Breaking Butterflies

Imagine the twisted romance of Noughts and Crosses tucked inside a modern fairy tale. The girl is sweet and ordinary. The boy is brilliant, charismatic – and sick. He is unable to feel… Two little girls meet in a playground, many years ago. They become best friends. They talk about the children they will one day have. Leigh will have a boy. Sarah will have a girl. And they promise each other that those children will marry. The children are born. They grow up. They’re an odd couple: prodigy Cadence, with his ice-blue eyes and ice-white hair, and podgy little Sphinx. Yet they are drawn together by the dreams of their mothers. Nobody knows that Cadence is broken inside… An epic tale of love, light, dark and shadows by a brilliant new teen writer. A voice so true it’s hard to believe she wrote this aged seventeen.
