LITERATURE + LECTURES

Friday, October 14 at 7:00pm, Blue Willow Bookshop presents Melissa de la Cruz.  Melissa de la Cruz will discuss and sign LOST IN TIME, the next book in the Blue Bloods series.

The epic sixth installment in Melissa de la Cruz’s New York Times and USA Today best-selling Blue Bloods series. After their beautiful yet brief bonding ceremony in Italy, Schuyler Van Alen and Jack Force are forced to separate. But on the day that Jack is to leave for New York, Schuyler convinces him that only together can they find a way to break his bond with Mimi. They travel to Egypt to search for Catherine of Siena and the Gate of Promise, but soon discover that the Gate is not all that it seems, and Jack cannot put off his destiny any longer. But instead of a bitter reunion, he is faced with an impossible choice.

Mimi, with a most unexpected travel companion in Oliver Hazard-Perry, jets off to Egypt, too, to search for Kingsley Martin, her long lost love. With all roads leading to Hell, Mimi learns that not all love stories have happy endings. But she'll have to put her own feelings aside if she's going to save her crumbling Coven.

Meanwhile in the past, a twenty year-old Allegra Van Alen prepares for her bonding, only to re-encounter her first human familiar, Stephen Bendix Chase, an artist in San Francisco. She finds herself drawn to Ben, and begins to question everything about her immortal life, including the secrets Charles has been keeping for centuries.

Packed with heartache, twists, vampiric folklore and angel mythology, LOST IN TIME is sure to satisfy hungry fans' cravings for more Blue Bloods adventure.

Melissa de la Cruz is the author of many best-selling novels, including the six books in the Blue Bloods series: Blue Bloods, Masquerade, Revelations, The Van Alen Legacy, Misguided Angel, and Lost in Time (Sept, 2011); the Au Pairs series; the Ashleys series; and Angels on Sunset Boulevard. She lives in Los Angeles, California with her husband and daughter, and is hard at work on the next book in the Blue Bloods saga. Melissa is not a Blue Blood, but she knows people who are . . . .
