About this book:
“The king is very ill and in a hurry to hand over his power to a new generation when rumors begin to circulate through the kingdom. It appears the king is unaware of the queen’s sinister plot against the thirteen-year-old orphans, as she wants to ensure her child becomes rightful heir to the throne.
Avery weighs the pros and cons of seeking an audience with the king while the castle is dealt a heavy blow; but Avery decides the risk is worth taking, and she steps out of the shadows for the first time since entering the castle walls. When Avery is offered the opportunity of a lifetime, will she choose a life free from hardship within the castle walls. . .or her family and the home she left behind?”

My personal
Rating-
After anticipating this book for
months, I felt like it fell a little flat for me. The ending was super rushed
and there were some parts that seemed a bit predictable. I would still say the
first book of this trilogy was my favorite and I still did overall enjoy this
series. They were fun, easy reads. :)
See y’all on Monday with a new
review!
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
