OUR RESISTANCE IS POWER
Ma’s tears wet my neck as I backed into our hut. I slumped into Pa’s chair. His smell curled around me. I breathed him in as my tears fell and anger bubbled under my skin. I was to be a Blood Moon Bride.
Rehya is a hunter with uncanny magical abilities – and magic has long been outlawed in Mennama Valley.
Every winter, on the night of the Blood Moon, young women enter forced marriages for the valley’s advancement and prosperity. But this year Governor Kyra has decreed that girls of just fifteen must become Blood Moon Brides, making Rehya eligible.
When her Pa dies, Rehya’s plans of escape evaporate and she is paraded in front of suitors on Show Day. And when she is chosen to be a bride, she lashes out.
As punishment, she is sent to the Nest. There Rehya must decide: should she submit to the life of a Blood Moon Bride, or rebel – and risk everything to fight for justice?
A powerful and fierce YA fantasy novel by the award-winning author of Living on Hope Street.
