~Waiting on Wednesday~ Ash Princess (Untitled Trilogy #1)

                “Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.  Basically books that are not yet out that we are dying to get our hands on.  This week’s pick is:

Ash Princess (Untitled Trilogy #1) by Laura Sebastian
Out:  4/24

From Goodreads:
                Theodosia was six when her country was invaded and her mother, the Queen of Flame and Fury, was murdered before her eyes.  Ten years later, Theo has learned to survive under the relentless abuse of the Kaiser and his court as the ridiculed “Ash Princess.”  Pretending to be empty-headed and naïve when she’s not enduring brutal whippings, she pushes down all other thoughts but one:  Keep the Kaiser happy and he will keep you safe.

                When the Kaiser forces her to execute her last home of rescue, Theo can’t keep her feelings and memories pushed down any longer.  She vows revenge, throwing herself into a plot to seduce and murder the Kaiser’s warrior son with the help of a group of magically gifted and volatile rebels.  But Theo doesn’t expect to develop feelings for the Prince.  Or for her rebel allies to challenge her friendship with the one person who’s been kind to her throughout the last hopeless decade:  her heart’s sister, Cress.

                Cornered into impossible choices and unable to trust even those who are on her side, Theo will have to decide how far she’s willing to go to save her people and how much of herself she’s willing to sacrifice to become queen.

Why I’m Waiting:
                The cover caught my eye first but reading the synopsis has me interested.  I think this could be a very dark story and I’m curious. 


                What are you waiting on?  Tell me below what you think of this title and leave a link to your WoW as well so I can check it out.
