"You are chosen Sadie, there is no skidding around this mere fact. Fighting it won't change the inevitable. War is here, and it is time you take your place. Or is it truly death that you prefer"

This is a powerful and heartbreaking story of love, politics, authority, and sacrifice!❤

I just love to read stories that have prophecies in them. They make a story ten thousand times more interesting! Sadie, a girl who never explored the world outside of her little garden, suddenly learns that she has been prophesied to marry the new king. But make no mistake as Sadie is no ordinary human! She has powers which even she was unaware of until she met Preston, the prince who was to become the new king.

But will the people of Genai accept her as their queen? Will the kingdom welcome their new queen with open arms? More than anything, will the crown prince ever accept her as his wife???

I really appreciate the very well developed character arcs of not just Sadie and Preston, but also of Lacy and Blaire❤ Honestly, Lacy is my most favorite character❤ (trying very hard to avoid giving any spoilers
