Kidnapped by a sentient forest, stubborn and mildly lovelorn (but she didn't tell you that) Eliza Feldman works to combine her talents of seduction with her need to meddle in absolutely everything to enjoy herself as best she can in the land of slackers and attractive men... temporarily. Only temporarily. There's an evil queen in there, after all.

Celeste is the daughter of the Citizen Principia, but when she stumbles upon a conspiracy and is kidnapped by rebels, the future of Verium rests in her hands. ***** Celeste Navarie is the sixteen-year-old daughter of the Citizen Principia, which means she lives a life of privilege in a dystopian world that allows no personal freedom. Celeste dreams of adventure and smuggles herself beyond the walls regularly, to purchase books and documents from the outside world. During her journeys, she uncovers a conspiracy: members of the palace staff are part of the rebellion, and she finds evidence her father is a murderous tyrant. Not sure who to trust, Celeste is kidnapped and has no way to escape. The future of Verium rests on Celeste's shoulders, and if she makes a mistake it will doom not just her, but everyone.
