A lush
tapestry of magic, romance, and revolución, drawing inspiration from Bolivian
politics and history.
Ximena is the decoy Condesa, a stand-in for the last remaining Illustrian royal. Her people lost everything when the usurper, Atoc, used an ancient relic to summon ghosts and drive the Illustrians from La Ciudad. Now Ximena’s motivated by her insatiable thirst for revenge, and her rare ability to spin thread from moonlight.
When Atoc demands the real Condesa’s hand in marriage, it’s Ximena’s duty to go in her stead. She relishes the chance, as Illustrian spies have reported that Atoc’s no longer carrying his deadly relic. If Ximena can find it, she can return the true aristócrata to their rightful place.
She hunts for the relic, using her weaving ability to hide messages in tapestries for the resistance. But when a masked vigilante, a warm-hearted princess, and a thoughtful healer challenge Ximena, her mission becomes more complicated. There could be a way to overthrow the usurper without starting another war, but only if Ximena turns her back on revenge—and her Condesa.

Ibanez brings a modern story to an ancient world in her debut novel, WOVEN IN

Bolivian culture that constructs the story, Ibanez delivers a wholly unique
book for the YA shelf.”
— Adrienne
Young, NYT Bestselling author of Sky in the Deep and The Girl the Sea Gave Back
“WOVEN IN
MOONLIGHT captured me on the first page. Ximena is a fierce and brave
heroine—one I have deeply come to love—and the world of Inkasisa is so
beautifully rendered I never wanted to leave it. Plot twists abound, the magic
is uniquely drawn, and intrigue illuminates the pages. Isabel Ibanez weaves
together a spellbinding, vivid debut.”
— Rebecca
Ross, author of The Queen's Rising and The Queen's Resistance
“A story
that glitters as bright as Ximena’s moondust, set in a wholly immersive world
that’s both whimsical and deadly. With its slow burn romance and simmering
intrigue, Woven In Moonlight kept me reading long into the night. Isabel Ibañez
writes pure magic.”
— Shelby
Mahurin, NYT Bestselling author of Serpent & Dove

Starlight is a lush, vibrant feast of a book, set in a world as colorful and
inventive as the fierce heroine’s magical tapestries. I could have remained
lost in its pages forever.”
