Waiting on Wednesday: The Carrier of the Mark

This is a weekly meme hosted by Jill from Breaking the Spine.  "Waiting on Wednesday" spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

The Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon
Pub. Date: September 13, 2011


Goodreads says, "A move to Ireland is about to introduce Megan to her destiny, her real destiny, can she embrace it and will she survive it?  A tragedy in Megan’s past set her on a predetermined course. A chain of events has been set in motion that brings Megan to Kinsale, a small town in the south of Ireland where her destiny awaits her. Her life starts to fall into place as she makes new friends and settles into her new school. However, the reclusive and distant Adam DeRís calls to her body and soul. She finds herself increasingly drawn to Adam and his strange family. Adam knows a secret from her past and he and his family hold the key to her future. A future that binds her to Adam and his world, a world of power, mystery and ancient orders. A world that unbeknownst to her, she very much belongs in."


First of all, lets talk about that cover! How intense and eye-catching is that?!  I will admit that the cover is what first grabbed my attention, but after reading the synopsis, I was even more interested in this one. Any story that takes place in Ireland, one of my favorite places to travel to, is a story that I'm sure to love.
