Waiting on Wednesday- Firelight


By Sophie Jordan
Published by Harper Teen
To Be Released on September 7th, 2010

A hidden truth.
Mortal enemies.
Doomed love.

Marked as special at an early age, Jacinda knows her every move is watched. But she longs for freedom to make her own choices. When she breaks the most sacred tenet among her kind, she nearly pays with her life. Until a beautiful stranger saves her. A stranger who was sent to hunt those like her. For Jacinda is a draki—a descendant of dragons whose greatest defense is her secret ability to shift into human form.

Forced to flee into the mortal world with her family, Jacinda struggles to adapt to her new surroundings. The only bright light is Will. Gorgeous, elusive Will who stirs her inner draki to life. Although she is irresistibly drawn to him, Jacinda knows Will's dark secret: He and his family are hunters. She should avoid him at all costs. But her inner draki is slowly slipping away—if it dies she will be left as a human forever. She'll do anything to prevent that. Even if it means getting closer to her most dangerous enemy.

Mythical powers and breathtaking romance ignite in this story of a girl who defies all expectations and whose love crosses an ancient divide

I am so excited for Firelight's release. Outside Clockwork Angel, this is my favorite Summer read. It's one of those books you sit down to read and you become so engrossed with the story, that before long you're wondering how you already finished the book. Firelight's ending will leave you wishing you had the sequel. If you're looking for a read that has magic, romance, action and danger, I highly recommend pre-ordering Firelight.

If you're in the Austin area, Sophie Jordan will be at The Austin Teen Book Festival on October 2nd! You can find a link to the ATBF via their button in our right hand side bar.
