Wishful Wednesday was inspired by Waiting on Wednesday and Desperately Wanting Wednesday by Breaking the Spine and Parajunkee.
Wishful Wednesday is my own little version of "Waiting On Wednesday". Every two weeks or so, I'll pick a topic or genre and list a few upcoming books (or book) that I'm anticipating the release for. This week, that book is going to be Illusions of Fate by the exquisitely talented and wonderful Kiersten White. I will read EVERYTHING that she writes! Her Paranormalcy trilogy absolutely wowed me with colorful characters and witty banter. She is definitely on my auto-buy list, for sure! If you haven't read anything by the lovely Kiersten White, then I would suggest starting with her Paranormalcy trilogy. It's just a lot of fun to read and if you like paranormal romance and intrigue, then it's definitely the place to start.
I'm so excited for this book, because um...Hi, you had me at Downton Abbey! I happen to love romantic fantasy novels with a passion and from the synopsis of this one, it's going to be a gorgeous and compelling story!

Downton Abbey meets Cassandra Clare in this lush, romantic fantasy from New York Times bestselling author Kiersten White.
"I did my best to keep you from crossing paths with this world. And I shall do my best to protect you now that you have."
Jessamin has been an outcast since she moved from her island home of Melei to the dreary country of Albion. Everything changes when she meets Finn, a gorgeous, enigmatic young lord who introduces her to the secret world of Albion’s nobility, a world that has everything Jessamin doesn’t—power, money, status…and magic. But Finn has secrets of his own, dangerous secrets that the vicious Lord Downpike will do anything to possess. Unless Jessamin, armed only with her wits and her determination, can stop him.
Kiersten White captured readers’ hearts with her New York Times bestselling Paranormalcy trilogy and its effortless mix of magic and real-world teenage humor. She returns to that winning combination of wit, charm, and enchantment in Illusions of Fate, a sparkling and romantic new novel perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare, The Madman’s Daughter, and Libba Bray.
Kiersten White is the New York Times best-selling author of Paranormalcy trilogy. She also gives the most awkward hugs in the world. You should probably opt for one of her books over one of her hugs, but then again, maybe you like awkward hugs.
Kiersten enjoys writing flirting scenes, and fighting scenes, and sometimes she writes scenes that fall somewhere in between the two, but only if she can't avoid it.
