WHY?
Someone posted the cover for this once, and I decided to check out the amazing summary. I've been hooked ever since! This book sounds AMAZING. It's been translated into English from its original German. The title may or may not come to the USA, so I have an imported copy on preorder from Book Depo. And that's totally okay, because could any cover be better than this one?
February...you're so close, yet so far away...! (Even longer by the time the title arrives at my house!)
SUMMARY: The night that Heaven lost her heart was cold and moonless. But the blade that sliced it out was warm with her dark blood...
David Pettyfer is taking a shortcut over the dark rooftops of London's brooding houses, when he literally stumbles across Heaven: a strange, beautiful, distraught girl who says that bad men have stolen her heart. Yet she's still alive...
And so begins David and Heaven's wild, exciting and mysterious adventure - to find Heaven's heart, and to discover the incredible truth about her origins.
Part thriller, part love story and part fairy tale, this brilliantly original novel from a bestselling German author will take your breath away...
