Publisher's summary

For fans of Red Queen and Grave Mercy comes the captivating sequel to the Renaissance France-inspired epic fantasy The Queen’s Rising.

Brienna is a mistress of knowledge and is beginning to settle into her role as the daughter of the once-disgraced Lord Davin MacQuinn. Though she’d just survived a revolution that will return a queen to the throne, she faces yet another challenge: acceptance by the MacQuinns.

But as Queen Isolde Kavanagh’s closest confidant, she’ll have to balance serving her father’s house as well as her country.

Then there’s Aodhan Morgan, formerly known as Cartier Évariste, who is adjusting to the stark contrast between his pre-rebellion life in Valenia and his current one as lord of a fallen house. As he attempts to restore the Morgane name, he let his mind wander - what if he doesn’t have to raise his house alone? What if Brienna could stand by his side?

But Brienna and Cartier must put their feelings aside, as there are more vital tasks at hand - the Lannons' trial, forging alliances, and ensuring that no one halts the queen’s coronation. Resistance is rumbling among the old regime’s supporters, who are desperate to find a weakness in the rebels’ forces.

And what makes one more vulnerable than love?

Such a beautiful ending to this duology

Though I loved the first book, this one had much more depth, adventure and conflict! It was more enrapturing than the first, and brought many strings of the storyline together. I would definitely recommend this duology to those who love romance, magic, adventure and fantasy!

Unexpected events

I enjoyed the plot of this story - how a “failure” can lead us to our destiny. The slow burn romance. The friendships & found family. There was a moment I gasped at the shock of a revelation - so unexpected I never saw it coming. It really enhanced the book. Listening to this on Audio was very fun - the narrators do a great job.
