About this item
In a world where “Hades and Persephone” meets Phantom of the Opera through the evocative style of Laini Taylor, Luna Island is a sensually crafted realm teeming with intrigue and sensory indulgence.
Colors: violet, magenta, deep blood red. Themes: passion, violence, destruction.
Lila Rose Li arrives at her aunt’s cottage on Luna Island, burdened by shattered dreams. Striving for years to be the perfect ballerina her parents desired, she collapsed on stage and subsequently snapped, lashing out in fury. Exiled to this island with its crystal blue waters and rose-covered boutiques, Lila grapples with the belief that a “natural disaster” like her deserves anything good or gentle.
The islanders are abuzz with preparations for the cherished Angel of the Sea pageant. Despite her intent to remain distant, Lila’s curiosity about the island’s lore grows. Once a failing fishing village, Luna Island was supposedly blessed by angels, bringing prosperity. The pageant, a quest to find a High Priestess, promises love and adoration as the ultimate reward.
Yet, the Angel of the Sea’s term is seven years, and the previous winner vanished after just one. An eerie presence disturbs the island, unsettling the balance the pageant is meant to maintain. As an unsettling voice beckons Lila to the ocean’s depths, she fears she’s being haunted. To uncover the truth and protect herself, she must win the pageant. But how can a self-perceived monster hope to be chosen by angels?
Kiana Krystle's debut weaves forbidden romance and dark secrets in a lush, sinister blend of paranormal mystery and mythology. It's a fairytale of a teen girl's arduous journey toward self-love, rendered. ❤️📚❤️
