This was quite a different read for my but I did enjoy the story.
Camellia is a belle, belles control beauty in the world of Orleans.
When Camellia and her Belle sisters arrive at court, she soon learns that
what she’s been taught isnt all its cracked up to be. First she is not chosen
to be the favorite, then she is chosen to be the favorite. Followed by
finding out some pretty dark things about the queens youngest daughter,
helping save the queens oldest daughter and then running for her life away
from Orleans with her sister Amber and her guard Remy.
