Waiting on Wednesday: Magnolia by Kristi Cook {47}

Title: Magnolia
Author: Kristi Cook
Release date: August 5, 2014

In Magnolia Branch, Mississippi, the Cafferty and Marsden families are southern royalty. Neighbors since the Civil War, the families have shared vacations, holidays, backyard barbecues, and the overwhelming desire to unite their two clans by marriage. So when a baby boy and girl were born to the families at the same time, the perfect opportunity seemed to have finally arrived.

Jemma Cafferty and Ryder Marsden have no intention of giving in to their parents’ wishes. They’re only seventeen, for goodness’ sake, not to mention that one little problem: They hate each other! Jemma can’t stand Ryder’s nauseating golden-boy persona, and Ryder would like nothing better than to pretend stubborn Jemma doesn’t exist.

But when a violent storm ravages Magnolia Branch, it unearths Jemma’s and Ryder’s true feelings for each other as the two discover that the line between love and hate may be thin enough to risk crossing over.

MISSISSIPPAYYYYYYYYYY. If you don't know, I'm a Mississippi girl, born and raised. I go to school in Alabama, but I love where I'm from. It's a beautiful place and I definitely don't see a lot of books set there--so I read any and all that I can get my hands on. :) It doesn't hurt that this sounds so cute!

So what are you guys waiting on this week? :)
