When college student Rena Collins finds herself nose-to-chest with the campus outcast, her rumor-laced notions are shattered. Handsome, considerate, and seemingly sane, Wallace Blake doesn’t look like he spends his nights alone, screaming and banging on the walls of his dorm room. Hell, he doesn’t look like he spends his nights alone, period.
Too curious for her own good, Rena vows to uncover the truth behind Wallace’s madman reputation--and how two seconds of contact had left her with bruises. Of course, there are a few setbacks along the way: guilt, admiration, feelings of the warm and fuzzy variety…
Not to mention the unwanted attention of Wallace's powerful, supernaturally-gifted family.
They’re a bloodline divided by opposing ideals, two soon-to-be warring factions that live in secret among us. When Rena ends up caught in their crossfire, Wallace has no choice but to save her by using his powers. Now they’re really in trouble. With war on the horizon and Rena’s life in the balance, he needs to put some distance between them. But Rena won’t let go. If fighting is what it takes to prove her own strength and keep Wallace in her life, then that’s what she’ll do--even if it means risking a whole lot more than her heart.

Are you reading any awesome ARCs right now? What are you excited about in the YA world of reading? ...oh, did you say Uprising (Children of the Gods #2) by Jessica Therrien? Weird! Me too!! Maybe you should go add that to your GoodReads TBR list while you're at it *wink wink*
Three more months!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo!
DeleteWow. Can I just say how grateful I am that none of you can see me? I busted out a little happy dance in the middle. LOL
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Jessica! You have no idea how excited I am to hear that you're enjoying Strength. In fact, it makes me excited to get back to work on Book 2! You've made my week. :)
P.S. I'm excited for Uprising by Jessica Therrien, too! What a coincidence...
So glad I got you pumped for book 2!! I'll do a full review when I'm finished :) Thanks for sending me the ARC!

ReplyDeleteI'm reading "What happened to goodbye," by Sarah Dessen. She's my new fave author :)
I don't think I've visited your blog before, but I'll be back!
I know! I love it, too :) I'll have to check out Sarah Dessen. I haven't read any of her books. Thanks for visiting!!
DeleteAgree, agree, agree! When I was critting for her, I shut the kids out of my room so I could read--and that was before revisions. hahaha It is soooo good. I can't wait for March! :D
ReplyDeleteI do accept as true with all of the concepts you have presented to your post.
ReplyDeleteThey are really convincing and will definitely work.
Nonetheless, the posts are too short for newbies. Could you please
extend them a bit from next time? Thanks for the post.
