Kia wants more than survival. She wants vengeance and her freedom.
Kia has joined Lord Rial’s elite guard and is collecting secrets. Secrets that can get her killed. The pretense of being Rial's consort offers some protection, but neither of them trusts the other. When the chance for retribution on her father's betrayers comes, she takes it. But there is a price to pay.
Her feelings toward Rial change, and Kia is shocked when she discovers the emperor’s schemes include experiments on his son. If her ambition to destroy the emperor is to succeed, she must rescue Rial. But are her desperate last-minute plans enough to save him?

A good 2nd story in the trilogy
I first read these 3 books in ebook form and was impressed with them to the point where I have read them twice over a relatively short period.
The audiobook versions don't disappoint, bringing nuances to the main characters that my amateurish readings didn't have. Both of the main characters are engaging, although they are somewhat frustrating in their lack of communication between each other. The only quibble I have is that the narrator/performer often rushes her delivery, with little, if any, breathing space between phrases/sentences on occasion. This might, of course, be a resuit of the editing process, and not the narrator's.
The story romps along at a good to fast pace, and I found it not easy to pause the narration. You also need to be tolerant of the americanisms.
Let's hope Book 3 is not delayed too long. And as a passing comment, I wish the Irish would learn to spell their names sensibly, what with Siobhan and Saoirse and similar to frustrate us English speakers {;-)}.
