Inhaltsangabe

New York Times bestseller

Amy Tintera’s YA fantasy trilogy blends the romance of Kiera Cass’s Selection series and the epic stakes of Victoria Aveyard’s Red Queen in a story of revenge, adventure, and unexpected love.

Emelina Flores has nothing. Her home in Ruina has been ravaged by war; her parents were killed and her sister was kidnapped. Even though Em is only a useless Ruined―completely lacking any magic―she is determined to get revenge.

Her plan is simple: She will infiltrate the enemy’s kingdom, posing as the crown prince’s betrothed. She will lead an ambush. She will kill the king and everything he holds dear, including his son. 

The closer Em gets to the prince, though, the more she questions her mission. Her rage-filled heart begins to soften. But with her life―and her family―on the line, love could be Em’s deadliest mistake.

• Revenge Story: Emelina Flores has one goal: make the royal family of Lera pay for murdering her parents and kidnapping her sister.
• Assassin Protagonist: Posing as a princess, Em plans to get close to the king and his son... close enough to kill them both.
• Forbidden Love: The target is Prince Casimir, who is nothing like the monster she expected. As her heart softens, her mission—and her life—are thrown into jeopardy.
• Political Intrigue: With deadly secrets and warring kingdoms as the backdrop, one wrong move could lead to disaster for Em and everyone she’s fighting to protect.
