Alessandra has a plan to woo the Shadow King, but not for love, but for the kingdom, HER kingdom or at least it will be once her plan is complete.

There's just one tiny problem, her past. But she's not about to let her past love interest ruin her shot at being queen.

This is a story of cunning, ambition, betrayals, and love.

Alessandra is one of my favorite female leads. She is Ruthless from the beginning and isn't apologetic about who she truly is. Throughout the book she still goes through a significant transformation, but one that doesn't take away her ambitious nature.

The young adult romance scenes are beautifully written and flow well within the storyline. As I read I found myself unable to stop smiling or stop reading. This book is a must read.
