What to expect

Bloomsbury presents Hearts of Fire and Snow by Michael Paul Kennedy, Pete Winner and Andy McNab, read by Ana Osorio and Johnny Rey Diaz.

Award-winning authors David Bowles and Guadalupe García McCall reimagine a beloved Aztec tale of star-crossed lovers with one last chance to reunite.

Blanca Montes wants to make a difference in the world, to do more than her wealthy godfather and spoiled boyfriend think her capable of. So when Greg Chan shows up as a new student at her Nevada school, she is more than intrigued by this handsome, brilliant stranger.

But Greg and Blanca are drawn to each other by something stronger—their fates entwined centuries ago. In his first life, Greg was Captain Popoca, and Blanca is the reincarnation of Princess Iztac, who took her own life after believing her beloved Popoca was sent to his death in battle. Greg has spent a thousand years searching for his lost love, and now the fates have given them one more chance to reunite. Will their hearts finally beat as one?

This swoony contemporary fantasy is perfect for fans of These Violent Delights and This Poison Heart.

Critics Review

A stellar dual-narrative fantasy romance with young adults who are ready to better the world.
Booklist
An intriguing tale of love and repentance.
Kirkus Reviews
An excellent romantic fantasy woven with timeless themes. The authors juxtapose historical aspects of Aztec civilization with today’s current events, calling attention to strains that migrants experience in modern-day detention centers. Young adults will thoroughly enjoy this riveting, long-distance love story.
