Book Synopsis

A smile, a dance, some flirtatious banter--and witty heiress Luciana Piccolo was swept off her feet. Literally.

When a mysterious, gorgeous woman whisks her onto the dance floor at her father's masquerade ball, Lucy is thrilled to break the shackles of her privileged but purposeless life. But when the same woman kidnaps her and whisks her to the hideout of the rebels fighting to topple the regime she's set to inherit, Lucy isn't thrilled to be actually shackled as a prisoner. She is forced to accompany her abductor--a laconic, rigid assassin named Taylor--across the war-torn regions of the former United States as Taylor carries out perilous assassinations and leads the growing rebel army.

Relying on each other to stay alive, the antagonistic spark between Lucy and Taylor smolders into an ardent flame. Secrets unravel and the stakes get fatally higher, as the battle between new love and old loyalty may prove more dangerous than the war they're trying to survive.

Review Quotes

Wow, what a ride! In this powerful and well executed long novel the author imagined a dark dystopian future for America. It's so well paced that makes you want to just keep reading. There is a lot of action, energy and tension packed in it, but also a lot of emotions. Both the plot and the character development are excellent, and O'Shea has managed to give a strong message to all of us. Her next book can't come soon enough. Highly recommended!-Emma A., NetGalley
