Each of Us a Desert

Each of Us a Desert by Mark Oshiro

Text from the back cover:

Xochitl is destined to wander the desert alone, speaking her troubled village's stories into the arid winds. Her only companions are the blessed stars above and enigmatic lines of poetry magically strewn across the dusty dunes. Her one desire: to share her heart with a kindred spirit. One night, Xo's wish is granted -- in the form of Emilia, the cold and beautiful daughter of the town's murderous conqueror. when the two set out on a magical journey across the desert, they find their hearts could be a match -- if only they can survive the nightmarish terrors that arise when the sun goes down.
