City of Halves
by Lucy Inglis

The start of this book is very Nancy Drew, but the end brings to mind Divergent!  Lily is a young woman who lives with her father in London.  She has a rare blood disorder that makes it impossible to have a blood transfusion.  Her mother has died from this disease and Lily must make regular blood transfusions so that her blood is stored in case of emergency.

Enter the handsome and enigmatic Regan, who saves Lily's life by giving her his own blood after a 'dog' attack.  This event and subsequent ones entwine the couple until Lily learns of the prophecy.

Lily and Regan work together to ward of Chaos and save London as they know it.  Lily will have to choose between the only family that she's ever known and the defense of all that is right and good in the world.  Will Chaos win?  Will Lily figure out what really happened to her mother?  Can the outcome of a prophecy be changed?

My prophecy is that City of Halves will become the next hot series, once it hits the U.S., that is!
