<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Includes an excerpt from "Love & war" and "The queen's assassin".<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Witches of East End</i> and the Descendants series<i> </i>comes the love story of young Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler. <br></b><br> 1777. Albany, New York. <p/> As battle cries of the American Revolution echo in the distance, servants flutter about preparing for one of New York society's biggest events: the Schuylers' grand ball. Descended from two of the oldest and most distinguished bloodlines in New York, the Schuylers are proud to be one of their fledgling country's founding families, and even prouder still of their three daughters--Angelica, with her razor-sharp wit; Peggy, with her dazzling looks; and Eliza, whose beauty and charm rival those of both her sisters, though she'd rather be aiding the colonists' cause than dressing up for some silly ball. <p/> Still, Eliza can barely contain her excitement when she hears of the arrival of one Alexander Hamilton, a mysterious, rakish young colonel and General George Washington's right-hand man. Though Alex has arrived as the bearer of bad news for the Schuylers, he can't believe his luck--as an orphan, and a bastard one at that--to be in such esteemed company. And when Alex and Eliza meet that fateful night, so begins an epic love story that would forever change the course of American history. <p/>In the pages of <i>Alex and Eliza, </i>#1 <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz brings to life the romance of young Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Alex & Eliza: A Love Story</i> <p/>A <i>New York Times </i>Bestseller!<br>A <i>Seventeen</i> Magazine Best YA Book of 2017<br></b><br> "This charming historical romance is a must-read for any fan of <i>Hamilton </i>who felt drawn in, first and foremost, by the sweeping love story."--<i>Booklist </i> <p/>"de la Cruz has struck while the iron is hot and shone a light on the extraordinary wife of Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, Eliza Schuyler. . . .
