Waiting on Wednesday (71)

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. So here's this week's WOW pick:

You all knew this post coming, right? Because of course I would be waiting on the next book in one of my favorite series! After the events in both the last Mercy book and the last Alpha & Omega book, I'm curious to see what happens next in this world. Of course, the Fae are going to play a big role but what I'm dying to know about is how the pack's new member is doing. And I just need more Adam and Mercy in my life. I NEED THIS BOOK IN MY HANDS!!! Also, can we just appreciate how epic and awesome this cover is?
