Waiting on Wednesday (2)

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.






This week I have chosen one of the books I look forward the most and the cover has been revealed recently too!


Once Burned by Jeaniene Frost

~Expected publication: June 26th 2012~


(Summary from Goodreads):


She’s a mortal with dark powers...

After a tragic accident scarred her body and destroyed her dreams, Leila never imagined that the worst was still to come: terrifying powers that let her channel electricity and learn a person’s darkest secrets through a single touch. Leila is doomed to a life of solitude... until creatures of the night kidnap her, forcing her to reach out with a telepathic distress call to the world’s most infamous vampire...

He’s the Prince of Night...

Vlad Tepesh inspired the greatest vampire legend of all — but whatever you do, don’t call him Dracula. Vlad’s ability to control fire makes him one of the most feared vampires in existence, but his enemies have found a new weapon against him – a beautiful mortal with powers to match his own. When Vlad and Leila meet, however, passion ignites between them, threatening to consume them both. It will take everything that they are to stop an enemy intent on bringing them down in flames
















I can't wait for this first book in Jeaniene Frost's new series 'Night Prince' about Vlad! He's always been one of my most favorite characters in Night Huntress, so I'm really excited for this book! June can't come fast enough! And just look at the cover! ♥

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading






My teasers:


My parents didn't screw me up. Any screwing up that might have been done, I did to myself.      
—page 224, Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning


How many thousands of times had we called back and forth during the day, whispered back and forth during the night, woken each other up for comfort when we'd had bad dreams?
I was on my own with bad dreams now.
—page 13, Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning

Waiting On Wednesday (1)


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.












My pick for this week is:


The Golden Lily by Richelle Mead

Expected publication: June 19th 2012.


Summary (from Goodread):


The second thrilling installment in Richelle Mead’s Vampire Academy spinoff series.

Tough, brainy alchemist Sydney Sage and doe-eyed Moroi princess Jill Dragomir are in hiding at a human boarding school in the sunny, glamorous world of Palm Springs, California. The students—children of the wealthy and powerful—carry on with their lives in blissful ignorance, while Sydney, Jill, Eddie and Adrian must do everything in their power to keep their secret safe. But with forbidden romances, unexpected spirit bonds, and the threat of Strigoi moving ever closer, hiding the truth is harder than anyone thought.


Populated with new faces as well as familiar ones, Richelle Mead’s breathtaking Bloodlines series explores all the friendship, romance, battles and betrayals that made the #1 New York Times bestselling Vampire Academy series so addictive. In this second book, the drama is hotter, the romances are steamier, and the stakes are even higher.
