YAY for new books! I am excited about a handful of books that are being released today. I have only had a chance to read one of these, but I look forward to reading the rest soon!
Balthazar
by Claudia Gray
"Haunted by memories from
his first days as a vampire, Balthazar has spent hundreds of years
alone—without allies, without love. When he emerges from his isolation
to help Skye Tierney, a human girl who once attended Evernight Academy,
Balthazar has no idea how dangerous it will be. Skye’s psychic powers
have caught the attention of Redgrave, the cruel master vampire
responsible for murdering Balthazar and his family four centuries ago.
Having learned of Skye’s powers and the remarkable effect her blood has
on vampires, he plans to use her for his own evil purposes. As they
stand together to fight the evil vampire, Balthazar realizes his lonely
world could finally be changed by Skye...just as Redgrave realizes that
he can destroy Balthazar once and for all by taking her for his own.
In a story filled with forbidden love and dark suspense, one of the most beloved characters in Claudia Gray’s New York Times bestselling Evernight series will captivate readers with his battle to overcome his past and follow his heart."

The Grave Robber's Apprentice by
Allan Stratton
"Hans doesn't know who he is or where
he came from. When he was a baby, he washed ashore in a wooden box and
was adopted by the conniving grave robber, Knobbe the Bent. Now fate has
thrown him together with Angela von Schwanenberg, a young countess
fleeing for her life from the evil Archduke Arnulf and his dreaded
Necromancer. Together, these friends are on a daring quest to discover
Hans' true identity and to save Angela's parents from the archduke.
Join Hans and Angela on their grand adventure as they ride through the depths of the great forest, sled down a mountain in a coffin, and sneak along the secret passageways of the archduke's palace. The Grave Robber's Apprentice is a world of highwaymen, hermits, and dancing bears; and of a boy separated from his family by the sea.

Fair Game (Alpha & Omega #3)
by Patricia Briggs
"They say opposites
attract. And in the case of werewolves Anna Latham and Charles Cornick,
they mate. The son-and enforcer-of the leader of the North American
werewolves, Charles is a dominant alpha. While Anna, an omega, has the
rare ability to calm others of her kind.
Now that the werewolves have revealed themselves to humans, they can't afford any bad publicity. Infractions that could have been overlooked in the past must now be punished, and the strain of doing his father's dirty work is taking a toll on Charles.
Nevertheless, Charles and Anna are sent to Boston, when the FBI requests the pack's help on a local serial killer case. They quickly realize that not only the last two victims were werewolves-all of them were. Someone is targeting their kind. And now Anna and Charles have put themselves right in the killer's sights..."

Illuminate
by Aimee Agresti
"Haven Terra is a brainy,
shy high school outcast. But everything begins to change when she turns
sixteen. Along with her best friend Dante and their quiet and brilliant
classmate Lance, she is awarded a prestigious internship in the big
city— Chicago—and is sent to live and work at a swanky and stylish hotel
under the watchful eyes of a group of gorgeous and shockingly
young-looking strangers: powerful and alluring hotel owner Aurelia
Brown; her second-in-command, the dashing Lucian Grove; and their
stunning but aloof staff of glamazons called The Outfit.
As Haven begins falling for Lucian, she discovers that these beautiful people are not quite what they seem. With the help of a mysterious book, she uncovers a network of secret passageways from the hotel’s jazz-age past that leads her to the heart of the evil agenda of Aurelia and company: they’re in the business of buying souls. Will they succeed in wooing Haven to join them in their recruitment efforts, or will she be able to thwart this devilish set’s plans to take the souls of her classmates on prom night at the hotel?
Illuminate is an exciting saga of a teen’s first taste of independence, her experience in the lap of luxury, and her discovery she may possess strength greater than she ever knew."
