TEARS OF FROST Paperback

Bree Barton's "Tears of Frost" is the captivating second book in the Heart of Thorns trilogy, a feminist teen fantasy that delves into a dark magical kingdom and explores themes of power, agency, and female empowerment. The story picks up after the events of the first book, with Mia Rose mysteriously back from the dead, her memories hazy and her body numb, yet driven by an urgent quest to save the boy she loves and the sister who betrayed her, by finding the mother she can never forgive. Meanwhile, Pilar, reeling from her mother's betrayal, embarks on her own hunt for revenge, a mission that unexpectedly leads her to collide with Prince Quin, the boy whose sister she killed. As Mia, Pilar, and Quin form dangerous new alliances, they find themselves drawn into the alluring yet deceptive promise of freedom offered by the snow kingdom, where nothing is quite as it seems beneath its glimmering icy facade.
