A sequel that quelled the original - this book picks up right after the royal wedding and the downfall of Queen Mor, where Ivy Benton realizes the true evil she has wed, the King of bot the Otherworld and England - Bram. Heartsick and armed with her experience from the earlier trials, Ivy and her handmaids do their best to build allies and not allow the nation to fall into despair and disrepair... In the Otherworld, Emmett de Vere and Lydia Benton find friendship and are making moves to dethrone Bram as King in a country of faes, with friendships, hardships and many a riddle thrown their way...
The book is fast paced with lots of trips and turns and the hot and cold chemistry between Ivy and Emmett was unreal!!! I loved the growth in Lydia and her handling of all affairs in the Otherworld and Ivy is the smart sassy and absolutely stubborn princess and champion we root for!!! The backstory for Bram was a sucker punch - making this series for me! Sasha Peyton Smith stunned me to silence with her evolution of Bram - LIVE for these villains....
If you thought Rose Bargain was delightful - I'll take the bet and raise you tenfold for this successor!
My otherworldly gratitude to HarperCollins Children's Books and Netgalley for this world-bending stunner of a sequel!
