In The Mail

So, this is the only time I am going to do this, but yesterday I was sooo excited, because I recieved three very cool ARCs in the mail; from a contest held by Kristi @ THESTORYSIREN. You should check it out. Here are the books ;

DARKLIGHT by LESLEY LIVINGSTON
In this sequel to Wondrous Strange, Kelley Winslow finds her NYC acting career blossoming as she takes the lead in Romeo and Juliet. But she also finds herself desperately missing Sonny Flannery--who was forced back to the Faerie Otherworld, charged with a dangerous mission by Kelley's father, King Auberon.
When Kelley finds herself thrown into the Otherworld following a deadly chase in Central Park, her passionate reunion with Sonny is cut short. Ancient magick is stirring, and a dangerous enemy has Sonny and Kelley caught in a web of Faerie deception that could tear their love apart.


(I have started reading this book; and am almost done-I brought it to school and couldn't put it down-and will have a review up soon. I love it so far!)

(So excited to read this book!!)

SCONES AND SENSIBILITY by LINDSAY ELAND
Polly Madassa is convinced she was born for a more romantic time. A time when Elizabeth Bennet and Anne of Green Gables walked along the moors and beaches of the beautiful land, a time where a distinguished gentleman called upon a lady of quality and true love was born in the locked eyes of two young lovers.
But alas, she was not.
This, however, does not stop our young heroine from finding romance wherever she can conjure it up. So while Polly is burdened with a summer job of delivering baked goods from her parents bakery (how quaint!) to the people in her small beach town, she finds a way to force…um…encourage romance to blossom. She is determined to bring lovers, young and old, together…whether they want to be or not.”

(Just heard of the book, it sounds really interesting, can't wait to read it!)
