Description
Sabriel meets Romeo and Juliet in this stunning and atmospheric YA fantasy romance novel—the first in a duology—from the author of Cruel Beauty and Crimson Bound. When the mysterious fog of the Ruining crept over the world, the living died and the dead rose. Only the walled city of Viyara was left untouched. The heirs of the city's most powerful—and warring—families, Mahyanai Romeo and Juliet Catresou, are star-crossed lovers who share a love deeper than duty, honor, even life itself. But the magic laid on the Juliet at birth compels her to punish the enemies of her clan—and Romeo has just killed her cousin Tybalt. Which means he must die. Paris Catresou has always wanted to serve his family by guarding the Juliet. But when his ward tries to escape her fate, magic goes terribly wrong—killing her and leaving Paris bound to Romeo in a magical twist of forced proximity. If he wants to discover the truth of what happened, Paris must delve deep into the city, ally with his worst enemy . . . and perhaps turn against his own clan. Mahyanai Runajo only wants to protect her city—but she's the only one who believes it's in peril. In her desperate hunt for information, she accidentally pulls Juliet from the mouth of death—and finds herself bound to the bitter, angry girl. Runajo quickly discovers Juliet might be the one person who can help her recover the secret to saving Viyara. Both pairs will find friendship where they least expect it. Both will find that Viyara holds more secrets and dangers than anyone ever expected. And outside the walls, death is waiting. . . .- A Romeo and Juliet Retelling: In the last walled city, a love deeper than life itself is put to the test when Romeo kills Juliet's cousin, and a magical compulsion demands she kill him in return.- Necromancer Fantasy: When the mysterious Ruining fog crept over the world, the living died and the dead rose as ravenous revenants. Now, an accidental act of magic pulls Juliet from the mouth of death, binding her to a stranger.- Enemies to Lovers Dynamics: Two unlikely pairs are magically bound together-a loyal guard to his clan's greatest enemy, and a desperate novice to the bitter, angry girl she resurrected.- Found Family: Forcibly allied by their strange magical bonds, they must uncover Viyara's secrets before the city's failing walls give way to the hungry dead outside.
