Publisher's summary

With a price on her head, the evil Queen Sophia out for blood, and no idea who to trust, Camellia Beaureguard, the former favorite Belle, must race against time to find the ailing Princess Charlotte, who has disappeared without a trace. Sophia's imperial forces will stop at nothing to keep Camille, her sister, Edel, and her loyal guard, Remy, from returning Charlotte to the palace and her rightful place as queen.

With the help of an underground resistance movement called the Iron Ladies - a society that rejects beauty treatments entirely - and the backing of alternative newspaper The Spider's Web, Camille uses her powers, her connections, and her cunning to outwit her greatest nemesis, Sophia, and attempt to restore peace to Orleans. But enemies lurk in the most unexpected places, forcing Camille to decide just how much she's willing to sacrifice to save her people.

A Booklist pick of the day. A Tor.com reviewers' choice of this winter's upcoming young-adult SFF books.

couldn't stop listening!

Rosie Jones gives such a characteristic performance and brings to life the self absorbed over indulgent populace that Dhonielle Clayton so beautifully created

“Pretty Hurts”

I liked how art imitates life. People may judge the characters in this fictional world; however, they need to hold up the mirror of truth to their own faces. Everyone has more power than they know. There is always other layers to reveal. This series is captivating and transformative.

This is what a sequel should always be!

Ms. Clayton truly transported us to the world of Orlean as we start with the events from the last book. She did an excellent job getting the reader up to speed, all while introducing important players to the mix. The flow of events was much better in this book and the levels of conflict were well balanced. I truly loved this book, more than the first one, and I look forward to reading about our favorite warrior Edel!

awesome part two, as magical as the first

perhaps a little repetitive at times it was still a great part two to The Belles with the same rich, expansive world and attaching heroine... though I think Charlotte is my favorite character just because of how amazing the narrator is at giving her a voice of her own. 10/10 great antagonist
