Why I Am Excited!
Well, I have not read any of Michelle Zinks work yet, but this book caught my eye the moment I saw it. Not only does the blurb make me want to get my hands and eyes all over this book, but the cover is just stunning. And I do love a good historical fantasy with plenty of romance! And even though I tweeted my heart out last night to win an ARC of this book and didn't win, that doesn't stop me from wanting this book hardcore. March isn't that far away thank goodness! Oh, and I really like the fact that we are going to be getting a love square. Yeah, a square! 3 hot dudes, one is evil, like how awesomely tempting is that going to be?! So yeah, I CAN'T wait. [:
