Waiting on Wednesday

"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, originally started by Jill at Breaking the Spine , that highlights upcoming book releases everyone is waiting on...hence the title. This week's pick is Seeking Crystal by Joss Stirling. Here's the synopsis:

"Sparks will fly . . . Passion will ignite . . .

Crystal Brook has always been the dud Savant in her family; paranormal powers just aren't her thing. Dropping out of school with a clutch of 'E' grades and no future, she lives in the shadow of her high-flying sister Diamond. On a trip to Denver, a chance encounter with the dashing Benedict brothers leaves Diamond head over heels in love and engaged to be married. Crystal, on the other hand, is unimpressed by their charms . . . in fact no boy can annoy her as much as Xav Benedict! Back in Venice, their families assemble for Diamond's wedding and a powerful enemy seizes the opportunity to attack. Crystal and Xav must join forces to save their loved-ones, unlocking a secret that, until now, has lain deeply buried ..."


I LOVE this series.  Seeking Crystal is the third instalment (following Finding Sky and Stealing Phoenix, both of which I have read and reviewed on the blog).  Now it's Xavier's turn to meet his soulmate in the form of Crystal Brook.  I don't care that I know the destination, it's the journey that makes it exciting and I can't wait to read all about Xavier and Crystal's journey towards each other.  If this series were in hardback, that would make my day but I'll settle for the pretty paperbacks for now.  


Seeking Crystal is published on 16th October, 2012. To find out more about Joss Stirling and her books, please click here to visit her website.

    1. Oh, do! I love these books and if you're interested, I've reviewed them both on the blog. Just search for FINDING SKY and STEALING PHOENIX. Thanks for commenting :)

  3. The first sentence of the blurb makes me want to steer way clear of this series, but I'm going to trust you and go add Finding Sky to goodreads.
