Outside the Palace of Versailles, it's modern day. Inside, the people dress, eat and act like it's the eighteenth century. The palace has every indulgence, but for one pretty young thing, it's about to become a beautiful prison. When Danica witnessed an act of murder by the young king, her mother makes a cruel power play... blackmailing the king into making Dani his queen. When she turns eighteen, Dani will marry the most ruthless and dangerous man of the court. She has six months to escape her terrifying destiny. Six months to raise enough money to disappear into the real world beyond the palace gates. Her ticket out? Glitter. A drug so powerful that a tiny pinch mixed into a pot of Rouge or lip gloss can make the wearer hopelessly addicted. Addicted to a drug Dani can for more money than she ever dreamed. But in Versailles, secrets are impossible to keep. And the most dangrouse secret - falling for a drug dealer outside the palace walls - is one risk she has to take.
This book is intense. I wasn't really buying alot of the double reality between reality and the eighteenth century but it is interesting. I'm just sorry the next book isn't out yet. This one has an unexpected ending. One you're not nearly prepared for. And that drug dealer mentioned above? There's more to him than meets the eye.
5 out of 10
