The Gathering by Kelley Armstrong

You all know how much I loved Kelley Armstrong's Darkest Powers Trilogy so naturally I am very excited about The Gathering.

Here is the synopsis from goodreads.com.

Maya lives in a small medical-research town on Vancouver island. How small? You can't find it on a map. It has less then two-hundred people, and her school has only sixty-eight students- for every grade kindergarten to twelve. Now strange things are happening in this claustrophobic town, and Maya is determined to get to the bottom of them. First, the captain of the swim team drowns mysteriously in the middle of a calm lake. A year later, mountain lions start appearing around Maya's home, and they won't go away. Her best friend, Daniel starts getting negative vibes from certain people and things. It doesn't help that the new bad boy in town, Rafe has a dangerous secret-and he's interested in one special part of Maya's anatomy:

her paw-print birthmark.

Looks good right? The Gathering comes out August 12, 2011.

I know its still a little far off but I just can't wait.
