Intro
Kai and Paedyn are back in Ilya, but this time, Paedyn is to be Kitt's queen and Kai has the unfortunate fate of standing by as the Enforcer while the girl he loves marries his brother. But there is private life outside of public life, so Paedyn and Kai still find ways to sneak around without getting caught. Meanwhile, Kitt has changed- perhaps for the worse. when Kai left to go find Paedyn, Kitt was a shell of himself, but now Kai sees that Kitt is confident and kingly just like their father. Unfortunately for Paedyn, the kingdom still does not trust her as queen because she is an Ordinary, so she is forced to repeat her own trials to prove herself. Kai aides her as the Enforcer, and they are free to be in their relationship, until kitt starts notices how kai constantly chooses Paedyn over him, which puts Paedyn in a life threatening position. And when Paedyn finds out information that changes the way she will think about her life forever, she is forced to choose between the man she has married to save a kingdom and the man her heart truly belongs to.

Rating
8.5/10 I thought this book was amazing it had me giggling, kicking my feet, crying, and yelling in frusteration at all the different plot twists and directions I had no way of expecting it to go in. For most of the book I hated Kitt especially when he started saying Paedyn was no longer useful and when he tried to KILL HER I did not see that one coming. I really liked Kai's internal conflict with himself having to choose between fhe girl he loves and his brother. He knows what the right decision is, but he just can't bring himself to make it until Paedyn eventually makes it for him. Their relationship is stronger than ever in this book, tested in every way possible and they fight to the very end to be together until they are finally forced to see that there is no world in which they would work, until after Kitt's death when Kai proposes and they get married. However, I was confused by the epilogue because I didn't know what the message was of what the women were saying to Kitt, and I also am confused by who Mara is. Like I said before, I absolutely hate Kitt for wanting to kill Paedyn and have no use for her, but I was crying when he gave Kai the ring and told him to love each other for him. In the end the only thing he cared about was his brother being happy. This book was so unexpected in the best way and I can't believe we have to wait until September 2nd to read Fearful.
