An obstinate girl who will not be married. A soldier desperate to prove himself. A kingdom on the brink of war.

With a sharp tongue and an unruly temper, Sage Fowler is not what they’d call a lady―which is perfectly fine with her. Deemed unfit for marriage, Sage is apprenticed to a matchmaker and tasked with wrangling other young ladies to be married off for political alliances. She spies on the girls―and on the soldiers escorting them.

As the girls' military escort senses a political uprising, Sage is recruited by a handsome soldier to infiltrate the enemy ranks. The more she discovers as a spy, the less certain she becomes about whom to trust―and Sage becomes caught in a dangerous balancing act that will determine the fate of her kingdom.

Erin Beaty was born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana, which means she can't drive a tractor, but she won't eat veggies that come from a can. She graduated from the US Naval Academy with a degree in rocket science and somehow always ended up writing her study group's lab reports. After serving in the fleet as a weapons officer and a leadership instructor, she resigned to pursue her side hobby of populating the Church of Rome. It still amazes her when other people want to hear the stories that come out of her head.

She and her husband have five children, two cats, and a vegetable garden and live wherever the navy tells them to go.

I loved it. At first I thought it would be something like The Winner's Curse, but it wasn't like that at all. It got me trapped from the first moment, I didn't want to stop reading because I needed to know what happened next. The story is impeccable, full of plots, secrets, love in its proper measure, betrayal and many plot twist. The characters are very complete, with guts and brave. Erin has done a great job with this book, it has become one of my favorites. I look forward to buying The Traitor's Ruin to continue this story.

Me ha encantado. Al principio pensé que sería algo así como The Winner's Curse, pero no ha sido así para nada. Me atrapó desde el primer momento, no quería dejar de leer porque necesitaba saber qué pasaría después. La historia es impecable, llena de tramas, secretos, amor en su justa medida, traición y muchos giros inesperados. Los personajes son muy completos, independientes y valientes. Erin ha hecho un gran trabajo con este libro, se ha convertido en uno de mis favoritos. Espero con ansias comprar The Traitor's Ruin para continuar la historia de Sage y Alex.

4'8/5 stars.
