Waiting On Wednesday: Edge of Dawn by Lara Adrian

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill over at her blog, Breaking the Spine. It's easy to participate in this meme--all you need to do is post the title(s) you're really really waiting to read. Here are our picks. We haven't participated in a while and wanted to get back into sharing our choices.

I have read all eleven Midnight Breed books, loved many, really liked the others, and had mixed feelings about the ending of Darker After Midnight. But--and there's always a "but" isn't there?--I just read the first two chapters from a link the author put on Facebook and I am LIKING where the series is going. Dante and Gabrielle's son is eighteen? The Breed walk among the humans? Whoa, thanks to Lara Adrian for continuing her beloved series.

Edge of Dawn (Midnight Breed, Book #11)

Twenty years after the terror of First Dawn—when mankind learned that vampires lived secretly among them—the threat of violence reigns as the two species struggle to coexist. The only group preserving the fragile harmony is the Order, an elite cadre of Breed warriors dedicated to protecting humans and vampires alike. And in this precarious world of torn loyalties and shattered trust, Mira, a fiery squad captain, finds that every fight bears an intensely personal cost.

Raised among the Order, Mira has always believed in the warrior’s code of swift—and even lethal—justice. But the one thing she desires more than the Order’s hard-won acceptance is Kellan Archer, a sexy but troubled Breed fighter. In love with him since childhood, Mira once broke through his tough exterior during an unexpected night of rapture, but the next day he mysteriously disappeared, never to return.

Kellan didn’t think he would ever see Mira again—or have to confront the truth of why he left. After abandoning the Order years ago, he now leads a band of human rebels intent on carrying out their own vigilante rule of law. Yet a high-profile kidnapping assignment brings him face-to-face with the past he sought to avoid, and the striking woman he has tried desperately to forget. And as tensions mount and the risk of bloodshed grows, Kellan and Mira must take sides—between the competing missions that dominate their lives, and the electrifying passion that claims their hearts.

Edge of Dawn will be released on February 26th by Delacorte Press.
