Author: Bethany Griffin
Pub Date: April 24, 2012

"Everything is in ruins.

A devastating plague has decimated the population. And those who are left live in fear of catching it as the city crumbles to pieces around them.

So what does Araby Worth have to live for?

Nights in the Debauchery Club, beautiful dresses, glittery make-up . . . and tantalizing ways to forget it all.

But in the depths of the club—in the depths of her own despair—Araby will find more than oblivion. She will find Will, the terribly handsome proprietor of the club. And Elliott, the wickedly smart aristocrat. Neither boy is what he seems. Both have secrets. Everyone does.

And Araby may find something not just to live for, but to fight for—no matter what it costs her"


There is just something about this cover. I can't help having it catch my eye, I'm not sure why. It's dark and eerie and almost kind of zombieish. Even though I know the book is not about zombies. It makes me want to read it and of course the synopsis is pretty intriguing.
