About the book
About A Tempest of Roses
Smile when it hurts. Tell the convenient truth. Don’t disrupt the oligarchy—no matter what. These are the rules by which Lady Analora was raised, the rules that protect her family and its legacy. They protect her baby sister, Sophia—until the night her faulty heart stops beating. Face to face with death, Analora writes a new rule: anything for Sophia. But it isn’t the oligarchy that responds to her command—it’s the wind. Quick and cold and life-giving. Sophia wakes. Determined to gain full control of the wind, Analora grows more powerful than her parents ever could’ve imagined. Fearful of her gift, they send her away, across the mountains and to the home of her long-lost cousin, Princess Zana. All Analora wants is a chance to prove that she and her power are good. When she’s given an opportunity to foster peace between her cousin’s kingdom of Aysu and the neighboring valley of Akemi, she accepts it without question. But the Akemians desire more than empty goodwill. With the help of her newfound family members and the disarming captain of their guard, Analora must tear down the walls of her old life and allow light and truth to show her the way home.
