The Beautiful Ashes cover - (un)Conventional Bookviews

The Beautiful Ashes (Broken Destiny #1) – Jeaniene Frost

 

In a world of shadows, anything is possible. Except escaping your fate.

Ever since she was a child, Ivy has been gripped by visions of strange realms just beyond her own. But when her sister goes missing, Ivy discovers the truth is far worse—her hallucinations are real, and her sister is trapped in a parallel realm. And the one person who believes her is the dangerously attractive guy who’s bound by an ancient legacy to betray her.

Adrian might have turned his back on those who raised him, but that doesn’t mean he can change his fate…no matter how strong a pull he feels toward Ivy. Together they search for the powerful relic that can save her sister, but Adrian knows what Ivy doesn’t: that every step brings Ivy closer to the truth about her own destiny, and a war that could doom the world. Sooner or later, it will be Ivy on one side and Adrian on the other. And nothing but ashes in between…

I’m really excited about Ms. Frost’s new NA title! I love her adult paranormal series, because her heroines are always kick-ass, strong, sassy and beautiful. I won’t have too long to wait, which is a good thing 🙂 This title is scheduled to be released on August 26th.

Thanks for stopping by, have a fantastic Wednesday! Don’t forget to leave me a link in your comment so I can come and check out your Waiting on Wednesday post, too.

      I hope so, too, Braine! I have it on pre-order, and luckily, my kids will be back to school next week, but I won’t 😀

      I love her Night Huntress series, Kirsty-Marie! I love her writing style, and how likable her heroines are (and of course how hot the heroes are 😉 )

      Thanks for stopping by.

      Yeah, Charlotte, I love her adult PNR/UF series, and I really hope I’ll enjoy her take on YA, too 🙂

    Blue Balliett has a new book coming out in 2015, in it her characters from 2 different series will join efforts to solve an art crime.

    Her target audience is upper elementary and middle school readers. My favorite of hers is The Wright 3 where the setting is Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House in Illinois.

    I have three books to read before the new release so I am acquainted with all of the characters. The Calder Game (3rd after Chasing Vermeer and The Wright 3), Hold Fast, and The Danger Box.

    She’s a Scholastic author (and on goodreads). Her website is cute. http://www.blueballiettbooks.com/

    I may check out her Nantucket Ghosts too.

      You think there will be back-stabbing involved? Heart-breaking, I agree with, but I hope you’re wrong about the back-stabbing 🙂

      Thanks for stopping by, Matt.

      Yeah, people seem to either really love it, or really not enjoy it at all 🙂 I hope I’ll enjoy it – even if the cover could have been better 🙂

      Thanks for stopping by, Lola.

    I haven’t ever read anything by Ms. Frost yet, but all I’ve heard is great things! I love NA with a paranormal twist, so I might eventually get to this when it releases! (Despite the horrible cover. Meh.) Thanks for sharing!

      I’m very happy you found the first four chapters to be promising, Micheline! I have it on pre-order, so the day of, it’ll magically appear on my kindle for my enjoyment 😀
