On My Wishlist is a Meme created 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. 
A moving and
inspirational novel about the power of faith, family and above all,
love, as a young Amish man must turn to his Englisch neighbor for help
after a devastating tragedy.Grace Connor, a military nurse
formerly stationed in Afghanistan, hopes that moving to a farm in rural
Ohio will help her recover from the ravages of war, and keep her teenage
brother out of trouble.
When Levi Troyer meets Grace, he is at his
most vulnerable. His stepfather has been murdered and his mother wounded
by intruders. Grace saves his mother’s life and Levi is more than
thankful. However, any relationship between them is forbidden by his
faith.
Even before meeting Grace, Levi had begun to question some
of the teachings of his ultra-conservative Amish sect. He has considered
leaving, but knows he will be banned forever from having contact with
his younger siblings and widowed mother—who need him to survive. Grace
is struggling with trying to figure out how to live her life without the
man she has grown to love. Meanwhile, a murderer must be caught. Will
love and justice prevail?
After serving out a year
of hard labor in the salt mines of Endovier for her crimes, 18-year-old
assassin Celaena Sardothien is dragged before the Crown Prince. Prince
Dorian offers her her freedom on one condition: she must act as his
champion in a competition to find a new royal assassin. Her opponents
are men-thieves and assassins and warriors from across the empire, each
sponsored by a member of the king's council. If she beats her opponents
in a series of eliminations, she'll serve the kingdom for three years
and then be granted her freedom.
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.
