A noble. An assassin. A girl with a past....

Using skills she's honed for years, she helps the abused to regain control of their lives. But when the Royal Family summons her to the palace for a summer filled with gossip and eligible bachelors, she must conceal her illicit alter-ego while rebuilding relationships lost. But she is forced to decide between her safety and her integrity when Prince Alekzander, the next King, attempts to hire her to take out a powerful man at court: Chancellor Julian Marlow. With her head, and her heart, on the line, Christiana must decide what type of future she is truly meant to lead.

I LOVED IT!

I absolutely loved it! This book is full of action, drama, suspense and romance. The narration was excellent and kept me entertained. The author did an excellent great job with the character builds and plot. I look forward to reading more books in this series! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I was pleasantly surprised and impressed

I enjoyed this new series and hope that the author continues with the audio recording of the rest of this series and however, on certain exceptions I do enjoy stories about elements similar to this type of story but normally I'm a bit more paranormal fantasy however this was one of the exceptions . I thought the narrator was great and found it so easy to get into. That being said I was offered a free copy in exchange for my honest and true feedback and I don't leave feedback if I don't enjoy the book. So I definitely recommend trying this audio book if its has peaked your interest. Please keep it coming!!! JUST WONDERFUL!!!!

Exciting story!

I really enjoted this. The narrator was excellent. Her pacing and range of voices for each character was fantastic. The story was fun. Its a bit different but I loved that a female had some power. Historically that didn't happen as much as it should. Its also a romance. Christiana is titled and holds that title without a man. She is sent to the castle for the summer to find a husband. She also leads a seperate life and prefers being single. The romance is a romance but one of the things I really loved about it is the romance doesn't overwhelm the story. All in all its a great read!

Interesting idea that could be better executed

Disclaimer: I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. An interesting idea of a character living a double life but unfortunately the characters come across feeling a little shallow and uninteresting. The vocabulary in the book could definitely be improved, as certain words are overused and does not feel like they are used in the correct situation. The conflicts that occurred also feel quite staged and it seemed to have stifled character development of some characters. It was disappointing because the book started out really strong and lost it's shine slowly as the book progresses. Narration by Rachel Leblang was very well done. She portrays all the characters very well and distinctively. It was a joy listening to her narration.

Overly Concerned With Formality But Still Good

I enjoyed it, and I blasted my way through it. However, it did feel unnecessarily bogged down and beholden to Royal Manners. Like, there's a lot of canned responses and "conversations" that are polite nothing. And I know that part of that is part of the genre, but it felt heavy in the reading process to me (especially when it's a fantasy world that can literally just Not do that). The love triangle was a bit predictable. Love a good female friendship, though!

Truly, I did mostly enjoy and am planning on reading the sequel. Had surprising Ella Enchanted vibes.
