This week my Waiting on Wednesday book is Tangled Threads (Elemental Assassin, Book 4) by Jennifer Estep. The Elemental Assassin series has been a wonderful series. The books feature a strong, kick-butt, funny female lead and are action packed urban fantasies...with just a hint of romance. I strongly recommend them if you are a fan of urban fantasy. Anyway the cover art and a synopsis of the book are shown below.

Synopsis From Paperbackswap.com: "I’d rather face a dozen lethal assassins any night than deal with some thing as tricky, convoluted, and fragile as my feelings. But here I am. Gin Blanco, the semi-retired assassin known as the Spider. Hovering out side sexy businessman Owen Grayson’s front door like a nervous teenage girl. One thing I like about Owen: he doesn’t shy away from my past -- or my present. And right now I have a bull’s-eye on my forehead. Cold-blooded Fire elemental Mab Monroe has hired one of the smartest assassins in the business to trap me. Elektra LaFleur is skilled and efficient, with deadly electrical elemental magic as potent as my own Ice and Stone powers. Which means there’s a fifty-fifty chance one of us won’t survive this battle. I intend to kill LaFleur -- or die trying -- because Mab wants the assassin to take out my baby sister, Detective Bria Coolidge, too. The only problem is, Bria has no idea I’m her long-lost sibling … or that I’m the murderer she’s been chasing through Ashland for weeks. And what Bria doesn’t know just might get us both dead …"

Oh yeah...you and me both.I can't wait to read this one as well. I hope when we get the book, that we will enjoy it as much as we hope to. Wanna see what I am Waiting On Wednesday for?
ReplyDeleteThis one looks totally fun - thanks for sharing this! You might also enjoy a new fantasy thriller out called, "Blood Soup," by Kelly A. Harmon. The characters are complex, the story is fast paced. All in all it's a really great read that I couldn't put down.
