"When King Jameson declares his love for Lady Hollis Brite, Hollis is shocked--and thrilled. After all, she's grown up at Keresken Castle, vying for the king's attention alongside other daughters of the nobility. Capturing his heart is a dream come true. But Hollis soon realizes that falling in love with a king and being crowned queen may not be the happily ever after she thought it would be. And when she meets a commoner with the mysterious power to see right into her heart, she finds that the future she really wants is one that she never thought to imagine"--Provided by publisher.

Princess Eadlyn has no intention of falling in love with any of the suitors who have come to the palace vying for her affection. But she's surprised by the feelings she begins to develop, and she finds herself facing a decision that is more and important and more difficult than any she's had to make before.

Thirty-five girls are part of the Selection, when the royalty takes suitors for their son, Prince Maxon. These girls will be treated to balls, gowns, jewels--the life of luxury--in order to win the Prince's favor. For America Singer, however, the Selection offers only anxiety. She loves Aspen, even though he is a caste below her. Then, America meets Prince Maxon, and all her plans are ruined.

Princess Eadlyn attempts to choose a prince during her Selection, an event at which suitors compete for her hand, but she worries that she will not be able to make a choice that meets both her own expectations and those of her parents.

Before America Singer's story began, another girl came to the palace to compete for the hand of a different prince. Presented in Spanish.

"Twenty years have passed since America Singer and Prince Maxon fell in love, and their daughter is the first princess to hold a selection of her own"--Provided by publisher.

A member of the sisterhood of sirens deadly to humans, Kahlen must live a lonely life following the rules that prohibit her forming close bonds with humans and though she has lived by these rules for years now, patiently waiting for the life she can call her own, when Akinli, a human, enters her world, she can not bring herself to live by the rules anymore.

"Twenty years ago, America Singer entered the Selection and won Prince Maxon's heart. Now the time has come for Princess Eadlyn to hold a Selection of her own. Eadlyn doesn't expect her Selection to be anything like her parents' fairy-tale love story... but as the competition begins, she may discover that finding her own happily ever after isn't as impossible as she's always thought"--OCLC.

"Can you follow your heart when it's already broken? After fleeing Coroa and leaving the memory of her beloved Silas behind, Hollis is unsteadily adjusting to life in Isolte. The Eastoffe family's affection is a balm on her weary spirit, though Etan, a surly cousin with a deep distaste for Coroans, threatens to upset the uneasy peace she's found. While tensions at home ratchet up, disquiet in the kingdom of Isolte is reaching a fever pitch. The Eastoffes may have the power to unseat a tyrannical king--but only with Hollis's help. Can a girl who's lost it all put the fate of her adopted homeland over the secret longings of her heart?"--From the publisher's web site.
