Avenged - Paperback

by Amy Tintera (Author)

With the romance of The Selection and the epic stakes of Red Queen, Amy Tintera's New York Times-bestselling Ruined trilogy continues with the thrilling young adult fantasy Avenged, now in paperback.

Emelina Flores has come home to Ruina. After rescuing her sister, Olivia, from imprisonment in rival kingdom Lera, Em and Olivia together vow to rebuild Ruina to its former glory.

But their fight has only begun. Olivia is determined to destroy everyone who acts against Ruina. Em isn't as sure. Ever since Em posed as Prince Casimir's betrothed in Lera, she's started to see another side to this war. And now that Cas has taken the throne, Em believes a truce is within reach. But Olivia suspects that Em's romantic feelings for Cas are just coloring her judgement.

Em is determined to bring peace to her home. But when winning the war could mean betraying her family, Em faces an impossible choice between loyalty and love. Em must stay one step ahead of her enemies--and her blood--before she's the next victim in this battle for sovereignty.

Two sisters. One throne. A kingdom hanging in the balance.

• Sisters Who Rule: After rescuing her sister Olivia, Emelina proposes they rule their broken kingdom together. But one sister craves peace while the other demands vengeance.
• Enemies to Lovers: Posing as Prince Casimir's betrothed was supposed to be a lie, but Em's feelings for the enemy king are all too real--and could be a fatal weakness.
• Political Intrigue: A fragile truce is on the table, but with rival factions, a usurper threatening the throne, and shifting alliances, peace may cost more than war.
• An Impossible Choice: To save her home, Em might have to betray her own sister. Her choice will determine the fate of Ruina--and her own heart.
