* FIVE STARRED REVIEWS *

* A LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST *

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 he's been stealing from--think Portrait of a Thief for YA readers.

Icarus Gallagher is a thief. He steals priceless art and replaces it with his father's impeccable forgeries. For years, one man--the wealthy Mr. Black--has been their target in revenge for his role in the death of Icarus's mother. To keep their secret, Icarus adheres to his own strict rules to keep people, and feelings, at bay: Don't let anyone close. Don't let anyone touch you. And, above all, don't 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 Icarus's 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 father's thirst for revenge shows no sign of fading, and soon it may force Icarus to choose: the escape he's dreamed of, or the boy he's come to love. Reaching for both could be his greatest triumph--or it could be his downfall.

"The sparse prose in this unconventional, must-read of a trauma-infused borderline thriller is packed with emotional breadth." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"In this intimate poetic reimagining of the Icarus myth, Ancrum crafts a subversive triumph that is a love letter both to healing from trauma and to the importance of connection and empathy." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Beautifully written...Psychologically acute, subtle, and sophisticated." --ALA Booklist (starred review)

"In her extraordinary fifth novel, Icarus, K. Ancrum performs a confident high-wire act, balancing the weighty manifestations of connection, desire, and contradiction." --BookPage (starred review)

"Gradually, many secrets are revealed, suspense builds, and the romantic tension between the characters ratchets up--all of it enhanced by the vivid prose in this refreshingly succinct novel." --The Horn Book

"Both romance and thriller fans will likely be gripped by this memorable love story, tinged with mythology, built around a mystery made up of bitter secrets between the two families." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)

Understated and pl
Color: 03# Gold
The sparkle effect is pretty muted and understated, which I appreciate. No adverse skin reaction and I have sensitive skin. I’m yet to test it in the sun

Sticky, I’d hate it all over my body. Shimmer is light but glittery.
Color: 02# Rose Gold
Very sticky formula, wore it over regular sunscreen bf I didn’t want to feel that sticky so I only added it to certain spots like my color bones. I’d probably skip next time and just use a highlight.

Absolutely love and fully worth it

I love this product now you can see a little bit of shimmer on my skin, but it’s hard because I’m pale. I will update this with a picture when I get a Tan.. but it smells absolutely delightful. I’m glad I’ve purchased this over the high priced fenty body lava .. and I love it because of the SPF in it . I’m definitely going to purchase the other shades.. it smells like you are on the beach.
