Two girls, both gifted with magic, and intertwined with each other’s fate. Annalise is the cousin to the prince and has been hiding her powers, waiting to get revenge against the king, however when he announces that she is to be betrothed to a stranger 20 years her senior and sent to a far away kingdom...that is the last straw. Her rage, her magic, cannot be tamed and when her cousin tries to bring her back to the ball to dance with her new fiancee she snaps...and accidentally damages the prince. Now she uses her magic to not only influence the king but to influence the advisors into believing her cousin has run away and that she is the rightful heir... all to further her plans to not only save the kingdom from the slightly deranged king but to also avenge her mother. Evra was raised to believe she didn’t have magic, but after a disastrous meeting with her crush that ends with her crushed... she is suddenly thrust into a painful vision. Evra soon finds out that she is a once in a generation clairvoyant... who is meant to serve the crown. With her new visions Evra is sent to warn to King about the visions she is seeing but soon she finds herself in the midst of court politics as well as trying to decipher her new visions and a strange boy who appears in them. Filled with intrigue, romance, and politics this was such a fun read. It is told from alternating POVS between Annalise and Evra, you get to see both sides of their stories and their motivations and personally I empathized with Annalise so much. The romance was interesting as we got two different types of relationships: Annalise with hers which had a interesting take on whether this love was right, whether it was magic, or how far and deep loyalty goes, and Evra’s was a sweet one, from building their friendship and helping one another. Overall a great stand-alone fantasy read!
