I loved this fast-paced story. Captivating tale of politics and self-discovery. Delicious chemistry between the two leads. Looking forward to continuing the series!

Tackles the nuances of rebellions. Rebels think the crown is evil, crown thinks the rebels are evil. They're both right and they're both wrong.

4.5

I would’ve given this book 5 stars because I loved the characters and there were some good plot twists but I feel like towards the end especially I felt as if there was something missing. I also wish there was more in terms of romance or just moments between Tessa and Corrick because I feel like that was quite lacking. So I’m giving it a 4.5 instead but I did absolutely love reading about Corrick and Harristan and can’t wait to see what happens next!!
