I really enjoyed this book. There were a lot of plot twists that made reading this book even more exiting. It's a great friction book with romance as a sub-plot :)

Holy wow. Now Tessa is going to be taught by Rocco how to fight. Does this mean she has to be the one to make the decisions now?? For the trade agreement?? Are the rebels gonna follow Harristan?? Omg this is crazy. I can’t wait for book three!
