Two decades ago Myra was the Kepler’s Princess who had to fake her death to live and save the life of her two young sons. Now with a new identity, a new face and a new family she must never tell who she truly is if she wants to keep her family alive.
Even though Myra had to abandon her two eldest children, princes Liam and Haimirich, she now watches them from afar. She is unable to help them during their darkest hour, Liam who is brain dead from an attack on his life and Rich is reeling from being promoted from the spare to the heir. But soon all their lives are about to change when Liam dies, what can Myra do? Will Rich become the new king, or will they find out that the queen never truly died?
Overall rating 4/5
If you love a quick, clean space romance this book is for you. There are many parallels in this book to the real world, such as the correlation between Princess Diana and her children (see if you can spot them). Also the name of the president of Mars and his son’s names…. and the reference to a virus similar to that of Covid. I would have loved to see more world building to pull the reader into the world of Myra.

I found that there were too many characters, with 65% of them becoming irrelevant after a single page. If you're invested in the series, it’s still worth giving it a try but not my favourite.

This is book 2 in a series so I definitely need to go back and read book 1! There were a lot of characters and maybe due to missing book 1 (which I will rectify) I didn't follow all of their importance or relevance to the story... I was intrigued by the world and overall plot though, so I'll have to give this a further chance and go back and start over from the beginning.

Thank you to Netgalley for the eArc of this book!

this was a strong sequel in the Chronicles of a Faked Death series, it had everything that I was hoping for and enjoyed the overall concept for this book. It had the characters that I was hoping for and enjoyed the overall feel of this book. It had a great scifi element that I was hoping for and enjoyed how the concept worked overall. B. Kinde and Renee Field has a great writing style and enjoyed the way it was written, I can't wait for more from them and this series.

I found this book extremely interesting and I cannot wait to see what happens next. At the start I wasn’t sure about how I felt about it but the more I read the more interested I became and was constantly trying to find time to read it. I love the story line, I love the plot twists, and I love the characters. The writing had a simple flow to it that was just easy to follow along with yet not to easy to the point you predicted everything. I love the intensity I felt through this book as well as the swell of emotions that swept me up every page of the way.

I haven’t read a fantasy book in a long time but I really enjoyed this one. 4.5 stars but rounded up to 5. I can’t wait to read more!

This book follows Dyanna, now Myra, as she attempts to continue her new life away from the royal court after Jones' rescue and her subsequent reconstruction and witness protection-esque program.

There are entirely too many characters in this book, and about 65% of them could very much be done away with. The haha-references to real life people fall flat (Eldon Musk, president of Mars???) and I was never entirely sure if I was supposed to be laughing at the book or with it. It's entirely possibly I'm too stupid for this book, but lord knows I tried. Also the amount of random sabotage-adjacent explosions was entirely too high. And her son's wife pulling the plug because he was braindead, blowing up the hospital, then kidnapping her to take the blame??

I tried. Thank you for the eARC.

I truly enjoyed this book. It was interesting and intriguing. I didn’t feel like it was too slow. The character were planned out so perfectly. I couldn’t put this book down.
