Waiting on Wednesday #42 * Gorgeous Cover Edition *

***"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.***

Darkness Before Dawn
By J.A. London
Publication Date: May 29th, 2012
Publisher: HarperTeen
This electrifying new trilogy blends the best of paranormal and dystopian storytelling in a world where the war is over. And the vampires won.

Humans huddle in their walled cities, supplying blood in exchange for safety. But not even that is guaranteed. Dawn has lost her entire family and now reluctantly serves as the delegate to Lord Valentine, the most powerful vampire for miles. It isn’t until she meets Victor, Valentine’s son, that she realizes not all vampires are monsters....

Darkness Before Dawn is a fresh new story with captivating characters, unexpected plot twists, a fascinating setting, and a compelling voice. Written under the name J. A. London by a talented mother-son team, the trilogy is perfect for fans of True Blood and the House of Night and Morganville Vampires series. (Goodreads)

(Fallen #3.5)
by Lauren Kate
Publication Date: January 24th, 2012
Publisher: Delacorte Press
Unexpected. Unrequited. Forbidden. Eternal. Everyone has their own love story.

And in a twist of fate, four extraordinary love stories combine over the course of a romantic Valentine's Day in Medieval England. Miles and Shelby find love where they least expect it. Roland learns a painful lesson about finding-and losing love. Arianne pays the price for a love so fierce it burns. And for the first -and last- time, Daniel and Luce will spend a night together like none other.

Lauren Kate's FALLEN IN LOVE is filled with love stories . . . the ones everyone has been waiting for.

True love never says goodbye... (Goodreads)


Dark Kiss
(Nightwatchers #1)
by Michelle Rowen
Publication Date:
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
After her soul is stolen in a kiss, a 16-year-old must join a force of demons and angels to protect humanity from an immortal threat. (Goodreads)

by Wendy Higgins
Publication Date: May 1st, 2012
Publisher: HarperTeen
What if there were teens whose lives literally depended on being bad influences? This is life for sons and daughters of fallen angels in Sweet Evil.

Anna, a tender-hearted southern girl, was born with the sixth sense to see and feel emotions of other people. She’s aware of a struggle within herself, an inexplicable pull toward danger, but it isn’t until she turns sixteen and meets the alluring Kaidan Rowe that she discovers her terrifying heritage, and her will-power is put to the test. He’s the boy your daddy warned you about. If only someone had warned Anna.

A cross-country trip forces Anna and Kai to face the reality that hope and love are not options for their kind. When it's time for Anna to confront her demons, will she choose to embrace her halo or her horns? (Goodreads)

Why am I Waiting on these books???

Ok, I couldn't pick just one book this week, so here you have the Gorgeous Cover Edition of WoW. I totally judge a book by it's cover, which I know I shouldn't do, but how can you resist these gorgeous covers? I'm really looking forward to checking out ALL of these books. :)

What are you Waiting for this week??

    GORGEOUS covers! The cover for Darkness Before Dawn looks like it came from the same mind as the cover of Torment (Lauren Kate).

    I LOVE the cover for Dark Kiss! Looks like a young James Dean.

    I'm SO excited for Fallen In Love :)

    Oh wow, so many great picks! I feel like Darkness Before Dawn could be a cover for one of the Fallen series' books - it looks very similar!
