"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Illuminate (Gilded Wings #1) by Aimee Agresti:
Haven Terra is a
brainy, shy high school outcast. But everything begins to change when
she turns sixteen. Along with her best friend Dante and their quiet and
brilliant classmate Lance, she is awarded a prestigious internship in
the big city— Chicago—and is sent to live and work at a swanky and
stylish hotel under the watchful eyes of a group of gorgeous and
shockingly young-looking strangers: powerful and alluring hotel owner
Aurelia Brown; her second-in-command, the dashing Lucian Grove; and
their stunning but aloof staff of glamazons called The Outfit.
As Haven begins falling for Lucian, she discovers that these
beautiful people are not quite what they seem. With the help of a
mysterious book, she uncovers a network of secret passageways from the
hotel’s jazz-age past that leads her to the heart of the evil agenda of
Aurelia and company: they’re in the business of buying souls. Will they
succeed in wooing Haven to join them in their recruitment efforts, or
will she be able to thwart this devilish set’s plans to take the souls
of her classmates on prom night at the hotel?
