Goodreads Synopsis:
As Acting Queen, one of
Sariphi's duties is to soothe and comfort the citizens of Ozmargo.
Embarking on a journey for this purpose, Sariphi is joined by Randbert,
the Captain of the Royal Bodyguards. Randbert's words and actions are
anything but royal, and they shake everyone's faith in him...everyone
besides Sariphi. But when Lord Brown, the local governor, is attacked,
suspicion falls on Randbert. Will Sariphi's trust be enough to clear
him? And after being separated from Leonhart for so long, what awaits
Sariphi when they're reunited?
Review:
It's to no one's surprise that we see Lante's sad backstory in this
volume. And it's, unsurprisingly, truly awful. Which makes how hard
Sariphi stands up for him all the more right, as she always sees the
good hidden inside people.
Once all of that wraps up, we get some sweetness between Sari and
Leo. Their relationship is growing ever closer, and it's sweet and
heartwarming, and necessary as their relationship gets more serious
and Sari gets closer to being accepted as queen.
There's a little break at the end of the volume, as we get a chapter
solely for Ilya. He's still hating on beasts, and then stumbles upon
the sweetest little armadillo boy, lost and in the wrong place at the
wrong time. I'm not sure if this will be a recurring thing, but we do
get to see him slowly becoming a better person here.
As always, these volumes are sweet and sappy and full of warm
goodness. Always a must buy.
