(The Pledge, #3)

Add to Goodreads
True love—and world war—is at stake in the conclusion to The Pledge trilogy, a dark and romantic blend of dystopia and fantasy.
Charlie, otherwise known as Queen Charlaina of Ludania, has become comfortable as a leader and a ruler. She’s done admirable work to restore Ludania’s broken communications systems with other Queendoms, and she’s mastered the art of ignoring Sabara, the evil former queen whose Essence is alive within Charlie. Or so she thinks.
When the negotiation of a peace agreement with the Queendom of Astonia goes awry, Charlie receives a brutal message that threatens Ludania, and it seems her only option is to sacrifice herself in exchange for Ludanian freedom.
But things aren’t always as they seem. Charlie is walking into a trap—one set by Sabara, who is determined to reclaim the Queendoms at any cost.

Why I'm Wishing...
I've been enjoying this trilogy so far. I thought book one was better than the sequel, but the sequel was still pretty good :) I see the hood has come off! I can't wait to see what this book has in store for us considering its the final book I believe!

  12. Beautiful cover! I was going through books last night for my WOW & almost picked this. I didn't pick it because I hadn't read books 1&2 yet. I sometimes don't read book 1 until the series is out and complete. I am the worst at waiting for a follow up!
