Sonya’s gift to read other's auras is gone - and as much as it made her life challenging in so many ways, it was also an essential part of her. Moving forward in a country at war, on two fronts no less, feels nearly impossible without her ability to read emotions. Life doesn’t stop, however, and if she and Anton, the former prince, have any chance of succeeding and leading their new country to victory, Sonya has to find a way to contribute on new terms. With a kidnapped princess and an evil former emperor to content with, she knows the odds are against them.
Turns out, this is the third in a trilogy - but the author did a great job helping me find my feet and I never really felt lost in the action. The world building is interesting - the only magical element is this female ability to read others’ emotions and it’s so unique and rare that much of the plot revolves around not just Soyna but others with this gift. I liked this twist on magic, for the most part. Sometimes the discussion about it felt a little repetitive but the action moved right along and I was always happy to pick it up.
