Opal Trailer Reveal

I'm so excited to be a part of the trailer release for Opal by Jennifer L. Armentrout!! You guys all know this book, right?! If you don't, you need to. Opal is the third book in the Lux series, following Obsidian and Onyx. I know the books are about aliens and that could turn you off, but don't let it. Give the series a try if you haven't yet. I promise that you won't be disappointed. You can check out my review of Obsidian and Onyx here. I even used Opal as one of my WoW posts. So you know I'm excited about it!

I'm going to warn you now that the summary and the trailer for Opal have spoilers for Obsidian and Onyx, so if you haven't read them and don't want to know, turn away and go get the books! Opal will be released December 18, so you're running out of time! If you can't wait or if you've read them already, here's the book and the brand new trailer!

Opal (The third book in the Lux Series)
When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn’t fooling around. Doubting him isn’t something I’ll do again, and now that we’ve made it through the rough patches, well... There’s a lot of spontaneous combustion going on.

But even he can’t protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

After everything, I’m no longer the same Katy. I’m different... And I’m not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there is no end to what I’m capable of. The death of someone close still lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will become the deadliest of enemies, but we won’t turn back. Even if the outcome will shatter our worlds forever.

Together we’re stronger... and they know it.
