"That stuff is imposed upon you by a world that's not ready for the beauty of who you really are."Living on a conservative colony world, Sienna Tascioni is no stranger to pushing boundaries. Constrained by what's expected of her as a proper young lady, she still reads books from classes she's not allowed to take, secretly races speeder bikes, and even dresses up as her twin brother in order to gain a small taste of independence. But when her parents allow a loutish Ambassador's son to begin courting her, she feels the trap of an arranged marriage beginning to close its jaws around her.At the same time, a diplomatic mission from the faraway planet of Satori arrives with promises of mutual cooperation and advanced technology. Ereni and Burke Lhasa, two young people attached to the mission, show Sienna a glimpse of freedom she never dreamed possible. Before she knows it, she's drawn into a web of intrigue, spying on her Senator father for information that will hopefully disrupt her upcoming engagement while drawing ever closer to the mysterious Burke.But as she becomes more deeply embroiled in the politics of her country, the stakes become higher-and more personal-than she could have ever imagined, forcing her to decide where her true loyalties lie.Author Amy Sundberg brings you the first book in the Satori Chronicles, a captivating drama in which an intrepid teenage heroine struggles against the dystopian patriarchy of her world.
