"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Title: Quicksilver
Author: Amanda Quick
Release Date: April 19th, 2011
Virginia Dean wakes at midnight beside a dead body, with a bloody knife in her hand and no memory of the evening’s events. Dark energy, emanating from the mirrors lining the room, overpowers her senses. With no apparent way in or out, she is rescued by a man she has met only once before, but won’t soon forget….
Owen Sweetwater inherited his family’s talent for hunting the psychical monsters who prey on London’s women and children, and his investigation into the deaths of two glass-readers has led him here. The high-society types of the exclusive Arcane Society would consider her an illusionist, a charlatan, even a criminal, but Owen knows better. Virginia’s powers are real – and they just might be the key to solving this challenging case.

ReplyDeleteQuicksilver looks good - nice pick. Have a great week and happy reading. My WOw pick is here
ReplyDeleteI use to love historical fiction. In fact, my first "grown-up" book love was The Flame and the Flower, by Kathleen Woodiwiss. I read all of her books when I was in high school. (My mom would probably die if she knew. LOL) Anyway, it's been a long time since I've enjoyed a nice historical romance. I'll have to give these a try. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment on Reading Lark.
