Publisher's summary

NOW A HIT NETFLIX MOVIE • The bestselling international sensation and viral TikTok phenomenon—a dark, sexy, haunting novel of two aching young adults who are taken in by the same family and forced to reckon with a destructive love that could be the undoing of them both

“Ready for the next Twilight?”—People

Growing up in a ghastly orphanage run by an abusive matron, Nica coped in the only way she could—by retreating to her imagination, where she lived out fantastical stories, especially about the Tearsmith, the man who makes tears, a terrifying figure who forges all the fears that dwell in people’s hearts.

When she’s finally taken in by an adoptive family at seventeen, Nica thinks she’s leaving the group home, its torments, and her prison of otherworldly tales behind her. That is, until Rigela young man raised from birth in the same dreadful orphanagejoins her new family.

Rigel is as mesmerizingly handsome as he is troubled, and he and Nica have a long history of distrust and hostility. But as they come to live together again under one roof, the deep shared trauma of surviving such vicious circumstances sparks something magical, and Nica begins to fall for Rigel’s forbidden love.

Before any relationship can become reality, though, they’ll have to face the darkness of their past . . . and the dangerous stakes of pursuing a future together.

Monotonous

I wanted to listed to this 20+ hour book before I watched the much shorter movie. Now I understand why so much of the book was cut. It droned on and on and on. Were they paid by the word? Many beautiful, unnecessary words.

Love story

There’s always a happy ending. Great book. Definitely better than the movie. Wish they would have made a tv mini series.

The best

Where has this book been? It was one of the best I’ve listened to in a very long time. It took several days to get through, but I never felt like any part was repetitive. The narrator’s Rigel voice was perfect, but it worked.
