The story follows America and her journey to deciding if she wants to be princess and her feeling between two boys.  All while there is the have and have not outside the palace which has caused a group to want to bring down the royal family.  Then there is Maxon and his decision on who he wants as not only his wife but the queen. There were 35 to start now there is only 6. Is America the one or is she not?  

This story line is good, but Americas back and forth and her juggling the feelings of two boys hearts is annoying.  I also think this book could have been cut down, at times its like it's stuck on replay.  Only minor changes go about each day and each girl does the same thing.
