Tikimoof | Feb 17, 2022 |    ) resoundingjoy | Jan 1, 2021 | I am hoping later books are able to repair some of what's gone wrong in this book. That said, I did still enjoy most of this book, despite not liking those major plot threads. The political plot was interesting, and Princess Amalie is a great, intriguing character. And when Kirra wasn't acting a thoughtless fool in her personal life, she was pretty badass. This one is definitely a mixed bag. (  ) elenaj | Jul 31, 2020 | I guess that is, however, a mark of how well it's written... there have been other books that have affairs in them which I have read, and not cared as much. But this one was done so well that it's too believable. Still. It is a great book, which is why I bought it (and re-read it) instead of relying on the library copy I read the first time around.

I absolutely *detested* the love triangle/adultery thing. It is only because of my interest in how the war will turn out, and my interest in the other characters that got me through this book. I would have dropped it otherwise. I even like Kirra in every other sense! I was fine with her POV except when she was with Romar. Then I couldn't wait for it to be over.
I continued the series, but this book seriously soured all of the other romances in it. (
