![]() ![]() The marketing for this book said that it would be a steamy new duology from Kiera Cass. Definitely sounded like something I would like to read. A king wants Hollis’s hands, but her heart is being captured by a commoner. So, I was looking forward to seeing what she wrote next. I also liked the sequel series and The Siren. While I wasn’t as avid a fan of The Selection as some people, I did still like it. And when she meets a commoner with the mysterious power to see right into her heart, she finds that the future she really wants is one that she never thought to imagine. But Hollis soon realizes that falling in love with a king and being crowned queen may not be the happily ever after she thought it would be. Capturing his heart is a dream come true. ![]() After all, she’s grown up at Keresken Castle, vying for the king’s attention alongside other daughters of the nobility. When King Jameson declares his love for Lady Hollis Brite, Hollis is shocked-and thrilled. *Spoiler free* Thank you to HaperCollins and Edelweiss for the e-ARC! ![]()

The kind of man that, before it all, she would’ve fallen head-over-heels for. A man with kind eyes and a Southern drawl and a taste for lemon pies. The love part is hard because she doesn’t want to get too close to anyone-she isn’t sure her heart can take it.Īnd then she finds a strange man standing in the kitchen of her late aunt’s apartment. ![]() And for the last year, that plan has gone off without a hitch.
