 We get another great book from Annie Sullivan (A Touch of Gold). Here is another YA fantasy tale that tells the story of a fierce princess in the desert battling to save her kingdom.

In the desert kingdom of Achra, an ancient law forces Princess Kateri who is 16 to fight in the arena to prove her right to rule. She also made a promise to her late mother to protect her people, who are struggling through windstorms and drought. Where her father had put a limit on how much water a family can have in a day. The situation became worse by a gang of Desert Boys that raid the city wells. The punishment for stealing water is a choice between 2 doors: behind one lies freedom, and behind the other is a tiger.
 Kateri’s final opponent is announced, she knows she cannot win. In desperation, she turns to the desert and the one person she never thought she’d side with the leader of the desert boys. What Kateri discovers twists her world and her heart upside down. Her future is now behind two doors only she’s not sure which holds the key to keeping her kingdom and which releases the tiger.
 This book will leave you wanting more. The love story that happened in the end is beautiful. The writing couldn't have been better. The way everything was written and described was remarkable. I'm kind of sad there's not another book but this author did an amazing job telling this story. Definitely, a 5 star read.
