The Veiled Kingdom

From USA Today Bestselling Author Holly Renee, author of the Stars and Shadows series, comes a scorching new fantasy romance that ignites the pages with relentless danger, forbidden passion, and the intoxicating allure of enemies to lovers.
Fleeing my father's cruelty, the wicked king who robbed me of a future, I face death in the streets, caught between a rebellion and a tyrant's reign.
Captured by those sworn to kill me, the rebels remain blind to my true identity-the missing daughter of the despised king. Faced with an impossible choice, I stand before them: join the rebels or face their blades.
Yet, Dacre, the son of the ruthless rebellion commander, becomes torn between suspicion and a desire that mirrors my own. He allows no one to touch me, tries to protect me, yet threatens me at every turn.
As secrets are weaved beyond our hidden realm, a fierce battle unfolds within me. As I get closer to the rebels, and their cause, my loyalty to my kingdom clashes with my undeniable devotion to Dacre and the burning connection between us.
In a world where love and hate are two edges of the same blade, I find myself caught in a delicate dance between forbidden desire and my looming destiny.

That being said I do think the spicy scenes were just too much for me and took away from the overall plot of the book. I would have loved to see more of a struggle dynamic as Nyra begins to trust and feel a part of the rebellion instead of it feeling so rushed. I did enjoy the storyline and hope the next book isn't so intense and a little more focused on the plot instead of spicy scenes.
That being said, I do think the overall plot is still interesting and I'm excited to see where the next book takes us in regards to Nyra and her father, and how she's going to handle being labelled a traitor to her own kingdom and the rebellion.
