A move to Ireland is about to introduce Megan to her destiny, her real destiny, can she embrace it and will she survive it?
A tragedy in Megan’s past set her on a predetermined course. A chain of events has been set in motion that brings Megan to Kinsale, a small town in the south of Ireland where her destiny awaits her. Her life starts to fall into place as she makes new friends and settles into her new school. However, the reclusive and distant Adam DeRĂs calls to her body and soul.
She finds herself increasingly drawn to Adam and his strange family. Adam knows a secret from her past and he and his family hold the key to her future. A future that binds her to Adam and his world, a world of power, mystery and ancient orders. A world that unbeknownst to her, she very much belongs in.
Okay, this sounds a bit grandiose, I'm not going to lie. But that doesn't keep me from wanting it. It's one of the books I'm assuming will be promoted at BEA, and 1 of the reasons I wish I was going to be there. I think what intrigues me most is that the author and this story was actually discovered on inkpop, and is the first inkpop story HarperTeen will be publishing. That's pretty awesomesauce (way to go, Leigh!), so I'm curious to see what it's all about.
And can we all just take a moment to look at the cover.... sigh.
What's on your wishlist?
This is on my wishlist too! So jealous of people at BEA that could get ARCs of this.

This one is on my wishlist! I've seen vids and pics of people with this book. I am so jealous! I'm hoping to do a trade for this, because it looks so cool.
ReplyDeleteWitch Eyes is also one of my wishlist books. Should have really gone to BEA.
Hope you're having a great time in the Armchair!
Looks good. I'll read just about anything to do with Ireland :)
ReplyDeleteThis cover blows me away it's so cool.
