Get ready to be spellbound by a world of unpredictable nature, obsession, desire and SECRETS in this YA thriller series about desperately wanting to fit in.
To know the Graces is to become obsessed with them. They are glamorous, elegant and, most importantly, mysterious. So mysterious that people think they are WITCHES. And when you're in a small town at the seaside, news travels fast. It's not long before new girl River learns of them and becomes obsessed with the talk of the town, too.
The Graces are a true reminder of the Cullens in Twilight or Lena in Beautiful Creatures. Thalia is cool and collected, in a hippie-like way, Summer is a rocker who loves metal music, and Fenrin is perfectly attractive -- the object of desire of all girls in the school.
But River too has her own secrets. Her life has been riddled with loneliness and, longing desperately to be loved, she wears a mask to enter the Graces clique. The first book in the series builds up for the plot twist you could never imagine. And to follow it up, in book two we get a complete shift of POV, where the story is not told through River's unreliable narrative voice anymore, but through one of the Graces' themselves.
Fans of the Twilight Saga and Beautiful Creatures will love this teen, high school, small-town-on-the-seaside duology where things are never quite what they seem...
The brilliant author Laure Eve has also written the Fearsome Dreamer books and the Blackheart Knights duology.
