--------------------------
A magical city divided. A political rebellion ignited. A love that was meant to last forever.
Seventeen-year-old Aria Rose is the youngest scion of one of Manhattan’s two ruling families, and betrothed to Thomas Foster, a son of the other family—her parents’ sworn enemies. The families are ending their long feud: Aria and Thomas are to be married, and Thomas’ older brother, Garland, will likely be selected as the city’s new mayor.
Only she doesn’t remember any of that. She wakes one day to find her memory riddled with gaps and her life strange. Aria has no memory of ever meeting Thomas Foster, let alone falling in love with him. And why have her parents agreed to unite with the Fosters?
Soon Aria begins to unravel the dark secrets that fuel the city, and the immense role her family plays in denying equality for all. When she meets Hunter, a gorgeous rebel who holds the key to unlocking her past, she must choose between love and family, happiness and duty. Her choice can save or doom all of Manhattan—including herself.
