The Selection meets
Reign in this dazzling trilogy of interwoven novels about three girls on a
quest for freedom and true love from #1 internationally bestselling author
Richelle Mead.
"Brilliant and original, Mead’s new series starts off with a bang and will leave readers on the edge of their seats until the very end."
—School Library Journal
For a select group of girls, the Glittering Court offers a shot at a life they’ve only ever dreamed of, one of luxury, glamour, and leisure. To high-born Adelaide, whose wealthy family is forcing her into a loveless marriage, the Glittering Court represents something else: the chance to chart her own destiny, and adventure in an unspoiled, prosperous new land across the sea.
After a chance meeting with the dazzling Cedric Thorn, Adelaide poses as a servant to join the crop of impoverished girls he promises to transform into proper ladies. But her familiarity with upper class life comes with a price: she must hide her identity from her new friends, mysterious refugee Mira and fiery former laundress Tamsin, and most importantly, from Cedric himself—even though she’s falling in love with him.
Everything begins to crumble when Cedric discovers Adelaide’s ruse, and she catches the eye of a powerful young governor, who wants her for a wife. She didn’t leave the gilded cage of her old life behind just to become someone else's property. But nothing is as daunting—or as wonderful—as the potent, forbidden attraction simmering between Adelaide and Cedric. One that, if acted on, would make them both outcasts in a wild, dangerous, uncharted world, and possibly lead them to their deaths.
EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Richelle
Mead has written over twenty-five novels for teens and adults. She is the
author of the international #1 bestselling Vampire Academy series and its
spinoff series, Bloodlines. Her recent standalone novel, Soundless, draws upon
Chinese mythology and history, and her forthcoming series, The Glittering
Court, follows the adventures of girls destined for arranged marriages in a
fantasy world inspired by colonial America. A lifelong reader, Richelle has
always had a particular fascination with mythology and folklore. When she can
actually tear herself away from books (either reading or writing them), she
enjoys bad reality TV, traveling, trying interesting cocktails, and shopping
for dresses to wear on tour. She is a self-professed coffee addict, works in
her pajamas, and has a passion for all things wacky and humorous. Originally
from Michigan, Richelle now lives in Seattle, Washington, where she is hard at
work on her next novel.

ReplyDeleteThe cover is gorgeous! The synopsis sounds so exciting--secrets and romance. I have to read this and find out what happens.
ReplyDeleteSarah and Danielle, thanks for stopping by. That cover is gorgeous, which got be beyond the cover and wanting to read the synopsis and then that have me adding it to my TBR pile.
