Waiting on Wednesday #688

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

A FORGERY OF FATE BY ELIZABETH LIM

Goodreads Description:

Beauty and the Beast meets Six of Crows in this romantic fantasy about a girl who paints the future and a cursed dragon lord, bound by love and deception in a plot to bring down the gods.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Six Crimson Cranes!


Truyan Saigas didn't choose to become a con artist, but after her father is lost at sea, it’s up to her to support her mother and two younger sisters. A gifted art forger, Tru has the unique ability to paint the future, but even such magic is not enough to put her family back together again, or stave off the gangsters demanding payment in blood for her mother’s gambling debts.

Left with few options, Tru agrees to a marriage contract with a mysterious dragon lord. He offers a fresh start for her mother and sisters and elusive answers about her father's disappearance, but in exchange, she must join him in his desolate undersea palace. And she must assist him in a plot to infiltrate the tyrannical Dragon King's inner circle, painting a future so treasonous, it could upend both the mortal and immortal realms. . . .

Format: 480 pages, Hardcover
Expected Publication: June 3, 2025 by Knopf Books for Young Readers
Pre-Order: Blackwells and Amazon US and Amazon UK

Once I saw this gorgeous cover on Waterstones I could not help myself from ordering it, ha. I now own several books by Elizabeth though I haven't read any of them yet. Oops. But soon :D This one sounds all kinds of awesome and I cannot wait to read it. I am feeling hopeful that I will end up loving this story. <3
What are you waiting for on this fateful Wednesday?
