Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly book meme hosted by Wishful Endings and spotlights books we're excited for but haven't read yet.

This week's Can't-Wait book is The Irresistible Urge to Fall For Your Enemy by Brigitte Knightley. This book comes out in July and I can't wait. Check out this cover, it's gorgeous! The black and pink just make this cover pop! 

Synopsis

The first in a slow burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy duology featuring a scholarly healer and a gentleman assassin, set in an exquisite fantasy world, perfect for fans of The Love Hypothesis and Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries.

Osric Mordaunt, member of the Fyren Order of assassins, is in dire need of healing. Naturally – such is the grim comedy of fate – the only healer who can help is Aurienne Fairhrim, preeminent scientist, bastion of moral good, and member of an enemy Order.

Aurienne is desperate for funding to heal the sick - so desperate that, when Osric bribes her to help him, she accepts, even if she detests him and everything he stands for.

A forced collaboration ensues: the brilliant Woman in STEM is coerced into working with the PhD in Murders, much to Aurienne's disgust. As Osric and Aurienne work together to heal his illness and investigate the mysterious reoccurrence of a deadly pox, they find themselves ardently denying their attraction, which only fuels the heat between them.

I'm waiting for this one because who doesn't love a good enemies to lovers story? This one looks like fun and I love a book that's part of a duology because it means there'll be more to love later.
