A bold girl, a kingdom under attack, magic everywhereI devoured it in one sitting! This book is one wild ride! Tamora Pierce on Stormrise Nothing is quite as it seems in this thrilling YA fantasy adventure by Jillian Boehme, The Stolen Kingdom! For a hundred years, the once-prosperous kingdom of Perin Faye has suffered under the rule of the greedy and power-hungry Thungrave kings. Maralyth Graylaern, a vintner's daughter, has no idea her hidden magical power is proof of a secret bloodline and claim to the throne. Alac Thungrave, the kings second son, has always been uncomfortable with his position as the spare heirand the dark, stolen magic that comes with ruling. When Maralyth becomes embroiled in a plot to murder the royal family and seize the throne, a cat-and-mouse chase ensues in an adventure of dark magic, court intrigue, and forbidden love. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Happy opening day for #LLSGPS !

After crazy traveling for the past few days - a wedding out of town and then quickly back to my father‘s retirement party - I was happy to sit on my couch and open this lovely package from @TheAromaofBooks filled with so many fun goodies and sweet scents and two new books to enjoy over my summer break coming up! Thank you so much for swapping with me!

TheAromaofBooks I haven't had my phone since Friday, and it's been oddly freeing 😂 But I am looking forward to having my pocket camera back!! 1y

There were so many likeable aspects of this book, and I felt like it was equally driven by the characters and the plot, which I really enjoyed. If you‘re looking for another world to escape into, this book is definitely for you! With an interesting magic system, morally questionable characters, and royal kidnappings, what more could you ask for? This is the type of feel-good fantasy book that I truly adore reading!

This was surprisingly good for a rather generic YA fantasy romance.

Boehme managed to make the characters and their love story believable by letting them both acknowledge that they had known each other only for a short time.

A further plus: it's a standalone that delivers a solid story in under 350 pages.

3/5 Goodreads stars

InquisitiveKristine Thanks for the recommendation! Romance clichés are way too common in YA and it‘s refreshing that there‘s a book with a more realistic/ honest portrayal of relationships ? 4y

The Stolen Kingdom follows Maralyn and Alec, one a wine makers daughter with a dangerous secret, the
other the third in line to a throne and unspeakable trove of stolen magic. Everything changes the day
someone throws a sack over Mara's head and whisks her away to unwillingly aid in a coup.
I highly recommend The Stolen Kingdoms to fans of
magic, espionage and low-key enemies to lovers, especially to those who enjoyed The Red Queen or
Ruined.
