do grant, what more could a girl want? 

Once Zoe arrives, however, she's assigned to serve "The Queen"-Fairyland's boss from hell. From spoon-feeding her evil lapdog caviar, to fetching midnight sleeping tonics, Zoe fears she might not have what it takes to survive the summer, much less win the money. 

Soon backstabbing interns, a runaway Cinderella, and cutthroat competition make Zoe's job more like a nightmare than a fairy tale. What will happen when Zoe is forced to choose between serving The Queen and saving the prince of her dreams?

Last year I loved Sarah Strohmeyer's book, Smart Girls Get What They Want.  I'm looking forward to her new release because it sounds like such a fun and entertaining summer read.  With romance, relatable characters and just enough fluff mixed together, any contemporary lover will want to add her books to their wishlist!


What awesome title are you waiting for this Wednesday?

  10. Do we know if this is the final cover? I picked up an ARC of this and it looks a lot like the cover to Smart Girls Get What They Want. Same concept, but in yellow. I actually like this cover so much more. I need to read the ARC already.

    1. I've seen the ARC cover and I believe that this one is the final one. While I like the cover for Smart Girls, I'm glad that the cover for this book isn't similar.

  11. I also loved Smart Girls Get What they Want, so this will probably be a good book too.

    I'm currently hosting a giveaway on my blog, Breath of Books, of Emily Murdoch's If You Find Me. Stop by if you're interested.
