I loved this book so much it had so many fun and funny moments to go with the serious ones this book definitely a joy to read. I loved the characters so much especially Mary and Francis I loved their awkward love story with both of them being very unsure of many things at the beginning I really loved how it all ended up. I loved Mary for her headstrongness her doing things her way and her loathing of being told what to do I loved how she fit so well with Francis who was unsure at the start but became very sure of who he should be by the end. I also loved the romance of Ari and Liv it was the extra that just made this book so much better. I loved the plot it started with Mary just going on with what she does as betrothed of Francis and hiding that she is an Eðian those are forbidden in France where she is many things start happening her wedding is moved up and the King dies other things happen and it ends really wonderfully. So overall I loved this book will be reading more of these books by these authors since they are so very good books.
