Publisher's summary

In the sequel to Traitor's Kiss, a war breaks out between nations. Sage Fowler must escape from enemy territory to reconnect with her first love, Captain Alex Quinn.

A captain with a secret. A spy with a mission. A kingdom on the verge of ruin.

After proving her worth as a deft spy and strategic matchmaker, Sage Fowler is now comfortably positioned in high society as the royal tutor. When she learns of a secret mission, she jumps at the chance to serve her kingdom once more - and to be reunited with her fiance, Captain Alex Quinn. However, Sage's headstrong insistence clashes with Alex's gruff military exterior. And after a skirmish with a bordering kingdom, they're separated when tragedy strikes. Now in enemy territory, Sage desperately scrambles to complete Alex's reconnaissance mission. Can she save her kingdom once more?

"One of the most hotly anticipated young adult fantasy reads of 2017." (Bustle)

"An action-packed, expertly plotted story, drenched in double crosses and intrigue, with an irresistible heroine and a sweet and sexy romance." (Publishers Weekly)

"Complex characterization, deftly layered adventure story, and [a] balanced blend of political maneuvering, romantic interludes, and action scenes." (Kirkus Reviews)

"Beaty balances a taut web of deceit...readers will be carried away by the mystery." [The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (BCCB)]

Even better than the first book!

I loved The Traitor's Kiss and The Traitor's Ruin was even better! Alex very easily might be my favorite hero in YA fiction right now.

First Audiobook

The narrator was engaging and used different voices for each character. it got me through hours of long drives and sounded similar to how I imagined it in my head.

It was my oasis

For me the second book was much better and more interesting than the first one. 2/3 of the book I was glued to this and couldn’t stop counting hours at work before I get a chance to continue to listen. The book did slow down a bit in the middle but it was all expected. I loved the Casmuni arc and everything about exploring a new foreign country from Sage’s POV. And by the end it felt more real than the first one, more darker and mature.
I’ve read 1st one in print but then I’ve heard a sample and was hooked on this narrator and for me she is one of the two reasons I’ve enjoyed this book so much. Kathleen has done a very good job.

struggle to finish

I wanted to love this book, but it was so slow. first book was the same. Characters are likeable, and story is decent just not much action.
