But don't worry, because, things go back to be awesome as if this chapter had never happened--or almost so: I would have avoided making them fight Snow Like Ashes (*gags*) style. Pearson is the International and NYT bestselling and award-winning author the Remnant Chronicles trilogy, the Dance of Thieves duology, The Jenna Fox Chronicles trilogy, and several other books for young adults.

It is my wedding day and I'm going to run away because I can't bear to be trapped in a marriage that will secure the peace between the two nations and I think my future husband is going to be a hideous old douchebag! While she struggles to reach Morrighan and warn them, she finds herself at cross-purposes with Rafe and suspicious of Kaden, who has hunted her down. The Prince isn't old or decrepit like she was afraid of - he's handsome (oh wow, who would have ever thought).She runs away to a little seaside town and becomes a waitress, does laundry and waits for her prince to come. Our two young bucks, in addition, both love Lia for the right reasons (and how could they not love her? They know her worth, they know she’s not just a damsel in distress -because she clearly isn’t-, they know she’s not another spoiled brat ready to play games on them, and, all above this, they definitely know she could kick them both in the junk if she knew that they’re planning on doing something she’s not fond of.

Yes it's beautiful BUT I hate when there's a person on the covers then they don't match the character descriptions. If you thought Throne of Glass or Shadow and Bone were fantasy-lite, then this is fantasy-zero (no sugar, no calories, tastes like ass). As an added bonus, there are even a few hints that perhaps this world is ours, set in some distant future. The story was written from three different viewpoints, and although I struggled remembering whose view each one was, the different perspectives makes it much more exciting.I just finished rewatching season 3 of TLA, which is why I was in a good mood, but that doesn't excuse the rest of this boring, annoying, and absolutely petty plot. Mary Pearson did an excellent job in seamlessly switching back and forth while leaving us little bread crumbs of evidence to which guy was which. She settles in among the common folk, intrigued when two mysterious and handsome strangers arrive - and unaware that one is the jilted prince and the other an assassin sent to kill her.

this book is adequate entertainment for what it is, but nothing that will most likely have a long-lasting effect on me.

The first half of this novel spent a good deal of time introducing us to the characters and it felt more like a historical fantasy novel, which is pretty much what I expected based on the cover and the summary for the book. If, for example, you start reading a new book, and the first glimpses you get of ALL THREE main characters are less than flattering, you might be tempted to toss said book aside in disgust and hope the next one goes better.

As she's adapting to her new life, she meets two guys, Rafe and Kaden, one of them is an assassin sent to kill her and the other is the prince she was supposed to marry; however, we don't know who's who. I was a bit heated while I wrote it and tried to go back after a time and pare it down a bit so as not to offend. The entire play can be set on one stage with almost no scenery changes because I swear to fucking god nothing fucking happens in this book. But nothing too annoying, I promise you, and even if the characters and their actions/conversations have their naive and simplistic moments here and there, everything is very enjoyable and decidedly not over-the-top irritating.I'm becoming more and more a fan of switching views in stories, and this story is an added reason to why. Lia is a strong character who decides she wants to live life her way and runs away with Pauline on her wedding day.
