Pétalos de papel / Paper Petals

Illustrated by Paulina Klime
Un mundo en el que caben todos los mundos.

Un chico con el poder de crear puentes entre ellos.

Una chica que llega por accidente... y que no puede regresar a casa

Dani es una chica normal. O lo era hasta que un libro se la tragó y llegó a Albión, una dimensión regentada por una clase noble que impone sus normas escondida tras sonrisas fingidas y bailes a medianoche. Un mundo en el que los visitantes como ella son meros siervos a su merced.

Marcus es el heredero de la familia Abberlain y el único con el poder de devolver a Dani a casa. Un don que muchos envidian y quisieran controlar a cualquier precio. Un paso en falso y la vida que Marcus ha construido con tanto esmero escudado tras una máscara de indiferencia podría derrumbarse a su alrededor.

Cuando sus historias se entrelacen, Dani y Marcus harán temblar la bien asentada jerarquía de Albión, pero…

Alterar el orden es peligroso.

Y ni siquiera el amor puede desafiar al destino.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Iria and Selene return to their roots with a captivating romantic fantasy.

Dani is a normal girl, or at least she was until a book swallowed her and took her to Albion, a new dimension ruled by a noble class that imposes their rules. Hidden behind fake smiles and midnight balls, this is a world where visitors like her are mere servants at their mercy. Marcus is the heir to the Abberlain family and the only one with the power to return Dani home. It is a gift that many envy and that many would like to control at any price. One wrong move and the life Marcus has built could come crashing down around him. When fate unites them, Dani and Marcus will shake Albion's hierarchy to the core, but...disrupting the pre-established order is dangerous.
Selene M. Pascual (1989) e Iria G. Parente (1993) son dos jóvenes autoras de Vigo y Madrid respectivamente. En 2012 escribieron su primera novela juntas, Pétalos de papel, que colgaron gratuitamente en Internet. Gracias al éxito de esta historia dieron el salto a las editoriales y desde entonces no han parado: después de Alianzas (La Galera), Sueños de piedra y Títeres de la magia (Nocturna Ediciones), llega su cuarta novela publicada, Rojo y Oro.
