Waiting on Wednesday (15)

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Chain Reaction, by Simone Elkeles

Luis Fuentes is a good boy who doesn't live with the angst that his big brothers, Alex and Carlos, have always lived with. Luis is smart, funny, and has big dreams of becoming an astronaut. But when he falls for the wrong girl, Luis enters a dark world he's never known, and just when he thinks he's got life all figured out, learns some disturbing news about his family that destroys his positive outlook on life. Will that Fuentes bad boy streak come out with a vengeance and lure Luis to live on the edge like his new girlfriend and his own father?

Continuing all the steamy romance of the first two books, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Simone Elkeles gives fans one more satisfying taste of the irresistible Fuentes boys.

Release date: May 24, 2011

I absolutely loved Perfect Chemistry and Rules of Attraction. Still, I was a bit nervous about the plot of this next novel in the series. I was afraid it'd be smexy bad boy meets good girl again, and it would get old. But she apparently knew that would be on our minds because this one sounds completely different. I have no doubt it'll carry that same steam Elkeles has given us in the last two novels, and I can't wait!

What are you waiting for this week?
