Waiting on Wednesday #207: The Beautiful Pretender

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event that spotlights upcoming releases that we're
eagerly anticipating.

This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:

The Beautiful Pretender by Melanie Dickerson
Thomas Nelson-May 17, 2016

About the Book
After inheriting his title from his brother, the margrave has two weeks to find a noble bride. What will happen when he learns he has fallen for a lovely servant girl in disguise?
The Margrave of Thornbeck has to find a bride, fast. He invites ten noble born ladies who meet the king’s approval to be his guests at Thornbeck Castle for two weeks, a time to test these ladies and reveal their true character.
Avelina has only two instructions: keep her true identity a secret and make sure the margrave doesn’t select her as his bride. Since the latter seems unlikely, she concentrates on not getting caught. No one must know she is merely a maidservant, sent by the Earl of Plimmwald to stand in for his daughter, Dorothea.
Despite Avelina’s best attempts at diverting attention from herself, the margrave has taken notice. And try as she might, she can’t deny her own growing feelings. But something else is afoot in the castle. Something sinister that could have far worse—far deadlier—consequences

Why I Want It
I love Melanie's books, and this one sounds like it will be really good!

I feel like such a weirdo because I own like 5 of Melanie's books yet still haven't read a single one. They always sound so great so I buy them and then get distracted with something else. You may just give me the oomph to finally pick one up!
Thanks for sharing!
