I hate waiting...
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly blog post by Jill over at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights releases we're eagerly awaiting.
I didn't really plan this at the time, but today is an ACE publishers' day! Both books are published by ACE and they both happen to release on October 30th!
McKenzie was a normal
college student, save for one little twist: she’s a shadow reader,
someone who can both see the fae and track their movements between our
world and the Realm. It’s a gift for which she has been called insane,
one for which she has risked family and friends—and one that has now
plunged her into a brutal civil war among the fae.
With the reign of the king and his vicious general at an end, McKenzie hoped to live a more normal life while exploring her new relationship with Aren, the rebel fae who has captured her heart. But when her best friend, Paige, disappears McKenzie knows her wish is, for now, just a dream. McKenzie is the only one who can rescue her friend, but if she’s not careful, her decisions could cost the lives of everyone she’s tried so hard to save.
