Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, this suspenseful queer YA romance from critically acclaimed author K. Ancrum reimagines the tale of Icarus as a star-crossed love story between a young art thief and the son of the man hes been stealing from. Icarus Gallagher is a thief who steals priceless art and replaces it with his fathers impeccable forgeries. For years, one man Mr. Black has been their target in revenge for his role in the death of Icaruss mother. To keep their secret, Icarus adheres to his own strict rules to keep people and feelings at bay: Dont let anyone close. Dont let anyone touch you. And, above all, dont get caught. Until one night, he does. Not by Mr. Black but by his mysterious son, Helios, now living under house arrest in the Black mansion. Instead of turning Icarus in, Helios bargains for something even more dangerous a friendship that breaks every single one of Icaruss rules. As reluctance and distrust become closeness and something more, they uncover the gilded cage that has trapped both their families for years. One Icarus is determined to escape. But his fathers thirst for revenge shows no sign of fading, and soon it may force Icarus to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 431g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 140 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780063285781\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"K.
