Our Violent Ends


The year is 1927, and Shanghai teeters on the edge of revolution. The heartstopping follow up to These Violent Delights, an imaginative, alluring retelling of Romeo and Juliet set in 1920s Shanghai. After sacrificing her relationship with Roma to protect him from the blood feud, Juliette has been a girl on the warpath. One wrong move, and her cousin will step into usurp her place as the Scarlet Gang's heir. The only way to save the boy she loves from the wrath of the Scarlets is to have him want her dead for murdering his best friend in cold blood. If Juliette were actually guilty of the crime Roma believes she committed, his rejection might sting less. Roma is still reeling from Marshall's death, and his cousin Benedikt will barely speak to him. Roma knows it's his fault for letting the ruthless Juliette back into his life, and he's determined to set things right - even if that means killing the girl he hates and loves with equal measure. Then a new monstrous danger emerges in the city, and though secrets keep them apart, Juliette must secure Roma's cooperation if they are to end this threat once and for all. Shanghai is already at a boiling point: The Nationalists are marching in, whispers of civil war brew louder every day, and gangster rule faces complete annihilation. Roma and Juliette must put aside their differences to combat monsters and politics, but they aren't prepared for the biggest threat of all: protecting their hearts from each other.

Naše zakázané vášně


Píše se rok 1926 a Šanghaj rozechvívá melodie zhýralosti. Krvavý konflikt mezi dvěma gangy barví ulice do ruda a město se nachází v zoufalém víru chaosu. V srdci všeho stojí osmnáctiletá Juliette Caiová, která se vrátila, aby převzala svou roli hrdé dědičky Šarlatového gangu – sítě zločinců, kteří stojí vysoko nad zákonem. Jejich jedinými soky jsou členové znepřáteleného gangu Bílé květy, se kterými bojují už celé generace. A za každým pohybem rivalů stojí dědic Květů Roma Montagov, Juliettina první láska – a taky první člověk, který ji zradil. Ale když zločinci na obou stranách barikády začnou vykazovat známky nevyrovnanosti, která se stupňuje až do chvíle, kdy si vyrvou vlastní hrdlo, lidé si začnou šeptat. O nákaze. Šílenství. Monstru skrývajícím se ve stínech. A protože mrtví přibývají, Juliette a Roma musí odložit zbraně a spolupracovat. Protože jestli se jim nepodaří tenhle zmatek zastavit, nebude už žádné město, kterému by mohli vládnout.
