Summary from Goodreads:
Warring families. Forbidden love. And danger they can’t escape…
Daggers. Roses. Cowboys. Boat Men. Survivors of Earth's Last War, four “families” vie to rule the dreary streets of Rain City through violence and blood. Valencia Hara, Princess of the wealthy Black Roses, is raised in warrior ways with sharpened steel. But she is no ordinary Rose. She is Cursed—tainted with the ability to see seconds into the future…
To avenge his father's death, Sebastian Leold, of the rival gang Two Daggers, must face off against the Black Princess, he with his dagger, she with her katana sword. Yet a secret from a shared past leaves him unable to kill beautiful Valencia; nor can she kill him. For they once knew each other beyond their blood feud…and they have more secrets in common than they know.
But in a world filled with vengeance and violence, there can be no room for love…

and graphic designer to earn a paycheck while pursing her passion for creating
fantastical stories set in dark and wondrous corners of the world.
Born amongst the wheat fields and open skies of the Canadian
prairies, CJ’s imagination has always run wild, taking her on adventures across
the world from modeling in Seoul, South Korea to backpacking through Europe and
surfing (poorly) in Hawaii.
After wandering
through ancient cities and civilizations, learning from diverse cultures, and
surrounding herself in new experiences, CJ was inspired and began work on her
debut Young Adult novel THE THORN AND THE SINKING STONE, to be published by

stories.
