dame_arcane 's review for:
A Dance of Lies
by Brittney Arena
medium-paced
4.5⭐ I honestly enjoyed this story. If you're not a fan of the MCs facing struggle and difficult decisions at every turn this one is not for you. It has its sweet and even spicy moments but most of it the MC is in a rough position. All I can say is trust the process, trust the author. Which I feel is very lacking in the communities of readers and watchers of movie/shows these day, is trusting the person who is telling you their story. Everyone thinks they're an expert now, which preempts any enjoyment you might have felt because it's not something they're used to, so it's wrong rather than refreshingly different. It's maddening.
This story is full of court intrigue and espionage, a woman being broken down by men and trying to change her internal narrative of feeling broken due to chronic illness caused by the actions of one of these men. I also like that we really didn't know who the love interest is throughout the story. It has its fantasy elements and there's a prophecy. I love the way dance and performance is described. I will be reading the next one because I need to know what happens next.
This can be read whenever but the warmer months of spring 🌼 and ⛱️. There are intimate moments in this but nothing to be scandalized by.
