Heartless Heirs by MarcyKate Connolly

4.0

I received an ARC of this title from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own and were not affected by the free copy.

Aissa and Zandria are back together and have escaped the Technocrats prison. The trauma that Zandria suffered in the prison has hardened her, so much that Aissa has never felt so alone, even with her twin back. Zandria wants all Technocrats dead, Aissa wants to grant mercy to the innocent. Will either get what they want?

The pacing in this book was much better than the first. Personally, I liked the first book, but it did have a tendency to drag on, with little action happening. In the sequel, there were still a few places it dragged, but that was rare. The story was pretty good, though I spent so much of the book being absolutely annoyed at how dead set the characters were with their prejudices and close-mindedness. I expected this series to end up being a trilogy-I had 7% of the book left, and so many loose ends to tie up, but somehow, the author managed to squeeze it all in.

This cover is absolutely stunning and definitely does justice to the story within. I will definitely be watching this author for any future books.
