The Book of Ivy by Amy Engel
The Book of Ivy Review
Quotes:
“Well-developed characters and intricate
world-building combined with complex relationships, political corruption, and
betrayal, leave readers begging for the second book in this series.” —School
Library Journal
“I enjoyed this novel so much that I
polished it off in two sittings. There is no insta-love! There is no love
triangle! Best of all, the protagonist actually has common sense, and she uses
it! The slow-to-develop relationship is believable, and both Ivy and Bishop are
easy to relate to. Waiting anxiously for Book 2!” —Julie at Magna Mania Cafe
“Thought-provoking, poignant, and sexy!
Readers will burn the midnight oil to finish The Book of Ivy and fall asleep
with the name Bishop Lattimer on their lips.” —Regina at Mel, Erin and Regina

The Book of Ivy Excerpt /
Teaser:
"We haven’t slept together or shared
secrets together or done much of anything together,
really. But in perhaps the
most important way of all, everything’s altered since those first hesitant
nights. Because by being the person I come home to, the person who asks me
about my day and listens to my answers, Bishop’s become the constant my life
revolves around. Even if most of the time we navigate so carefully we might as
well be bombs trying not to explode, we are still always there, in each other’s
paths. Just waiting for the moments we intersect." —The Book of Ivy by Amy Engel
The Book of Ivy Synopsis:
After a brutal nuclear war, the United States
was left decimated. A small group of survivors eventually banded together, but
only after more conflict over which family would govern the new nation. The
Westfalls lost. Fifty years later, peace and control are maintained by marrying
the daughters of the losing side to the sons of the winning group in a yearly
ritual.This year, it is my turn.
My name is Ivy Westfall, and my mission is simple: to kill the president’s son—my soon-to-be husband—and return the Westfall family to power.
But Bishop Lattimer is either a very skilled actor or he’s not the cruel, heartless boy my family warned me to expect. He might even be the one person in this world who truly understands me. But there is no escape from my fate. I am the only one who can restore the Westfall legacy.
Because Bishop must die. And I must be the one to kill him…
