Waiting on Wednesday (10)

Posted by

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event that is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating. 
My pick this week:

                                    Masquerade (Heven & Hell, #1)

                                    Cambria Hebert

                                    Release date: December 16th, 2011

Before. Everything was so much better Before. I wasn’t haunted by nightmares, my place at school was secure and my face was flawless. Now, I’m a freak and everything has changed. The worst part is that I can’t remember the night I was sentenced to the shadows. The memory has been stolen from me and I just can’t shake the feeling that someone, something is out there -watching.

Just when I think I have my life handled, Sam, with his intimidating golden stare and shiver inducing voice, makes me realize that I don’t know anything. He makes me see that my scars don’t matter. That they never mattered. I can’t help but fall for him, completely unknowing that he knows exactly how I got this way. Not knowing he was involved.
***
Heven has no idea how closely death stalks her. She has no idea what I have done to keep her alive. I fear the day she learns my secrets, finds out what I really am. But even then I cannot stop, I vow to make things right. Finally her hunter will be hunted, Heaven and Hell, faith and sin will battle, and we will be victorious. But first, Heven must learn to be what she never imagined. I know her strength is there – I feel it. If we are to overcome all odds, she must push past her flaws – her frailties – to become much more.

When one of my Goodreads friends added this last week I instantly noticed the wonderful and unique cover and checked what it was about- I was soon convinced that I just Had to read it. It sounds original, mysterious and suspenseful – just my kind of book!

What are you waiting on this week?

    I want to read this as well everytime I see this cover though I can’t help thinking how weird her lips look and wonder what she has on them.
    Great choice and thanks for visiting.

    The cover is very striking and unusual, and something about the cover model reminds me of Ke$ha for some reason. Hope you read it soon – I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it.

    I hadn’t heard of this one until just now. The premise sounds interesting, but the cover is a little spooky. Spooky is good! 🙂 Great pick.

    I have never heard of this book before and although it sounds like it might follow the typical YA formula it sounds very interesting so I hope its a uniquely good read. Adding it to my TBR!
