Ahhh... I was so pissed off!!!
This book picks up right where Heir Untamed left off...
Chey decides to stay in Latvala and give her and Sander's relationship an opportunity. She knows it'll be hard. I mean, you'll only be dating a Prince, the Future King!!!
She is immediately "warned" by the Queen - Sander's mother - that her relationship with him can't go anywhere... I call it more like being threathened... She accepts that not everything will be perfect, but knows that Sander is MORE than worth it.
But then something unexpected happens and Chey is kicked out of the country and sent back to Seattle... I was PISSED... oh was I mad...
Boy am I ever thankful for best friends. We meet Wynn and her brave and genius ideas and off we go back to Latvala.
Like the first book, this one had some action as well. We go thru the motions of a broken hearted Chey.
I love how no matter what, Sander keeps trying to have a relationship with her. I mean, he's only a prince.
Again, I suffered an array of emotions with book. From heart ache, to anger, to sorrow, to joy and happiness (I might have missed a couple of them). I couldn't get enough of this series. I couldn't get enough of Sander and even Mattias!

Smh I honestly can't even say anything. There is no plausible excuse for it taking me THIS long to read such a GOOD book. Now I admit it starts out a little slow but after about 15% in it is non stop action. My heart didn't stop pounding at any point. Whether it was during the rescue scene in the village. When the king threatened to kill her, when Sander showed back up or when they snuck her back into Latvala. I could not believe it was so action packed. I am floored. This book was AMAZEBALLS and I can not wait to get into the next book.

I enjoyed the writing style and the plot and intrigue up to a certain point when I felt the solution was ridiculous.
The scheme itself was clever including how bad things were but the whole way out didn't work for me.
I will carry on reading as I am invested in the series now but it was just so far fetched.
I did feel at times there was chemistry missing between the H/h, whether it was because he needed to be business like but it just didn't quite gel for me.

Ah, see. Now everything makes a whole lot more sense! Of course Viia wasn't the one orchestrating the attacks on Chey
Spoiler Aksel and Helina you sneaky little bastards
. But whatever happened to her once Chey and Sander learned she was innocent? *not important*
Chey's best friend Wynn made an appearance in this book. I didn't even know there was a best friend in the picture. I suspect the BFF will end up snatching herself her own royal (the devil in Armani at the Halloween party was totally Mattias!).
And speaking of Mattias I really missed him in this book :( . By this point I've given up hope of any romantic entanglements between him and Chey, but if nothing else then he can take on the role of adopted big brother, right? Right?
Natalia, I absolutely abhor. What the hell's her problem anyway? Dude, chill! She's such a nasty b*tch.
As a closing point Sander's
Spoiler proposal
sucked. He didn't put any thought AT ALL into it. I mean, they could've
Spoilergone riding, and then at some point he could've tackled her to the ground. And while laying there he could've produced the ring. Something like that would have been so much more special and sweet!
. Argh! men!
And my last comment, why on earth is it SO. DAMN. HARD. for people to know the difference between "conscious" and "conscience"? They aren't inter-changeable! They mean different things. I even had to look up both definitions because after seeing them used wrongly so many times I started doubting myself, and thought maybe I was mistaken, but no. All the instances it says conscious in the book it should say conscience instead.
Bonus comment: Bailey=Courtyard. In case anyone was wondering.

This second book was just as interesting and twisty as the first. The problem with reading 3 books in the same series in a row is that I don't remember specifics. This is an interesting series because it doesn't feel like a serial, which is something I don't care for. I felt more invested in the characters and the story itself. I like the fictional country of Latvala and the politics of the story. I don't know what else to say. I really should have paused and written the review, but I was on a roll with the reading. :) This one felt more like a thriller with a romantic subplot. Anyway, what an awesome review this is.
