"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Goodreads Description:
In this epic and seductive gothic fantasy, a
vampire escapes the thrall of Dracula and embarks on her own search for
self-discovery and true love.
Her name was written in the pages of someone else's story: Lucy Westenra was one of Dracula's first victims.
But
her death was only the beginning. Lucy rose from the grave a vampire,
and has spent her immortal life trying to escape from Dracula's
clutches--and trying to discover who she really is and what she truly
wants.
Her undead life takes an unexpected turn when, in
twenty-first-century London, she meets another woman who is also
yearning to break free from her past. Iris’s family has built a health
empire based on a sinister secret, and they’ll do anything to stay in
power.
Lucy has long believed she would never love again. But
she finds herself compelled by the charming Iris, while Iris is
mesmerized by the confident and glamorous Lucy. But their intense
connection and blossoming love is threatened by forces from without.
Iris's mother won't let go of her without a fight, and Lucy's past still
has fangs: Dracula is on the prowl again.
Lucy Westenra has been
a tragically murdered teen, a lonesome adventurer, and a fearsome
hunter, but happiness always eluded her. Can she find the strength to
destroy Dracula once and for all, or will her heart once again be her
undoing?

I am so curious about this book. Ohh. Read some books by Kiersten, though I still have many more to read. And I very much loved her Frankenstein re-telling. I'm hoping this Dracula one will be just as good. Fingers crossed. I liked the cover, at least, ha :D And it sounds all kinds of interesting. Can't wait for it :)
