Présentation de l'éditeur :
For fans of THE HUNGER GAMES, MATCHED, and DIVERGENT, here is the second breathtaking book in Veronica Rossi's breakout NEVER SKY trilogy.
It's been months since Aria last saw Perry. Months since Perry became Blood Lord of the Tides, and Aria learned of her mother's death. And now, Aria and Perry are about to be reunited. It's a moment they've been longing for - a moment on which they've hung countless expectations. And it's a moment that lives up to all of them. At least, at first. Then it slips away.
The Tides don't take kindly to former Dwellers like Aria. And with the Aether storms worsening every day, the tribe is swirling out of Perry's control. When Aria undergoes her Marking ceremony, one traitorous tribe member poisons the ink, nearly killing her. Aria makes up her mind to leave before things get worse. On a forced mission from Consul Hess to find the Still Blue, Aria sets off with Roar in search of any signs leading to the fabeled safe-haven. Their journey takes them on an unexpected turn, and soon they are reunited with Perry's sister, Liv, and the cunning tribe leader, Sable, to whom she's betrothed.
Perry, meanwhile, is tempted by a seductive huntress, Kirra. Blinded by the loss of Aria, who he feels abandoned him, Perry doesn't see until it's too late that Kirra is actually in league with Sable, and that both of them have formed a secret pact with Hess to use the Still Blue to save themselves.
With so many lies, temptations, and physical dangers pulling them apart, Aria and Perry wonder, can their love survive through the ever night?
