Waiting on Wednesday

Phoenix by Elizabeth Richards

Weeks after his crucifixion and rebirth as Phoenix, Ash Fisher believes his troubles are far behind him. He and Natalie are engaged and life seems good. But his happiness is short-lived when he receives a threatening visit from Purian Rose, who gives Ash an ultimatum: vote in favor of Rose’s Law permanently relegating Darklings to the wrong side of the wall or Natalie will be killed.

The decision seems obvious to Ash; he must save Natalie. But when Ash learns about The Tenth, a new and deadly concentration camp where the Darklings would be sent, the choice doesn’t seem so simple. Unable to ignore his conscience, Ash votes against Rose’s Law, signing Natalie’s death warrant and putting a troubled nation back into the throes of bloody battle.

E-excuse me? Did you say I needed to EXPLAIN why I wanted this? I'm sorry, must have heard wrong. I just LOVED Black City last year and hello? This sequel? That synopsis? THERE IS NO QUESTION. Plus apparently there's like, a love square with Elijah, so other slut  woman, Ash, and Natalie. And then this. THINGS ARE GETTING EVEN MORE INTERESTING! SQUEE!

EDIT: Hee. I may have actually gotten this. But like, I needed to tell everyone my feelings beforehand. So, like...yeah
