~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Here's my candidate for the week:

Wilder by Christina Dodd
Publisher: Signet Select (August 7, 2012)
Series: The Chosen Ones, 5
Genre: Paranormal Romance

Only beloved author Christina Dodd could bring you the explosive paranormal excitement of the Chosen Ones combined with Aleksandr Wilder's story ... and redemption...

As a young man, Aleksandr Wilder abandoned his duty--and for that lapse, he was tortured, tormented ... and transformed. Now he prowls the tunnels beneath the city, fighting on the frontline against the forces of hell, never daring to dream that he can live as a man again.

After seven years fighting the world's ultimate evil, Chosen One Charisma Fangorn has become a tough, strong warrior without illusions or joy...even her gift of hearing the earthsong has faded. Deaf to her own instincts, she never suspects that a monster lurks in the dark underneath the streets.

When Aleksandr finds Charisma under attack, he rescues and cares for her, and hope stirs once more in his heart...and in the world. But in the secret recesses of his soul, he knows the truth. A woman so exceptional could never love a beast...could she?
 

Where to Buy*:

Why?
I'll admit--while this cover doesn't blow me away, I still like it. I like the intensity behind it, the colors work pretty well, etc.

But mostly I'm looking forward to this book, drooling over it really, because I want to see how Ms. Dodd will redeem our naughty boy,  Aleksandr. :) I still need to read the last 2 books in this series, maybe I can catch up before August!

Hi sweetie. Bringing back memories. It has been awhile since I read this series. I am on the last book. Love the brothers and sister. I remember INTO THE SHADOW #3 was good. The ending was awesome about the sister I did not see coming. I do not remember Aleksandr. I agree with the cover very intense. I like how he is in the middle and just the eyes are really showing right behind him. This cover is different from her others. I will have to dig in my boxes and see if I still have this series. Hopefully I did not get rid of them. I would like to re-read them to remember Aleksandr. Love Lusting for Covers not only do we get new books never read before but also some old series that I have stopped reading. Thanks for posting this old series I have stopped reading. Hope you are having a nice weekend.

I'm afraid I don't remember a LOT about him, but I do recall some, he was the bad boy, the evil man. But I definitely need to take a reminder trip through the series, so hopefully I can do so before his book is released. :)

I'm glad that you are enjoying L4C. :) I love reading your comments and your choices for the week, I hope you continue to do so!

Finding a new book entirely is always nice, but I have to agree--finding a new book from a series you already know and love but may have left a few years ago...ah, that's a great feeling! :)

Enjoy!

Okay, I'm gonna have to duck and cover here---I've never read her.
But the cover is eye catching.
So, is this a series? And if so--what is the first book I should start with?
Great choice!
Working on my post right now, lol---I know, I know, I'm late :)
Have a great Sunday!
