Resumen del Editor

In this epic debut fantasy, inspired by Renaissance France, an outcast finds herself bound to a disgraced lord and entangled in his plot to overthrow the king. Perfect for fans of Grave Mercy and Red Queen!

Brienna desires only two things: to master her passion and to be chosen by a patron. Growing up in Valenia at the renowned Magnalia House should have prepared her. While some are born with a talent for one of the five passions - art, music, dramatics, wit, and knowledge - Brienna struggled to find hers until she chose knowledge. However, Brienna’s greatest fear comes true: she is left without a patron.

Months later, her life takes an unexpected turn when a disgraced lord offers her patronage. Suspicious of his intent, she reluctantly accepts. But there is much more to his story, for there is a dangerous plot to overthrow the king of Maevana - the rival kingdom of Valenia - and restore the rightful queen, and her magic, to the throne.

With war brewing, Brienna must choose which side she will remain loyal to: passion or blood.

Love, betrayal, friends and family

This book surprised me!!! It had a lot of build up to the point I was about to move on...but I stuck with it and I am glad I did!!! Twist I didn’t see coming, love, betrayal and rebuilding ones home swept me away...

Rebecca Ross never disappoints

Some have been critical about the beginning of the book. It may have initially been a bit slow but still suspenseful with excellent description. I’m immediately purchasing the sequel to begin now! Loved it!

Marvelous

I Love this book! The bonds of Sisterhood and loyalty are wonderful! These young women all discovering who they are and finding their paths, their friendships and bonds help each other rise in their own discovery. Iron sharpens Iron!

This story drew me in from the beginning. As Brienna accepts the challenges laid before her and has difficult decisions to make, I found myself totally rallying for her! Cheering for her as she finds her strength and discovers herself!

It's totally Marvelous!!

Fantistic Book

This is my first adventure with this author. Exclent job. I received it in a monthly book box . So happy or I would not have discovered her. Grios you from page one. A journey from a girl who doesn't know who her father is to could be king. EVERYONE pick it up.

good story

I enjoyed the performance a lot. the story line was interesting but predictable. The use of extreme description became tiresome and felt like I was lead through the story instead of being allowed to experience it. I would recommend this book to friends because it is enjoyable over all.

an engaging YA novel

the story was engaging enough that couldn't stop listening. and, the narrator was spot on

captivating story with amazing narrator

at first I was a little hesitant in this story. But as the story progressed I found myself wanting to listen more and more. I am excited to see if there will be another book although I'm happy with how it ended.

Coming of age heroine story

Brienna is an easy character to love. Her growth & alternate path that ultimately leads to her destiny is beautiful. Rebecca’s line writing is so beautiful & descriptive. I throughly enjoyed this book!
