"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Goodreads Description:
Not all fairy tales end happily ever after in this Cinderella-inspired fantasy by the bestselling author of Daughter of the Moon Goddess—for fans of Renée Ahdieh, Tahereh Mafi, and Stephanie Garber.
Life
in the Iron Mountains is harsh and unforgiving. After the death of her
beloved uncle, Yining has survived by becoming a skilled thief and an
even better liar. When she acquires an enchanted ring that holds the key
to a brighter future, it is stolen by her step-aunt, and Yining must
venture into the imperial heart of the kingdom to seize it back.
Amid
the grandeur of the palace, Yining catches the eye of the ruthless and
ambitious prince, who tempts her with a world she’s never imagined. But
nothing is as it seems, for she’s soon trapped in a tangle of power,
treachery, and greed—her only ally the cunning advisor from a rival
court who keeps dangerous secrets of his own. To break free, she must
unravel the mystery of her past and fight for a future that both
frightens and calls to her.
This sweeping fantasy romance inspired by Cinderella and a Chinese fairy tale is the first in a breathtaking new series by the acclaimed author of Daughter of the Moon Goddess.
