Marissa Allen

Born Royal Marissa Allen

Imprisoned and experimented on since she was twelve, Princess Genevieve "Vi" Astor is ready for revenge. After manipulating her way to the throne of Kabria, Queen Esmerelda caused the death of the king and kept Vi as a royal hostage. For six years, the queen poked and prodded her stepdaughter. The world thinks she's ill, but Vi's childhood friends know better. Working with the Rebels, they break her free. The Rebels, however, have their own motives and are calling the shots. Vi knows the corruption of power firsthand. And when she discovers the secret they've all been hiding from her, she finds she doesn't know whom she can trust. As war begins, Vi is forced to decide if she'll join the Rebels against the queen or take her newfound freedom and run. Perfect for fans of Legend by Marie Lu, Graceling by Kristin Cashore, and The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer.
