Waiting on Wednesday (12) - Struck


Waiting on Wednesday is a feature hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine that shares the upcoming releases we bloggers are on the edge of our seats about!

(from Goodreads)
Mia Price is a lightning addict. She’s survived countless strikes, but her craving to connect to the energy in storms endangers her life and the lives of those around her.

Los Angeles, where lightning rarely strikes, is one of the few places Mia feels safe from her addiction. But when an earthquake devastates the city, her haven is transformed into a minefield of chaos and danger. The beaches become massive tent cities. Downtown is a crumbling wasteland, where a traveling party moves to a different empty building each night, the revelers drawn to the destruction by a force they cannot deny. Two warring cults rise to power, and both see Mia as the key to their opposing doomsday prophecies. They believe she has a connection to the freak electrical storm that caused the quake, and to the far more devastating storm that is yet to come.

Mia wants to trust the enigmatic and alluring Jeremy when he promises to protect her, but she fears he isn’t who he claims to be. In the end, the passion and power that brought them together could be their downfall. When the final disaster strikes, Mia must risk unleashing the full horror of her strength to save the people she loves, or lose everything.

"Mia is a lightning addict". Um...sounds wonderful! I don't think I've seen an opening line like that in a synopsis before. With the genre currently flooded with vampires, shifters, and fae, I am excited to read about someone who is connected to lightning in a supernatural way. Hopefully this book will be the original breath of fresh air that I hope it will be!!!

What is YOUR WoW pick?

  3. Right? What the heck is a lightning addict exactly? Does she really enjoy being struck down by them? It's freaky and crazy and oh my frigging gosh I want it so bad. I just love that cover too!

    Have an amazing reading week!
