Sie ist zur Kämpferin erzogen worden, und als Tochter des Clan-Führers würde die siebzehnjährige Eelyn jederzeit ihr Leben für ihre Familie und ihre Freunde geben. Während einer Schlacht gegen die verfeindeten Riki traut sie ihren Augen nicht. Denn Eelyn sieht ihren tot geglaubten Bruder - wie er an der Seite eines kühnen Riki kämpft. Weder ein Pfeil im Arm noch ein Schwerthieb könnte Eelyn so schwer treffen wie der Verrat ihres Bruders. Sie selbst würde sich niemals mit dem Feind verbünden. Auch nicht, wenn sie sich verliebt. Und selbst dann nicht, wenn es den Untergang der Clans bedeutet. Oder? »Rau, wunderschön und treffsicher. ›Das Herz der Kämpferin‹ erzählt sowohl düster und herzzerreißend von Krieg als auch umsichtig und gedankenvoll von Identität, Familie und Glaube - eine Geschichte, die so wild ist wie ihre Hauptfigur und genauso ein echtes und sanftes Herz hat.« SPIEGEL-Bestsellerautorin Traci Chee »Mit ›Das Herz der Kämpferin‹ hat Adrienne Young faszinierenden, vielschichtigen Figuren in einer krass schönen Welt Leben eingehaucht. Alles ist üppig und atmosphärisch. Das Eis schmilzt auf der Haut, während gleichzeitig das Adrenalin ins Herz schießt. Eine packende und anschaulich erzählte Geschichte.« SPIEGEL-Bestsellerautorin Renée Ahdieh »Wild, lebendig und gewaltig schön.« New-York-Times-Bestsellerautorin Stephanie Garber »In ihrem Debütroman überzeugt Adrienne Young vom ersten Satz an durch ihren Schreibstil, der eine Atmosphäre erzeugt, von der man sich nicht losreißen kann.«Rezensöhnchen

As a boy, Elias learned the hard way what happens when you don’t heed the old tales. Nine years after his lack of superstition got his father killed, he’s grown into a young man of piety, with a deep reverence for the hallowed sea and her fickle favor. As stories of the fisherman’s son who has managed to escape the most deadly of storms spreads from port to port, his devotion to the myths and creeds has given him the reputation of the luckiest bastard to sail the Narrows. Now, he’s mere days away from getting everything his father ever dreamed for him: a ship of his own, a crew, and a license that names him as one of the first Narrows-born traders. But when a young dredger from the Unnamed Sea with more than one secret crosses his path, Elias’ faith will be tested like never before. The greater the pull he feels toward her, the farther he drifts from the things he’s spent the last three years working for. He is dangerously close to repeating his mistakes and he’s seen first hand how vicious the jealous sea can be. If he’s going to survive her retribution, he will have to decide which he wants more, the love of the girl who could change their shifting world, or the sacred beliefs that earned him the name that he’s known for—Saint.
After years of escaping deadly storms and gaining the reputation of being the luckiest to sail the Narrows, Elias's luck may have run out when he crosses paths with a young dredger from the Unnamed Sea, who tests his faith like never before.
In the small mountain town of Jasper, North Carolina, June Farrow is waiting for fate to find her. The Farrow women are known for their thriving flower farm--and the mysterious curse that has plagued their family line. The whole town remembers the madness that led to Susanna Farrow's disappearance, leaving June to be raised by her grandmother and haunted by rumors. It's been a year since June started seeing and hearing things that weren't there. Faint wind chimes, a voice calling her name, and a mysterious door appearing out of nowhere-the signs of what June always knew was coming. But June is determined to end the curse once and for all, even if she must sacrifice finding love and having a family of her own. After her grandmother's death, June discovers a series of cryptic clues regarding her mother's decades-old disappearance, except they only lead to more questions. But could the door she once assumed was a hallucination be the answer she's been searching for? The next time it appears, June realizes she can touch it and walk past the threshold. And when she does, she embarks on a journey that will not only change both the past and the future, but also uncover the lingering mysteries of her small town and entangle her heart in an epic star-crossed love.
