Wind Flowers

A lost thief in need of a cure. A lonely princess in search of a cause.

A continent on the brink of chaos.

Shin Koishi learned long ago how to listen to the language of the wind. Living in the dregs of Hiku City, the seedy capital of the Sora air kingdom, Shin always provided for his sickly little sister and the band of scrappy young orphans called the Lost Ones by stealing, swearing, and living on the back of a breeze.

Princess Catirina of Dunyas, on the other hand, has never left the ornate Anastova Palace walls, a sheltered flower barely given the sunlight to bloom. After years of grieving her deceased brother in silken solitude, the time has come for Irina to be married off to the first prince her oppressive parents deem worthy enough to rule their kingdom-and her.

But when Shin steals from the wrong princeling, he catapults himself into the dark world of the corrupt nobility. To save his sister, he must become their political pawn- and kidnap the reclusive Princess during the annual masquerade ball. And when Irina is offered the opportunity to flee her gilded cage, her whole world is turned upside down. As they both navigate unfamiliar terrain, avoid terror around every corner, and uncover dark secrets buried throughout the continent of Babylon, they discover a destiny-and a history-entwined. And the fates of their friends, their families, and their kingdoms rest on whether they blow apart like dandelion flowers in the wind...or learn to soar together.
