A fast-paced international escapade, laced with adrenaline, glamour, and romance--perfect for fans of Ally Carter
Avery West's newfound family can shut down Prada when they want to shop in peace, and can just as easily order a bombing when they want to start a war. Part of a powerful and dangerous secret society called the Circle, they believe Avery is the key to an ancient prophecy. Some want to use her as a pawn. Some want her dead.
To unravel the mystery putting her life in danger, Avery must follow a trail of clues from the monuments of Paris to the back alleys of Istanbul with two boys who work for the Circle—beautiful, volatile Stellan and mysterious, magnetic Jack. But as the clues expose a stunning conspiracy that might plunge the world into World War 3, she discovers that both boys are hiding secrets of their own. Now she will have to choose not only between freedom and family--but between the boy who might help her save the world, and the one she's falling in love with.
Now on to the playlist!
I love listening to music while I write. I have songs that go
with specific scenes, songs that are action-y or romantic and that I can use
for a variety of writing, songs that really speak to something going on in the
story, and songs that just feel like the right mood. These are a few of the
songs I find myself listening to over and over.
Shattered by OAR
Supermassive Black Hole by Muse
Tear You Apart by She Wants Revenge
The Beautiful People by Marilyn Manson
Just Tonight by The Pretty Reckless
Stay (feat. Mikky Ekko) by Rihanna
Cosmic Love by Florence and the Machine
Also, a lovely reader named Sue has just recently put together a playlist of her own, and I love it and am
listening to it all the time. So pretty! Here’s her playlist: http://8tracks.com/rykemeadows/the-conspiracy-of-us
