To test it Jacob and his friends start indulging comic book-like fantasies. Later, they commit to use this amazing power of indestructibility to do good in the world and save others from death.

Guardian of the Gate

Summary from Goodreads:
"The ultimate battle between sisters is nearing, and its outcome could have catastrophic consequences. As sixteen year-old Lia Milthorpe searches for a way to end the prophecy, her twin sister Alice hones the skills she'll need to defeat Lia. Alice will stop at nothing to reclaim her sister's role in the prophecy, and that's not the only thing she wants: There's also Lia's boyfriend James.

Lia and Alice always knew the Prophecy would turn those closest to them against them. But they didn't know what betrayal could lead them to do. In the end, only one sister will be left standing."



*The cover was released today, as well as the new paperback cover of Prophecy of the Sisters!  I think they are beautiful, but I don't think that they have the same 'feel' as the the hardcover of Prophecy of the Sisters.  What do you think??

Now you know what I am waiting for!  What are you waiting on?
