This is the second book in The Poisoned Pawn Duet, it takes up where A Fierce Princess finishes.

There is absolute chaos after the explosion and it seems the danger is getting worse. With most of the family safe, Anna is convinced that the culprit is someone from their inner circle.

With their security team on full alert, the Royal family must leave the safety of the Palace and go in different directions to try to distract whoever is trying to eliminate them. Anna and Logan's relationship is getting stronger and Logan must come to terms that he is Royalty also and the target is not only on his back but everyone else in the Royal family.

This is a good read and there are definitely some twists that you don't see coming with a HEA ending.

Thanks to NetGalley and Author Collective 20 for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Told from Logan's point of view, this story meshes well with the first book. A good story with lots of action that kept me reading late into the night. Overall a wonderful read. I received an e-book from NetGalley in return for an unbiased review.

To start things off, I didn’t realize this was book II of the The Poisoned Pawn Duet series and for obvious reasons, this wouldn’t be considered a standalone. From page one I was completely lost as to who the characters were, Princess Susanna and Prince Logan possible romantic relationship, and who was out to get them. There were no author notes nor disclaimer stating this, and due to me being unaware the “A Valiant Prince” was the sequel of the “The Fierce Princess”, it was a no brainer that I decided to drop this later to pick it back up later once reading the first novel. From what I have read so far, “A Valiant Prince” seems like a promising read and I look forward to re-reading this back again in the future.
