1532. Santo Domingo de la Calzada.
A young girl grows up wild and wily--her beauty is only outmatched by her dreams of escape. But María knows she can only ever be a prize, or a pawn, in the games played by men. When an alluring stranger offers an alternate path, María makes a desperate choice. She vows to have no regrets.
This is a story about love.

A young woman lives an idyllic but cloistered life on her family's estate, until a moment of forbidden intimacy sees her shipped off to London. Charlotte's tender heart and seemingly impossible wishes are swept away by an invitation from a beautiful widow--but the price of freedom is higher than she could have imagined. This is a story about rage.

Praise for this book
Praise for The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue:
"Completely absorbed me enough to make me forget the real world." -- Jodi Picoult "A dizzying kaleidoscopic adventure." -- Naomi Novik "Perfectly suspended between darkness and light, myth and reality." -- Alix E. Harrow "One of the most propulsive, compulsive and captivating novels in recent memory." -- The Washington Post "Epic yet intimate, sweeping but not sprawling... As we live through these darkened days, I feel brighter for having added Addie to mine." -- Slate "Warm and intense... I rooted for Addie throughout."-- The New York Times Book Review "Beautifully explores what it means to be alone." -- USA Today "Irresistibly contagious." -- Locus Magazine "An achingly poignant romantic fantasy about the desperate desire to make one's mark on the world." -- Oprah.com "The kind of book you encounter only once in a lifetime." -- Peng Shepherd
