Surrender by Rhiannon Paille - Ashley's Pre-Reading


*I received this book as an eARC from Coscom Entertainment (through CreateSpace) on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*

Amazon | Goodreads


Title: Surrender
Author: Rhiannon Paille
Year Published: 2012

Synopsis: 

How far would you go to save everything you ever loved? 

Kaliel was warned about her love for the Ferryman. One day he will marry the land and leave Avristar forever. She doesn't listen, and because of what she is-- a Flame-- one of nine apocalyptic weapons, she sparks a war. In a desperate attempt to save her home and her love, Kaliel tries to awaken Avred, not knowing she may have to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Why?: I'm not usually a huge fan of romance novels, but this one sounds like it has just enough magic and mystery to hold my attention. And there's a war, and a pending apocalypse... Yeah, I think I can handle the romance with all of those other things.

Expectations: I expect this to be mostly a romance with a little bit of war, magic, and all of the fun stuff. And some cool other-worldly creatures.

Judging a book by its cover: The cover reminds me of a lot of other paranormal YA books, so although I think it's very pretty, I might not pick it up in a a bookstore or library based on the cover alone.
