On My Wishlist is a Meme hosted by Book Chick City.
On
My Wishlist is a weekly meme that allows us to share the books we
haven't bought yet but are waiting to be bought and devoured. If you are
anything like me then your wishlist is getting longer by the day! If
you would like to take part and have your own 'On My Wishlist' post then
you can more info here. (This post was inspired by the fab In My Mailbox by Kristi at The Story Siren)
My
on My Wishlist includes books that are older and already out, or brand
new. Today I am bringing you two books that I am dying to read and get
for my book shelves.
So
lets see what we have here this week.. I well update when I get these
books. There are so many that I decided to narrow it sown to just two
this week.! 
The Pirate Daughter's Promise by Molly Evangeline
Skylar McHenry knew the
love of her parents and a doting grandfather until her sixth year was
marked by the tragic loss of her mother. When her father's secret past
as a pirate came to light, father and daughter fled to a life at sea.
Although Daniel McHenry's life had changed and he now robbed pirates to
return the stolen goods to their rightful owners, his ship was captured
by authorities, and he was hung for piracy.
Skye grew up in an orphanage, little more than a servant and shunned by everyone around her. Now a young woman, each day Skye faces is marked by some new struggle. Her only hope has been to rely on her heavenly Father's care and comfort, and the solace of her best friend Will, who has become more than dear to her.
Just when an unexpected encounter with her grandfather gives Skye a small glimmer of hope that things might change in her favor, her world is shattered. She is awakened in the night by cannon blasts. Pirates storm the orphanage, drag her away into the night, and force her aboard their ship. The cruel captain's intentions are clear. He will extract from her, through any means necessary, the location of the hidden treasure rewarded to Daniel by those whose belongings he had returned. For Skye to divulge the location would mean breaking the last promise she made to her father. She's certain she never will, but what happens when the lives of those dearest to her are at stake?
The Pirate Daughter's Promise is full of daring high seas adventure; sweet, wholesome romance; surprising discoveries; unlikely new friends; and the rewards of trusting in God even when life seems impossible.
Author Molly Evangeline is a recent home school graduatewho loves to journal, sew historical costumes, and go horseback riding and hiking in the woods along the river in Wisconsin where she lives with her parents and two younger brothers. She has enjoyed writing since she was eight years old.

Celaena finds her training sessions with the captain of the guard, Westfall, challenging and exhilirating. But she's bored stiff by court life. Things get a little more interesting when the prince starts to show interest in her... but it's the gruff Captain Westfall who seems to understand her best.
Then one of the other contestants turns up dead... quickly followed by another.
Can Celaena figure out who the killer is before she becomes a victim? As the young assassin investigates, her search leads her to discover a greater destiny than she could possibly have imagined.
