Here is my Tenth Edition of Waiting on Wednesday! This is something I decided to do only every other Wednesday to make room for my new feature Whatcha Think About Wednesday. Because of this, I have decided to give each WOW a theme and to show you at least two books.
Waiting On Wednesday: Not-So-Nice-Guy-in-May Edition
Tonight was so much worse than anything before it.
Tonight he didn't stop after the first slap.
At the beginning of senior year, Ann was a smiling, straight-A student and track star with friends and a future. Then she met a haunted young man named Connor. Only she can heal his emotional scars; only he could make her feel so loved-and needed. Ann can't recall the pivotal moment it all changed, when she surrendered everything to be with him, but by graduation, her life has become a dangerous high wire act. Just one mistake could trigger Connor's rage, a senseless storm of cruel words and violence damaging everything-and everyone-in its path.
This evocative slideshow of flashbacks reveals a heartbreaking story of love gone terribly wrong.

When Alex falls for the charming new boy at school, Cole, a handsome, funny, sports star who adores her, she can't believe she's finally found her soul mate-someone who truly understands her and loves her for who she really is.
At first, Alex is blissfully happy. Sure, Cole seems a little jealous of her relationship with her best friends, Zack and Bethany, but what guy would want his girlfriend spending all of her time with another boy? But as the months pass, Alex can no longer ignore Cole's small put-downs, pinches, or increasingly violent threats. As Alex struggles to come to terms with the sweet boyfriend she fell in love with and the boyfriend whose "love" she no longer recognizes, she is forced to choose - between her "true love" and herself.

Bitter End is on my TBR list! Though I have to say I'm wondering if I should read it I tend have trouble watching and reading about abusive relationships but it sounds like it'd be a good read.

But I Love Him has been on my TBR list & now I am adding Bitter End. Your WoW pick for this week is very similar to mine! These books are hard to read, for the subject matter, but they're so so good. I love books that make you think!
