Centuries ago, the royal family of Adria was killed…or so everyone thought.

Now Grace Blakely knows the truth: There was one survivor, and that survivor’s blood runs through her veins. This simple fact could cause a revolution—which is why some people will stop at nothing to keep it from coming to light.

There is only one way for Grace to save herself, save her family, and save the boy she loves. She must outmaneuver her foes, cut through the web of lies that has surrounded her for years, and go back to the source of all her troubles, despite the risk.

If she wins, she will inherit a throne.

And if she loses, she will inherit the fate of all the dead princesses who came before her.
Review

Holy crap!!! This is the best book in this series and I've read this year. I'm kind of still recovering. I've enjoyed every Ally Carter book I've read, but this was her best work.

I was constantly on edge of my seat and trying to figure out what was happening next. The story was fast-paced and gave me everything I needed-even the things I didn't know I needed.

Grace was wonderful and really grew up throughout this story. I think it will be interesting to re-read know that I know what happens. I'm curious to see her development and any foreshadowing there is earlier in the series.

Thanks for reading!
Holly
