Recently I read the ARC of EMBRACE by Jessica Shirvington. More of a review closer to the release date, but for those of you looking for a great urban fantasy, with a strong female mc and a believable teen voice to read yourselves or recommend to teens, I'd say add this to your "Waiting on Wednesday" posts or to be read lists. It's good. Solid writing, totally believable character, and boy...the choice she has to make keeps you turning those pages to find out what happens. The ARC didn't have the final cover. But, now that cover is ready to go and I must say, I like it.
A lot.
And what is even cooler? There is a video of the cover shoot. Suweet!

A little more about the book from Sourcebooks;
"It starts with a whisper.
“It’s time for you to know who you are…”
Strange dreams leave her with very real injuries and there’s a dark tattoo weaving its way up her arms. The guy she thought she could fall in love with just told her he’s only half-human—oh, and same goes for her. And she keeps hearing a distant fluttering of wings.
Violet Eden is having a very bad 17th birthday.
But if angels seek vengeance and humans are the warriors, you could do a lot worse than betting on Violet Eden…"
Also well worth the read is Jessica's guest post on Page Turners about her debut in the U.S.
Congratulations to Jessica and the Sourcebooks team on a beautiful cover! Thanks for allowing me to be a part of spreading the word.

I wonder when the angel trend will play itself out, and what will be next in the way of supernatural creatures.

Ohhh, loved seeing the cover shoot! Very, very, very cool! This sounds like a book I'd love to read. Will have to add it to my To Read list!
