This series kind of really irritates me but at the same time I have to see if it gets better. 
 There's so much deception in this book series that it kind of just rubs me the wrong way. I'm rooting for one character but I'm not sure they're going to get their happy ending and that just irritates me. I just read a book where the person I was rooting for is totally not the endgame and I really don't want that to happen again. 
 The plot of this book was there a plot sort of. There was a lot of character development since we now know who the assassin is and who the prince is. Lia actually irritates me guys. She is so in love with this one character that she can't really see the other character for what he is. 
 Overall, I have to read the next book because I have to know what happens. I think this is probably a 3.5 maybe 4 star book for me.
