#BookReview: A Court This Cruel & Lovely (Kingdom of Lies #1) by Stacia Stark



ABOUT THIS BOOK: 
For years, when I fell asleep, I dreamed of a man with blazing green eyes and a cruel smile. 

The day I meet him, the ruthless mercenary leaves me for dead. 

Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae. 

The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt.
And they are burned. 

When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore. 

To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest. 

Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city. And he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden. The power that may just be the key to my survival. 

But the ruthless mercenary is hiding secrets of his own. Secrets that threaten the safety of everyone I love. Secrets that could tear this kingdom—and perhaps even this world—apart. 

Please note: A Court This Cruel and Lovely is an NA/adult romantasy book with steam. While this series is slow burn, the chili pepper rating will increase for each book.








RAITING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
 
REVIEW: 
"A Court This Cruel & Lovely" captivated me from the very first page, making it nearly impossible to set aside. The story pulls you in as the main character's life unravels, forcing her to confront a series of harsh truths about the world around her and her own hidden past. We are swept along on her journey as she navigates a new reality, meeting others who share her circumstances, reconnecting with family, forging deep friendships, and ultimately stepping into her own potential. The character development is compelling, and the revelations that come to light are both surprising and satisfying. I found myself deeply invested in the story and am eager to dive into the next installment of the series!
