But what REALLY rubbed me the wrong way was that she didn't even stop to consider what would happen to other people because of her actions. And here she does it, mainly because she can’t bear the thought of marrying someone she doesn’t love, someone who’s spineless enough to not react to an arranged marriage. I'm literally never following my dreams again because they just want me to read bad books and suffer. We meet a main character, who is fierce and strong and has a stubbornness in herself, that’s filled with love for others, but also herself.
Kiss of Deception is a story about a princess, Lia, who seeks a life outside that of royalty; a life in which she finally has control and is not forced to do something just because it is expected of her. Lia's family wanted to set her up in an arranged marriage to keep the peace, but it seemed to me they were already in a war regardless so I'm not sure how it would have played out. Kirkus Reviews also gave it a positive review, describing it as "rich and exciting" with a bold ending, despite being "slightly uneven".Watching my brother pick his nose would have been a more useful way to spend my time rather than on this pitiful excuse of a "fantasy" novel. The Kiss of Deception is a grand example of how a well-written novel can perfectly blend elements of original fantasy, electrifying love and thrilling stakes.
this book is adequate entertainment for what it is, but nothing that will most likely have a long-lasting effect on me. Only after I reveal, the plot began and I really started enjoying the book more and actually caring for the events and the characters. It does get a tad messy toward the end with no resolution, but that's the least of our girl's worries at that point. As for the romance part…Would you believe me if I told you that I love this book so much I don’t even care that there’s a very unnecessary why would you do this to my poor heart love triangle squeezed there somewhere? Okay, that may be overstating things only slightly (there were a couple of tiny things I took issue with) but I think it fair to overlook those small things in this case.
Running away equals TREASON to my hard-case father, who had my cousin hanged for desertion, and buried him in an unmarked grave along with his mother (hard-case father's SISTER), who threw herself off a cliff in despair.
I mean, I enjoyed most of it but there were some things that just NO, like the fact that the two guys fell in love with Lia in like 6 seconds after meeting her!Neither party is happy about it, but something IMPORTANT is at stake, so two self-sacrificing souls agree to wed for the greater good. And, strange as it may seem, I don't feel like criticizing her for her decision to flee minutes before her wedding (no spoiler, it's all in the blurb): I was happy to see, for once, one heroine who dares take big risks simply for the sake of her own happiness, even though I can't deny that at that time she showed little care for her kingdom.
As First Daughter, she is expected to have the revered gift of sight—but she doesn't—and she knows her parents are perpetrating a sham when they arrange her marriage to secure an alliance with a neighboring kingdom—to a prince she has never met.
Pearson’s young adult series, The Remnant Chronicles, focuses on a princess who’s determined to change her preordained fate. swoon especially one of them *wink wink*) Okay, okay I wont do that to you, I'll try to give you a little more. I probably won't even make much sense because I'm this close to turning into a pile of mush and I'd suggest you go with the flow and stop hunting for clues to why this book is awesome. We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within thirty (30) days of the day we confirm via e-mail that you are entitled to a refund for defective goods. The character at the end of the book is entirely changed from the naive and idealistic teen she starts out as, and that's the point.
Great Deal
