American Royals meets The Winnerâs Curse in the first book of a new YA duology from New York Times bestselling author Brittany Cavallaro, set in an alternate history American monarchy where a girl grapples for control of her own life in the middle of a looming war.
The year is 1893, and war is brewing in the First American Kingdom. But Claire Emerson has a bigger problem. While her father prepares to reveal the mighty weapon heâs created to showcase the might of their province, St. Cloud, in the Worldâs Fair, Claire is crafting a plan to escape.
Claireâs father is a sought-after inventor, but he believes his genius is a gift, granted to him by his daughterâs touch. Heâs kept Claire under his control for years. As St. Cloud prepares for war, Claire plans to claim her life for herself, even as her best friend, Beatrix, tries to convince her to stay and help with the growing resistance movement that wants to see a woman on the throne. At any cost.
When her fatherâs weapon fails to fire on the fairâs opening day, Claire is taken captive by Governor Remy Duchamp, St. Cloudâs young, untried ruler. Remy believes that Claireâs touch bestows graces heâs never had, and with his governing power weakening and many political rivals planning his demise, Claire might be his only and best ally. But the last thing that Claire has ever wanted is to be someone elseâs muse. Still, affections can change as quickly as the winds of war. And Claire has a choice to make: Will she quietly remake her world from the shadowsâor bring it down in flames?
