About this item
Welcome to Luna Island by Kiana Krystle is a spellbinding tale where "Hades and Persephone" intertwines with "Phantom of the Opera," set in a world richly painted in hues of violet, magenta, and deep blood red. This debut novel tantalizes with a sensually rendered landscape of intrigue and sensory indulgence.
Lila Rose Li arrives at her aunt's quaint cottage on Luna Island, a haven of sparkling blue waters and rose-adorned boutiques, with her dreams in tatters. Once a striving ballerina, her aspirations crumbled after a collapse on stage led to a violent outburst. Now, exiled, she battles the belief that she—a self-proclaimed natural disaster—deserves anything gentle or good.
As the island prepares for its revered Angel of the Sea pageant, Lila resolves to stay out of the limelight. Yet, the island's enigmatic lore piques her curiosity. Once a failing fishing village, Luna Island was miraculously transformed by the blessings of angels, leading to the establishment of the pageant—a quest to crown a High Priestess for their commune. The victor is showered with love and adoration, deemed the ultimate blessing.
However, the recent history of the pageant is marred by mystery: the previous Angel of the Sea reigned for only one year instead of the customary seven. An unsettling presence haunts the island, disrupting the delicate balance the pageant is meant to preserve. An eerie voice from the ocean's depths beckons Lila, making her fear she's its next target. To uncover the island's dark secrets and protect herself, she must enter and win the pageant. But can a girl who sees herself as monstrous ever hope to be crowned by angels?
In her enchanting debut, Kiana Krystle weaves a lush, sinister blend of paranormal mystery and mythology. Welcome to Luna Island is a fairytale of forbidden romance and dark secrets, chronicling a teen girl's hard-fought journey toward self-acceptance and love. 📚❤️
