In this explosive fantasy debut, a provincial girl must work with an infuriatingly handsome prince to escape a nightmarish curse that forces them to relive the same night over and over. if she can survive past midnight.. . .
It\'s up to Anaïs to untangle these knots of deadly deceptions .
But the court\'s gilded surface belies a rotten core, full of restless nobles grabbing at power, discontented commoners itching for revolution, and even royals who secretly dream of taking the throne.
If she\'s going to escape this nightmarish time loop, Anaïs must take control of her own fate and stop the attack before it happens.
And again.
And again.
Not even when it happens again.
No one else remembers the deadly attack or believes her warnings of disaster. and then she wakes up in her bedroom, hours before the ball. . .
The last thing Anaïs sees is fire, smoke, chaos .
Including her.
But at the stroke of midnight, an explosion rips through the palace, killing everyone in its path.
As an outsider at the kingdom\'s glittering anniversary ball, she has no desire to rub shoulders with the nation\'s most eligible (and pompous) bachelors--especially not the notoriously roguish Prince Leo.
The time-loop fantasy you never knew you needed, where the fairytale ball is bloody and Cinderella is the Final Girl.--Gina Chen, New York Times bestselling author of Violet Made of Thorns Seventeen-year-old Anaïs just wants tonight to end.
