If anyone can fit a riveting plot line and character development into one book, they are genius! Lynn Rush did just that. When I started reading I kept telling myself I needed a break - but with 86 degree weather and a bathing suit I said heck with it! I now have a little sunburn to prove the Wasteland Trilogy books consume you. I want to relate her writing style to one of Richelle Mead or Kim Harrison ... I think it is because of the depth she adds to the characters. I know I love a book when I am left to think about what will happen or why the story was ended the way it did, often later while I am brushing my teeth or cooking dinner. Lynn did just that! I can't wait until the 3rd book!

Lynn Rush is the genre-breaking author of Crescent Moon Press’s (New
York City, NY) newest category – New Adult. Rush’s novels center on
young adulthood – New Adult protagonists are most likely in the range of
18 to 26 years old. In fact, Rush’s protagonists are male and the story
is seen through their eyes with strong characterization, well developed
plots and action-packed storylines.
Rush says she writes paranormal romances for the New Adult audience because it is what interests her. While New Adult fiction may not be the "hot and heavy" romance featured in novels for adults, it’s a touch warmer than the “sweet” romance of the young adult novels.

“There’s a lot that can happen when you’re eighteen or even twenty five years old. The fact is that those same events feel very different at that age than they do when you are twelve years old – or forty years old,” explained Rush. “Because I write Paranormal romance, sometimes my characters are centuries old - but their human contacts are in the new adult age range.”

For a slave, hope is a dangerous thing.
Margaret Rousseau dreams of freedom from a life of
servitude. When a mysterious woman saunters into the servants’ tavern promising
the impossible, Margaret dares to hope she could win the heart of the one man
she has secretly coveted since she first wore a corset... The
Prince. Margaret desperately grasps for the opportunity to
change her bleak destiny by placing faith in a woman who is not as forthcoming
as she seems. Blinded to the stranger’s dark motives, Margaret surrenders
herself to gain her heart’s desires. But her choice may bring forth a darkness that could
destroy all she holds dear.

Trista, Great review. With the Memorial Weekend hope lots saw this because you are very succient in your descriptions. I totally understood what you meant ... Rush's writing makes me think about the characters and their stories long after I first finished Wasteland and then Awaited.
