The first book in a fantasy romance series featuring a heroine who must choose between two very different men and two very different destinies. [Desire will] entertain romance lovers. Kama Johnson, a high school senior living in the utopian town of Arcadia, couldn't ask for more; beautiful, well-liked and intelligent, she has nothing to regret and everything to look forward to. As teenagers on the verge of adulthood, Kama and her friends eagerly await the discovery of their Life s Plan, a document issued to them on their 18th birthday that will determine who and what they will become in Arcadian society. Kama happily anticipates learning that she will graduate with honors, attend a top school and become the wife of her long-term boyfriend Liam Seer. However, all these future plans are put into doubt when Kama encounters a mysterious young man named Torrid. To make matters worse, when Kama finally receives her Life s Plan, the unthinkable occurs it s blank. Gow's -Bitter Frost, 2010, etc.- narrative straddles the line between romance and fantasy as Kama gradually learns the horrifying truth about the seemingly perfect Arcadia while she also struggles to understand her feelings for Liam and Torrid. --Kirkus Reviews
