Everlasting by Angie Frazier (Published by Scholastic, June 1, 2010)
Sailing aboard her father's ship is all seventeen-year-old Camille Rowen has ever wanted. But as a lady in 1855 San Francisco, her future is set: marry a man she doesn't love in order to preseve her social standing. On her last voyage before the wedding, Camille learns the mother she has always believed dead is in fact alive and in Australia. When their Sydney-bound ship goes down in a gale, and her father dies, Camille sets out to find her mother and a map in her possession - a map believed to lead to a stone that once belonged to the legendary civilization.
Everlasting is a book I've been dying to read since I first heard about it months ago. I love historical fiction, especially historical fiction with romance and adventure mixed in. I really really really want to read it and I'm excited to finally see the cover. I'm a bit embarassed to be SQUEE-ing this much but it really does sound amazing! I think it is the 2010 new release I want to read the most right now.
