Description
Sixteen
year-old Bree has spent her life as a barmaid, innocent to her father’s past
and happily free from the Elemental gifts that would condemn her to a life in
the King’s army.
Until the day that three Elemental soldiers recognize her father as a traitor
to the throne and he's thrown in jail—along with the secrets from his last
mission as the King’s assassin. Secrets that could help the King win a war. Secrets
he refuses to share.
Desperate to escape before the King’s capricious whims prove her and her
father’s downfall, Bree bargains with him: information for their lives. It’s a
good trade. And she has faith she’ll get them both out of the King’s grasp with
time.
But that was before the discovery that she’s the weapon the King’s been waiting
for.
Now, time is running out. To save her father’s life and understand her own,
Bree must unravel the knot of her father’s past before the King takes his life–
and uses her to bring a nation to its knees.

Jennifer B, Reviewer
OMG! this story happily surprised me, I read the blurb and got curious and it definitely hooked me in. While I had moments of annoyances here and there. like in the beginning going to check screaming in the woods? but going to just leave my axe here on the ground? like don't be a stupid heroine.
I liked the father daughter relationship I thought it was really well done and interesting. I didn't love the romance, I don't really have much of an opinion on it really it wasn't really filled out, I get they have attraction and I feel a bit of sparks at times with them but didn't seem to focus on it that much. I really like trying to figure out Bree's history and who she really is I think that will be really interesting to see play out in the next book.
