Gifted
(Unearthly, #2)
Publisher: Egmont Books
Release Date: January 2, 2012
For months part-angel Clara Gardner trained to face the raging forest fire from her visions and rescue the alluring and mysterious Christian Prescott from the blaze. But nothing could prepare her for the fateful decisions she would be forced to make that day, or the startling revelation that her purpose—the task she was put on earth to accomplish—is not as straightforward as she thought.

Now, torn between her increasingly complicated feelings for Christian and her love for her boyfriend, Tucker, Clara struggles to make sense of what she was supposed to do the day of the fire. And, as she is drawn further into the world of part angels and the growing conflict between White Wings and Black Wings, Clara learns of the terrifying new reality that she must face: Someone close to her will die in a matter of months. With her future uncertain, the only thing Clara knows for sure is that the fire was just the beginning.
My copy finally came this week from The Book Depo. It was gifted to me through RAK from Debdatta @ b00k r3vi3ws . Thank you so much Debdatta! =) And yes, I know this is the UK cover, it was ordered from The Book Depo. =) It's pretty! When she ordered it, I didn't know it was going to be the UK cover, didn't even think about it. But when I got it I was really surprised! I'm used to seeing the US cover around. =D
For Review
(Dark Heart, #1)
Publisher: Hodder Children's Books (Hachette UK)
Release Date: October 1, 2010
Jane Jonas is nearing her 16th birthday and troubled by unsettling recurring dreams where the same mysterious boy her age comes to her, telling Jane that they are each other's destiny. Her mother is increasingly anxious about Jane's disruptive sleepwalking episodes, but for Jane her dream world and reality are about to collide ...

When she develops a friendship with an enigmatic stranger in town, the blond, uber-cool Evan, it's exciting, it's new, and Jane wants him more than she's ever wanted anybody - until her mystery dream boy gets in the way.

Now Jane is caught between two worlds: one familiar, but tinged with romance and excitement; the other dark and dangerous, where angels, werewolves, and an irresistible stranger are trying to seduce her ...
The awesome publicity team at Hodder Children's Books sent me the first three books in the Dark Heart series! I've heard great things about this series. Is it out in the US? I can't remember. If you've read this series, let me know what you think! I'm only going to put the summary up for the first book, as I don't like to read summaries of the sequels of a book I haven't read, if that makes sense. So I'm not going to put them up! But I will show you the covers and titles of the 2nd and 3rd book! =) The covers are beautiful!

  2. I enjoyed reading Hallowed, but not as much as I thought I would. I've never heard of the Dark Heart series but the covers look pretty. :)
