Summary:
A dark and tender post-apocalyptic love story set in the aftermath of a bloody war.
In a city where humans and Darklings are now separated by a high wall and tensions between the two races still simmer after a terrible war, sixteen-year-olds Ash Fisher, a half-blood Darkling, and Natalie Buchanan, a human and the daughter of the Emissary, meet and do the unthinkable—they fall in love. Bonded by a mysterious connection that causes Ash’s long-dormant heart to beat, Ash and Natalie first deny and then struggle to fight their forbidden feelings for each other, knowing if they’re caught, they’ll be executed—but their feelings are too strong.
When Ash and Natalie then find themselves at the center of a deadly conspiracy that threatens to pull the humans and Darklings back into war, they must make hard choices that could result in both their deaths.
Why I am lurking on this: Just look at the cover! I totally want to find out what this beauty hiding on her inside! Okay, the whole forbidden love story is something that might not be so catchy anymore, but the "causes Ahs's long.dormant heart to beat" sure got me!
Black City is an excellent pick! I can't wait to read it either! Thanks for sharing, oh and new follower on Linky. ^.^ If you would like to check out my Waiting On Wednesday you can do so here. 🙂
