**IF YOU HAVE NOT READ DELILAH GREEN DOESN’T CARE BY ASHLEY HERRING BLAKE, AND YOU WANT TO, DO NOT READ THIS SYSNOPSIS!**
An interior designer learns to rebuild her love life from the ground up with zero blueprints in this new romantic comedy by Ashley Herring Blake, author of Delilah Green Doesn’t Care.
For Astrid Parker, failure is unacceptable. Ever since she broke up with her fiancé a year ago, she’s been focused on her career—her friends might say she’s obsessed, but she’s just driven. When Pru Everwood asks her to be the designer for the Everwood Inn’s renovation that will be broadcasted on a popular home improvement show, Innside America, Astrid knows this is the answer to everything that is wrong with her life. It’ll be the perfect distraction from her failed love life, and her perpetually displeased mother might finally give her nod of approval.
However, Astrid never planned on Jordan Everwood, Pru’s granddaughter and lead carpenter for the inn’s renovation, who despises every modern design decision Astrid makes. Jordan is determined to preserve the history of her family’s inn, particularly as the rest of her life is in shambles. When that determination turns into a little light sabotage, ruffling Astrid’s perfect little feathers, the showrunners ask them to play up the tension. But somewhere along the way, their dislike for each other turns into something quite different, and Astrid must decide what success truly means. Is she going to pursue the life that she’s expected to lead, or the one she wants?

Why I’m Waiting: Delilah Green was my first book by Ashley Herring Blake. And although I don’t really care for the person this book is about (I thought she was wrong for what she did at the end of Delilah. You didn’t have to also hurt that person but you did anyway) I knew this would probably be the book that redeemed her? So I guess I have to. Also, can we talk about this cover? Because I thought I loved Delilah’s, but this one is also good. I love the way they’re both polar opposites. So, so good!
What about you? What are you waiting on this week? Do you love this cover? Let me know in the comments!
