Can't-Wait Wednesday: My Contrary Mary

Can't-Wait Wednesday is hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings and helps us spotlight upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating!
 
Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows
Expected publication date: June 22, 2021
Welcome to Renaissance France, a place of poison and plots, of beauties and beasts, of mice and . . . queens?⠀

Mary is the queen of Scotland and the jewel of the French court. Except when she's a mouse. Yes, reader, Mary is an Eðian (shapeshifter) in a kingdom where Verities rule. It's a secret that could cost her a head—or a tail.⠀

Luckily, Mary has a confidant in her betrothed, Francis. But after the king meets a suspicious end, things at the gilded court take a treacherous turn. Thrust onto the throne, Mary and Francis are forced to navigate a viper's nest of conspiracies, traps, and treason. And if Mary's secret is revealed, heads are bound to roll. - from Goodreads

I really loved the Lady Janies series, and I can't wait to see what this trio of authors does with some famous Marys!

  12. I've only read My Lady Jane which I thought felt younger than I was expecting but also perfect for teens. I love werewolf/shapeshifter stories so I am so tempted...
