A swoony romantic fantasy by the New York Times best-selling author of The Half King, now available in paperback with a stunning new cover!
In this captivating YA fantasy, Talia must solve a multigenerational mystery and break a curse, all while being torn between making her family proud and regaining the trust of the boy she loves.
Boarding school student Talia Morris has no idea her boyfriend, Nathaniel, is a Mystic, let alone second in line to the throne of a secretive, aspirational magical community—one no mortal has ever been allowed to step inside. Until now. Nathaniel’s cousin is about to be married in the biggest wedding the magical world has ever seen, and Nathaniel is allowed to bring a date. Even though Talia thinks Mystic worship unnecessarily aggrandizes people for being born a certain way, she loves Nathaniel. So when he begs her to give his family and their community a shot, she reluctantly agrees.
Enter the most fantastical world any mortal has ever seen, and a magical wedding straight out of a dream. After a few days of bonding with Nathaniel’s family on the island, of seeing how beautiful their magic is and how peaceful their community, Talia’s about to be won over—until the entire wedding party suddenly falls into an unexplainable coma and the community goes into lockdown. Talia, the outsider, is pegged as the culprit and has to do everything in her meager non-power to prove her innocence. As she embarks on a journey to find the truth, Talia soon discovers reality is not all it seems, and her past may put her in more danger than she ever imagined.
Teeming with suspense and reverie, Lumara is perfect for fans of Kingdom of the Wicked and We Were Liars!
