Synopsis

A sacred oath, a fallen angel, a forbidden love...

Romance was not part of Nora Grey's plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how hard her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch comes along. With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Patch draws Nora to him against her better judgment.

But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure whom to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is and seems to know more about her than her closest friends. She can't decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.

For she is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those that have fallen - and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost Nora her life.

Praise for Hush, Hush:
'A fast-paced, exhilarating read... bad boy Patch is genuinely, even unsettlingly, seductive - fans of paranormal romance should be rapt.'
- Publisher's Weekly
'Well written, lovingly crafted, with a savvy protagonist with a love interest so quirky and unpredictable it is going to have the reader with their heart in their mouth the whole way.'  - Falcata Times
'The story is well-paced and I didn't guess what was going on so found myself hooked to discover the truth... I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish it!' - The Bookbag
'It's this layer of suspense and darkness that separates Hush, Hush from many other young adult novels.' - Bookgeeks
'A powerful and hypnotic first novel that delights and terrifies with every turn.' Teen Librarian.co.uk

The first book in the bestselling Hush, Hush saga by Becca Fitzpatrick, author of Black Ice and Dangerous Lies.
