"Waiting On" Wednesday: Hourglass

It's been awhile since I've participated in any memes, but I recently used some Christmas money to preorder a lot of new books that will be released this year, so in honor of that, I will have a nice series of W.O.W. posts to share with all of you! First up...

Hourglass by Claudia Gray. Release Date: March 9, 2010.

Synopsis:

Bianca will risk everything to be with Lucas.

After escaping from Evernight Academy, the vampire boarding school where they met, Bianca and Lucas take refuge with Black Cross, a fanatical group of vampire hunters. Bianca must hide her supernatural heritage or risk certain death at their hands. But when Black Cross captures her friend—the vampire Balthazar—hiding is no longer an option. 

Soon, Bianca and Lucas are on the run again, pursued not only by Black Cross, but by the powerful leaders of Evernight. Yet no matter how far they travel, Bianca can't escape her destiny. 

Bianca has always believed their love could survive anything . . . but can it survive what's to come?

I am looking forward to finishing up this trilogy--I started reading it so late in the game that in the end I'll only have to have waited a couple of months for the release of this book. But I'm excited about it, nonetheless! BTW, this is also my favorite cover of the three--the model is striking and her makeup reminds me a little of Old Hollywood.
