Fragile Spirits by Mary Lindsey
Publish Date: January 23, 2014
Publisher: Philomel

I read the first book in this series a while back and really liked it. I'm excited to read this one. Apparently, it's more of a companion so you don't need to read the first book.

Paul has always known he was a Protector, fated to serve a Speaker who could hear the voices of spirits lingering after death and help those souls find peace.

Vivienne ignores the voices of the dead.

Paul has always followed the Protector’s rule book, preparing diligently for the day when he’d be matched with his Speaker and fulfill his destiny.

Vivienne never does what she’s told.

So when Paul is matched with Vivienne, they both find the pairing less than satisfactory. But a kidnapping, a malevolent spirit and power stronger than both of them may just prove that they are two halves of the same whole.

In a stunning story about the beauty of fate and the power of secrets, Mary Lindsey returns to the world of Shattered Souls with a breathtaking thrill-ride of a novel.

**Note from author: This book begins one month after Shattered Souls leaves off. Lenzi and Alden are featured in this book, but reading Shattered Souls is not a prerequisite.

  6. Such a pretty cover! I love that this is a companion book too, I sometimes dread reading sequels even if I loved the first book because it takes me so long to really remember what happened, so I'm excited that this book starts new but in the same world. Can't wait!

  11. Haven't heard of this series but it sounds really good. Kind of reminds me of Soulbound by Heather Brewer just in the pairing relationship. In that book there are Barrons and Healers that are Bound to each other. Great pick! Thanks for sharing and stopping by my blog!
