Waiting on Wednesday 10.11.11








"Waiting on Wednesday" is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine which welcomes books that we are anxiously waiting for.




The Knife and the Butterfly by


My latest novel follows two teenagers through the aftermath of a deadly gang fight in a Houston park. There’s Lexi, a troubled girl from a working class background who hangs with a street gang for protection. And there’s Azael, a romantic drifter essentially orphaned by his mom’s death and his father’s deportation to El Salvador. Both Lexi and Azael live in a violent world governed by complex loyalties that land them in deeper trouble than they ever imagined possible.

After the gang fight, they each seek the truth of what happened on that sultry summer day, and that truth eventually draws them together in a surprising yet powerful
way.






Shattered Souls by Mary Lindsay


Lenzi hears voices and has visions - gravestones, floods, a boy with steel gray eyes. Her boyfriend, Zak, can't help, and everything keeps getting louder and more intense. Then Lenzi meets Alden, the boy from her dreams, who reveals that she's a reincarnated Speaker - someone who can talk to and help lost souls - and that he has been her Protector for centuries.

Now Lenzi must choose between her life with Zak and the life she is destined to lead with Alden. But time is running out: a malevolent spirit is out to destroy Lenzi, and he will kill her if she doesn't make a decision soon.
