This week I'm waiting on.....
The Shadow Queen by C.J. Redwine
Releases on: February 23rd 2016
Lorelai Diederich, crown
princess and fugitive at large, has one mission: kill the wicked queen
who took both the Ravenspire throne and the life of her father. To do
that, Lorelai needs to use the one weapon she and Queen Irina have in
common—magic. She’ll have to be stronger, faster, and more powerful than
Irina, the most dangerous sorceress Ravenspire has ever seen.
In the neighboring kingdom of Eldr, when Prince Kol’s father and older brother are killed by an invading army of magic-wielding ogres, the second-born prince is suddenly given the responsibility of saving his kingdom. To do that, Kol needs magic—and the only way to get it is to make a deal with the queen of Ravenspire, promise to become her personal huntsman…and bring her Lorelai’s heart.
But Lorelai is nothing like Kol expected—beautiful, fierce, and unstoppable—and despite dark magic, Lorelai is drawn in by the passionate and troubled king. Fighting to stay one step ahead of the dragon huntsman—who she likes far more than she should—Lorelai does everything in her power to ruin the wicked queen. But Irina isn’t going down without a fight, and her final move may cost the princess the one thing she still has left to lose.

Thoughts:
If there's anything I love more than a fairy-tale retelling it's a fantasy style fairy-tale retelling, and The Shadow Queen sounds like it might be right up there with the best! I'm super, super excited for this one and so eager to sink my teeth into this twist on Snow White!
Does The Shadow Queen sound like something YOU would read?
And what are you waiting on this week?
