Goodreads Synopsis:

 

A red-haired princess loses her family and her kingdom… Now she must rise and fight for her throne!

Princess Yona lives an ideal life as the only princess of her kingdom. Doted on by her father, the king, and protected by her faithful guard Hak, she cherishes the time spent with the man she loves, Su-won. But everything changes on her 16th birthday when tragedy strikes her family!

Review:

 

Yona and Hak are doing what they can to stop, or at least stall, the impending war. They attempt to see Su-Won, but that confrontation might be for a later time still. Instead, we get a surprise reunion with Min-Su, a surprise supporter of Yona.

Similar to Tae-Jun, who also appears in this volume, Min-Su seems to be a surprise companion for Yona. Someone who she knew before, whether good or bad, who Yona ends up influencing in bigger ways than expected.

Yona and Hak separate in this volume, off to do what they can to stall and negotiate this thing. But! Also! Surprise Yona and Hak Development! Ah!

Also! That ending! Cliffhanger!

I can't say any more about this volume, because it's all spoilers. But this was a surprisingly huge volume in progress and plot, and I'm so excited to read the next one, I cannot wait.
