En este poemario, y por primera vez, el corazón de Rayden toma la palabra
«Llamé durante mucho tiempo "amor" a lugares que no lo eran, engañándome con la complacencia y el falso sentido de pertenencia; convencido de que el callo que había creado sería amarre suficiente para poder mantener el dolor a raya sin saber que, paradójicamente, en lo que tiene que ver con la emoción, lo mismo que te sujeta, te ata.»
The Red Tigress, Anastacya Mikhailov, has lost the gift she was only beginning to realize defined her. Stolen from her during the battle in Bregon, her blood Affinity rests with Sorsha Farrald, a dangerous Affinite who is on the run, headed straight to Cyrilia and to Ana's aunt . . . the Empress Morganya.
Thought she is weakened, Ana and her course remain true—yet her return to her homeland reveals a Cyrilia on the brink of collapse. Morganya's tyrannical rule has transformed into a sinister quest for unquestioned authority, and she has set her sights far beyond Cyrilia. Morganya seeks a legendary ancient power, rumored to have once belonged to the Deities themselves. If she can locate it, she can rule the world.
What's more, Ana's allies, the insurgent Affinite rebels known as the Redcloaks, no longer support her. For their allegiance is with the people—and there can be no equality with a monarchy.
Ana faces enemies at every turn, and every day without her Affinity brings her closer to death. Yet she is determined to liberate her people and vanquish the legacy of her own imperial bloodline—the inequality sewn into the fabric of her land. Her only hope lies in the navy she recruited in Bregon, the courage of her band of friends, and the cunning crime-lord-turned-captain she's fallen for.
If Ana loses this fight, it will be her last. And Morganya's reign of darkness with consume the world.
Ray: Just once I’d like my birthday to be about me, and not the day my father died. I want to be Ray Jr., the tall girl from Memphis with the poetry beats and the braids that stay poppin’. And when I meet Orion at the skating rink, that’s exactly who I am. He pulls my hand, and instead of being defined by my past, he races me toward my future.
Orion: When I dive into the pool, it’s just me and my heartbeat. There’s no dad, no dead sister, and no distracting noises. But I can’t hold my breath forever. And since I met Ray, I don’t want to. The closer we get, though, the more I see I’m not the only one caught in her wake.
With a lyrical blend of found poetry and poignant prose, this stunning debut captures young Black love and a decades-old family secret that may shatter a romance that feels written in the stars.

Callum ya no está. Su mente ha desaparecido para siempre contagiada por la bacteria que portan todos los hombres. Pero no se ha ido del todo. Su cuerpo sigue ahí, justo frente a ella, recordándole lo maravilloso que fue conocerle, enamorarse de él y lo terrible que ha sido perderle. Amanda siente que le ha fallado a Callum.

A veces la guerra es la única respuesta.
