Waiting on Wednesday (9)

Hello Amazing Bloggers! 
I hope you all are having a wonderful Wednesday.


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine where readers describe a book they are waiting for and add more wonderful books in their TBR pile! 

This week I'm waiting on...


Within the walls of Baalboden, beneath the shadow of the city’s brutal leader, Rachel Adams has a secret. While other girls sew dresses, host dinner parties, and obey their male Protectors, Rachel knows how to survive in the wilderness and deftly wield a sword. When her father, Jared, fails to return from a courier mission and is declared dead, the Commander assigns Rachel a new Protector, her father’s apprentice, Logan—the same boy Rachel declared her love for two years ago, and the same boy who handed her heart right back to her. Left with nothing but fierce belief in her father’s survival, Rachel decides to escape and find him herself. But treason against the Commander carries a heavy price, and what awaits her in the Wasteland could destroy her. 

At nineteen, Logan McEntire is many things. Orphan. Outcast. Inventor. As apprentice to the city’s top courier, Logan is focused on learning his trade so he can escape the tyranny of Baalboden. But his plan never included being responsible for his mentor’s impulsive daughter. Logan is determined to protect her, but when his escape plan goes wrong and Rachel pays the price, he realizes he has more at stake than disappointing Jared. 

As Rachel and Logan battle their way through the Wasteland, stalked by a monster that can’t be killed and an army of assassins out for blood, they discover romance, heartbreak, and a truth that will incite a war decades in the making.

This synopsis is magnificent! It makes me really excited to read this story! I love how the main character has my name. After reading and loving Grave Mercy by Robin LaFever, I'm ready for more adventure filled historical fiction books! I can't wait to read this book! 

What are you waiting on this wednesday?

    I want this book so badly!! Even if the cover wasn't epically pretty, I think that the synopsis and promise of a strong heroine and awesome hero would be enough to have me jumping up and down for this book :) And assassins too? Add them up! ;)

    Awesome pick for your WOW this week, Rachel! Hope you have an awesome Wednesday!
