SINOPSIS
'An unputdownable fairy tale' Kerri Maniscalco, New York Times bestselling author of Kingdom of the Wicked
From the 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of the Caraval series, the first book in a new series about love, curses, and the lengths that people will go to for happily ever after.
For as long as she can remember, Evangeline Fox has believed in happily ever after. Until she learns that the love of her life is about to marry another, and her dreams are shattered.
Desperate to stop the wedding, and heal her wounded heart, Evangeline strikes a deal with the charismatic, but wicked, Prince of Hearts. In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.
But after Evangeline's first promised kiss, she learns that bargaining with an immortal is a dangerous game - and that the Prince of Hearts wants far more from her than she pledged. He has plans for Evangeline, plans that will either end in the greatest happily ever after, or the most exquisite tragedy . . .
GARBER STEPHANIE
Stephanie Garber nació el 8 de julio de 1987 en Carolina del Norte y es una autora estadounidense de literatura juvenil reconocida por crear la trilogía Caraval, compuesta por Caraval, Legendary y Finale. Durante su etapa universitaria y de posgrado trabajó como barista, mesera, representante de servicio al cliente y consejera en campamentos temáticos, experiencias que enriquecieron su visión creativa. Tras varios rechazos su cuarta novela, una space opera, captó el interés de un agente, pero fue la publicación de Caraval la que la catapultó al éxito, manteniéndose quince semanas en la lista de bestsellers del New York Times, traduciéndose en 25 idiomas y vendiendo derechos cinematográficos a Twentieth Century Fox. Garber no planificó inicialmente convertir Caraval en una saga ni enfocarla como romance, pero pronto surgieron las secuelas Legendary y Finale, alcanzando Legendary el puesto número uno en la lista del New York Times durante ocho semanas. Además de Caraval, ha publicado la trilogía Érase una vez un corazón roto, que fue traducida al español por Ediciones Urano bajo el sello Puck, y actualmente imparte clases de escritura creativa en el norte de California, donde también gestiona un blog y colabora con plataformas literarias. Cuando no está escribiendo se mantiene en contacto cercano con sus lectores a través de redes sociales y su obra se ha traducido a múltiples idiomas, consolidándola como una de las voces más influyentes de la ficción juvenil contemporánea.
