Waiting on Wednesday: Love, Lies & Spies

This is a weekly meme hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine.  "Waiting on Wednesday" spotlights upcoming releases that I'm eagerly anticipating.

Love, Lies & Spies by Cindy Anstey
Pub. Date: April 19, 2016



Goodreads says, "Juliana Telford is not your average nineteenth-century young lady. She’s much more interested in researching ladybugs than marriage, fashionable dresses, or dances. So when her father sends her to London for a season, she’s determined not to form any attachments. Instead, she plans to secretly publish their research. Spencer Northam is not the average young gentleman of leisure he appears. He is actually a spy for the War Office, and is more focused on acing his first mission than meeting eligible ladies. Fortunately, Juliana feels the same, and they agree to pretend to fall for each other. Spencer can finally focus, until he is tasked with observing Juliana’s traveling companions . . . and Juliana herself."
I love the sound of this one and the setting of the 19th century. Plus, how cute is this cover??

    This book has my name all over it! I hadn't heard of it before but it sounds perfect. I love unconventional historical fiction characters. Kind of reminds me of A School for Unusual Girls. Great pick!

      I'm glad you like the sound of it, Christina! (I still haven't read A School for Unusual Girls...that one sound good as well.) Thanks for visiting.

    This is a great pick! Love the cover art with all the locks and keys. I didn't know about this one, so I'm happy to add it to my list.

    I'm definitely waiting on this one too Christina! Normally a black and white design wouldn't really jump out at me, I gravitate toward color in my book covers, but this is just so adorable I can't even deal with it. Love all those keys and the woman running after the carriage!

    Love, Lies and Spies is Nancy Drew and Jane Austen all in one! Mysteries, love interests, and deceptions, plus the ever-present propriety all make up this tale set during the Napoleonic Wars. A great read.
