Title: Whisper
Author: Heather Hildenbrand
Release Date: 19th April 2012
Published by: Accendo Press
Genre: YA, Fantasy
Edition: E'ARC      

Goodreads Description:

The Cherokee believe when a person dies, their soul is reborn. Life is repeated. An endless cycle of lessons to be learned, love to be found, destiny to be fulfilled. For the past six months, in every flower, every bird, I’ve imagined my parents, relieved of their human forms.
Now, after five months at the Skye View Wellness Center, it was summer. A time for parties and friends, but that’s the last thing I want to do. So when my best friend Erin convinces me to attend a bonfire at Eagle Point, I can’t handle the crowd full of sympathetic stares or drunken class clowns who would use my tragedy as a way into my heart – or my pants. The solitude of the woods offers an escape, until I stumble upon a boy, unconscious and bleeding, his pockets stuffed not with identification but with poetry illustrating the beauty of dying. I’ve seen enough death. I will not leave this boy’s side.

Even after he wakes, when the only thing he can remember are visions of events that haven’t happened yet…


My Rating:  A MUST READ!!!


My Review: I was lucky enough to recieve this book for review from the Author, I was so excited since I'm a huge fan of Heather Hildenbrand's Dirty Blood Series.

Heather truly know's how to capture her readers from the very first page and keep them on the edge of their seats through the whole book.

Right from the very beginning your taken on an emotional ride, I myself have never suffered such a loss but for Whisper to have suffered such a tragic loss and still find the courage she needed, it's just amazing. With Heather's unique writing style you truly could feel the emotion pouring from the pages, I was brought to tears many times. Here's a little something to go on...

"I stood on the porch, trying not to look at the police cruisers parked in the driveway. And when I did look at them, I tried not to let the memories come. But that was like trying to stop water with your hands. Enough of it got through that you were going to get wet."

Just amazing! *sniffles* wait till you keep reading!

The Cherokee legends and rituals were very interesting to read about and the way Heather's weaved them into the story well, you truly do learn something new everyday.

I absolutely LOVED this book, I'd recommend it to anyone that loves to read something new and exciting, it truly is a page turner. Heather has just blown me away again!  :)

Here's a little teaser...

“How would you know I was there?”

His gaze locked on mine and I stilled, barely able to breathe. All trace of laughter disappeared from his expression. His stare was heavy to the point of paralyzing.

“My soul would recognize you and wake me.” His voice was gravelly and low, barely above a whisper, but it filled my ears and raced straight to my heart. I felt a keen familiarity with this moment and with Dylan himself. It was more than déjà vu. It was something inside me recognizing something inside him.

*sigh* gets the heart pumping, believe me! *winks*

About the Author:

I am a twenty something wife and mother of two - almost three - adorable children. I live in coastal Virginia and I work from home, part time, as a property manager. I write YA Paranormal Romance and I read it, too, so if you know of a great book/series, feel free to suggest it.
When I'm not writing or reading, I'm helping the hubby with DIY projects in our home (he woodworks – I paint) or I'm lying on the beach, soaking in those delicious, pre-cancerous rays.

I love Mexican food, hate socks with sandals, and if my house was on fire, the one thing I’d grab is my DVR player.

Favorite movies: Newsies and Little Rascals
Favorite authors: Richelle Mead, Warren Murphy, Cassandra Clare
Favorite bands: Kings of Leon, Blue October, Sea Wolf, Paramore
