The dazzling sequel to the New York Times bestselling THE BELLES from the author of TINY PRETTY THINGS (coming to Netflix soon)
The Belles control beauty.
All our lives, my sisters and I have served the people of Orleans.
For years, they’ve held their abilities against us. Not anymore.
Now the queen hunts us for what we know about the rightful heir.
They murdered our princess and fled the city.
The princess is still alive, and we’ll help her take back the throne.
They’ll return and give us what we deserve: beauty, everlasting.
We will demand our freedom.
No matter what the cost.
