Kiera Cass Livres

Elles sont trente-cinq jeunes filles : la "Sélection" s'annonce comme l'opportunité de leur vie. L'unique chance pour elles de troquer un destin misérable contre un monde de paillettes. L'unique occasion d'habiter dans un palais et de conquérir le coeur du prince Maxon, l'héritier du trône. Mais pour America Singer, cette sélection relève plutôt du cauchemar. Cela signifie renoncer à son amour interdit avec Aspen, un soldat de la caste inférieure. Quitter sa famille. Entrer dans une compétition sans merci. Vivre jour et nuit sous l'oeil des caméras... Puis America rencontre le Prince. Et tous les plans qu'elle avait échafaudés s'en trouvent bouleversés...

Pour America Singer, la donne est encore plus compliquée : ses sentiments pour Maxon viennent se heurter à son amour d'enfance pour Aspen, garde royal qui hante les couloirs du palais, et à son sens aigu de la justice trop souvent déçu par les décisions royales ... Entre intrigues de cour, dilemmes tragiques et loyautés divisées, America navigue à vue dans la tourmente, en quête de la décision qui changera à jamais sa vie ..

The Selection began with thirty-five girls. Now with the group narrowed down to the six Elite, the competition to win Prince Maxon's heart is fiercer than ever—and America is still struggling to decide where her heart truly lies. Is it with Maxon, who could make her life a fairy tale? Or with her first love, Aspen? America is desperate for more time. But the rest of the Elite know exactly what they want—and America's chance to choose is about to slip away.
