After saving King Aodren with her newfound Channeler powers, Britta only wants to live a peaceful life in her childhood home. Unfortunately, saving the King has created a tether between them she cannot sever, no matter how much she'd like to, and now he's insisting on making her a noble lady. And there are those who want to use Britta’s power for evil designs. If Britta cannot find a way to harness her new magical ability, her life—as well as her country—may be lost.
The stakes are higher than ever in the sequel to Ever the Hunted, as Britta struggles to protect her kingdom and her heart.
Opening line:
"A minute spent in a Shaerdanian tavern is a minute too long."
I couldn't stop reading! I love Erin's writing and characters and plots and twists. And twists.
This book was faster paced than the first one and full of new characters and intrigues.
It is written between three points of view: Britta, Cohen and the king. I enjoyed reading from each of their perspectives and REALLY loved watching them grow and change. It seemed they could neveer catch a break! There wasn't much down time in the fight for good. That being said, each of the three main characters learned some hard lessons, fought for what was right and came to accept who they were and their responsibilities.
The biggest take away for me was that we can choose who we are and what we want to become. No one should do that for us, not parents, not friends, not anyone. We know ourselves best. We should know our best selves.
Language: Some
Sex: kissing, skin-to-skin for survival heat
Violence: fighting, killing
