She awakes in an underground lab, with a bionic heart ticking in her chest. As she navigates her new life, she uncovers the sinister truth behind those she trusted the most, and the chilling secret of her family lineage…and her duty to uphold it.

The cover for this week's WoW is both stunning and hauntingly beautiful. When I see a cover like this it makes me want to pick up the book to see what it's about. In the end, the synopsis has sold me - hook, line and sinker. I can't wait to get a chance to read this book and find out what the chilling secret of Anthem's family is and more about Gavin from the wrong side of town. Who is also eagerly awaiting this title just as I am?
