Wild Savage Stars

Captivating and frustrating. The attitude of princess esualt is absolutely aggravating all you want to do the entire book is to slap some kind of sense into the girl, duty before love. Unfortunately, that is not the case, she marries the king and branwen, sacrifices piece by piece of herself once again, it is heart breaking, the ending was amazing, we have so much that goes on, betrayal, hatred inside a burning flame grows, promises are made, deception is close, and we are left curious to know what will happen next when a war has started and the true queen tries to change her own destiny.

Synopsis: Inspired by the legend of Tristan and Iseult, Wild Savage Stars is the spellbinding sequel to Sweet Black Waves.

Branwen has a secret powerful enough to destroy two kingdoms.

Her ancient magic led to a terrible betrayal by both her best friend, the princess Essy, and her first love, Tristan. Now this same magic is changing Branwen. Adrift in a rival court, Branwen must hide the truth from the enemy king by protecting the lovers who broke her heart―and finds herself considering a darker path.

Not everyone wants the alliance with Branwen’s kingdom to succeed―peace is balanced on a knife’s edge, and her only chance may be to embrace the darkness within…

Review: Holy cow this book is so good! I loved seeing the continued tale of Tristan, Essy, and Branwen. I loved seeing their characters become more developed and seeing how new characters further their journey. I also loved to see the original tale more developed and I thought the author did well to convey the message of the original tale through Branwen. 

However, the book is still very slow paced.

Verdict: Loved this book so much!
