Week 52 Review: Dawn of Fate and Valor

From Goodreads:
Born a royal heir.
Fallen from grace.

Born as the daughter of the Saintess Queen, now my hands are soaked in blood.

I am a killer.
I am Awakened.
I am a Queen without a throne.

Against the wishes of my escort guard, Solomon, I must seek the aid from the kingdom of my betrayer. As the connection between Solomon and I soars to new heights, one thing is becoming incredibly clear…

My newfound abilities have brought with them secrets.
Dreams torment me, and I am lost to understand what they mean … and why the image of my Goddess's lover looks like Solomon.

A mad prince, a lost friend, mortal enemies … I have to find a way to save my country and my sanity.

My Review:
Reading this book was just so great! I loved the first book, and I was looking forward for this one, and yeah, it was a fantastic sequel! I loved being back in this world with these characters, and boy, did the story continue on in this book!

This book starts as they're arriving at Bartoli, and doesn't end until they are leaving. And boy does a lot happen in this book! Like she came into her own powers, and gained some information, like the fact that she's the reincarnation of a goddess-and Solomon of said goddess's lover. Things that I'm so excited to continue on and finish in the fight! 

One thing that really boiled my blood is the way the Bartoli royals treated her, it was utterly horrendous, like their son didn't murder her father and take over her country, they were just so cavalier about it all. It was so immensely frustrating! 

Devenry really needed the time in this book. She survived what happened in the first with Solomon's help, but she was pretty helpless. She learns and trains and grows into herself in this book, to the point where she can go back and face Nasir, and I can't wait for that showdown! 

Loved reading this book, and I can't wait to see how the story is going to wrap up!
