Description

An epic story of love and betrayal set against the backdrop of the Tiananmen Square protests, Her Rebel Highness continues Diana Ma’s Daughter of the Dynasty series.

In Heiress Apparently, Gemma Huang’s big acting break led her to Beijing, where she uncovered an incredible family secret. This second novel delves further into Gemma’s complex and storied legacy, moving back one generation to tell the story of Gemma’s mother, Lei, as she finds love against the backdrop of 1980s China and the Tiananmen Square protests and makes a difficult decision that forever alters the course of her life.

“The interactions between the sisters and their friends are fast-paced and build suspense in both the personal realm and the more serious historical aspect . . . A compelling novel that covers an important time in Chinese history while also giving readers an enjoyable teen romance.” —School Library Journal (Starred Review)
