Waiting on Wednesday #1 - Shade by Jeri Smith-Ready.

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted at Breaking the Spine that spotlights eagerly awaited upcoming releases.

This week's selection is:

Shade
by Jeri Smith-Ready
Publication date: May 4th 2010.
Love ties them together.
Death can't tear them apart.
Best. Birthday. Ever. At least, it was supposed to be. With Logan's band playing a critical gig and Aura's plans for an intimate after-party, Aura knows it will be the most memorable night of her boyfriend's life. She never thought it would be his last.

Logan's sudden death leaves Aura devastated. He's gone.

Well, sort of.

Like everyone born after the Shift, Aura can see and hear ghosts. This mysterious ability has always been annoying, and Aura had wanted nothing more than to figure out why the Shift happened so she can undo it. But not with Logan’s violet-hued spirit still hanging around. Because dead Logan is almost as real as ever. Almost.

It doesn't help that Aura’s new friend Zachary is so understanding—and so very alive. His support means more to Aura than she cares to admit.

As Aura's relationships with the dead and the living grow ever complicated, so do her feelings for Logan and Zachary. Each holds a piece of Aura's heart…and clues to the secret of the Shift.

I am super excited for this book.  I just know it's going to be my next urban fantasy addiction! Best of all, you can now read chapter one of Shade on Jeri's blog.  Enjoy!

Leann at YA Book Queen has a signed ARC of Shade up for grabs. The contest is open internationally, and you can enter here.  But hurry, the contest ends tomorrow!
