The Kiss of Deception (The Remnent Chronicles #1) by Mary.E.Pearson

The Kiss of Deception (The Remnent Chronicles #1) - 4 Stars

Synopsis

A princess must find her place in a reborn world.

She flees on her wedding day.

She steals ancient documents from the Chancellor's secret collection.

She is pursued by bounty hunters sent by her own father.

She is Princess Lia, seventeen, First Daughter of the House of Morrighan.

The Kingdom of Morrighan is steeped in tradition and the stories of a bygone world, but some traditions Lia can't abide. Like having to marry someone she's never met to secure a political alliance.

Fed up and ready for a new life, Lia flees to a distant village on the morning of her wedding. She settles in among the common folk, intrigued when two mysterious and handsome strangers arrive—and unaware that one is the jilted prince and the other an assassin sent to kill her. Deceptions swirl and Lia finds herself on the brink of unlocking perilous secrets—secrets that may unravel her world—even as she feels herself falling in love.
 


Review

I enjoyed this book but found the first half a little slow to get going. But when it did I was fully engrossed in the story. I am not sure how I feel about the love triangle. Lia was an interesting character. I loved Rafe and enjoyed learning about Kayden. I admired the world building and will be carrying on with the series.
