Revenge is the only thing on the mind of Ela Dalvi, the protagonist of romance author Amalie Howard's YA debut, "Queen Bee." When she was younger, Ela trusted her best friend Poppy, who ruthlessly destroyed her reputation to ruin her chances with handsome newcomer Kes. While away at a school for other disgraced girls, Ela has reinvented herself. Now, she's back and ready to reintegrate into the English courting scene — and take down Poppy once and for all. But her plans for vengeance keep veering off track as Ela finds herself entranced by her childhood friend Kes, with whom it seems nothing has changed regarding their connection. Will keeping up her lie cost her everything, or is everything worth bringing her enemy down?
