When not writing or doing book covers, Tatiana Vila can be found binge-watching series, painting cool abstract stuff, eating way too many candies, and fantasizing about interior design makeovers. Her motto: let the mind run wild.

Ice Queen. That's what everyone calls Dafne at school. The girl with the striking looks of a Raven Princess but whose cold-steeled touch freezes everyone in her way. Her reputation works for her and she even likes it. People don't mess with her—except for her sister's infuriatingly handsome boyfriend, Ian, who loves pushing her subzero temper to its limits.

Life in Berryford is flowing exactly as she wants it—no drama, no boy trying to get into her pants—until she starts noticing odd, glazed-eyed students everywhere. Something weird is happening and, unusual enough for her, she needs to find out why. But when people start falling into a coma with no reason, among them Dafne's sister, she decides to take the matter in her hands, because if her intuition is right, this isn't something doctors or virologists can fight. This is something…more.

With frustration and guilt leading her way, and Ian forcing himself to her side, Dafne will step onto a road that'll open her eyes to why ignorance is bliss, why hate is so close to love, and why our imagination might be the most dangerous weapon ever known.


Breakaway

I woke up by the smell of a soft, buttery scent. It laced the air with warmth and promises of pleasure and fulfillment. Hunger exploded in my stomach like a punch. I made my way out of bed and stopped next to the large couch, where Ian's sleepy form rested. A faint distorted vibration that sounded more like snoring whispered through his nose.


I pushed back the need to watch his unguarded face in the dimness of the room, telling myself it was there because of my other need to squeeze toothpaste onto his mouth so when he would wake up his lips would stick together. That's what I would've done normally. But it seemed I hadn't come back to my old self yet, because pulling that prank on him was the last thing on my mind. He didn't deserve that.


I rolled my eyes. Jesus, I really am mad.
