This week, I am
waiting on Foretold by Jana Oliver
(12/11/12):
Description on GoodReads:
“Now that Riley’s
managed to (just barely) fend off Armageddon, everything’s changed. Well . . .
most things. After their passionate kiss before the big battle in the
cemetery, Beck is back to treating her like a little girl, as if nothing ever
happened. While she’d love to just tell him off and move on, Riley vowed to
take care of Beck the way he’s taken care of her since her father’s death—but
she’s about to get a whole lot more than she bargained for. When she’s
commissioned to go with Beck to his hometown and help him care for
his dying mother, they stumble too close to a dark and murderous secret, one
that Beck fears will drive Riley away from him forever. As chaos breaks loose,
Riley may be Beck's only hope for redemption . . . and survival.
Meanwhile, up in Atlanta, it’s quickly becoming clear that Heaven may have won a battle, but the war is far from over. Riley and Beck face a stormy future, as Lucifer's ex-right-hand-man, Sartael, proves himself to be more resilient than anyone thought. He has Atlanta in his grip and is about to begin a brutal war with the prince of Hell. As the seconds tick down toward a final confrontation, it's up to Riley and the man she loves to finally defeat their old enemy, or lose everything they've fought for.”

I absolutely love this series!! I loved it even more after
meeting the author at a conference and seeing how amazingly cool she was. I
love this new cover (though the British cover is even cooler –it’s apparently
been out in England already for a couple of months…). I’m so excited to see
where the story goes and to see more Riley and Beck! I’m just sad that it is
the last book in the series. I am so attached to all of the characters! I just
hope the author continues to write amazing books.
What are you waiting for this week?
I still haven't started this series, but it sounds like it's a great one. I'll have to get on that soon! Thanks for sharing :D

It is such a good series! Such a fun, kick-butt main character.
DeleteI haven't decided if I should read book three yet or not. Book two went in to House of Night territory and I don't know if I can handle more. :/
ReplyDeleteChristina, you should!!!! Book 3 more than makes up for book 2. I promise. Book 2 was my least favorite of all of them too.
DeleteI usually don't read paranormal, but I've been playing with the idea of giving this series a go. It sounds too good to pass up!

DeleteI'm a little behind with this series. need to catch up soon! Great pick.
