The Queen Has to Die.
Leah never understood why her mom and aunt made them move so much. Or why her family of freaks could extend vines from their wrists. After getting caught shoplifting, again, Leah is forced to start over in a new town and high school. The friends she makes bring her understanding of the world around her crashing down. They're like her. And they aren't ... human.
Digging deeper, Leah finds the answers her mom kept from her all these years. Her dad didn't die in a tragic accident. He was a king, murdered by his sister to steal his throne. Fleeing a besieged palace and pregnant with Leah, her mom turned to the human world, where they were forced to live in hiding.
Wanting justice for her parents and the kingdom they once ruled over, and yearning to know how it feels to be amongst people like herself in a realm flooded with energy, Leah forms a plan.
Her ticket to learning how to enter the Green Lands, how to use her powers, and how to get in close proximity to the murderous queen-is one of her new friends. He may be handsome and sweet, but Leah's objective is clear. Date him. Get an invite to his brother's wedding, which the queen will be attending. Take care of business.
The queen has to die.
