THE SECOND BOOK IN THE HEART-STOPPING WINNER'S TRILOGY: an irresistible story of forbidden romance and class warfare
'Every line in The Winner's Curse is beautifully written. The story is masterfully plotted. The characters' dilemmas fascinated me and tore at my heart... I loved it. I want more' Kristin Cashore, author of the Graceling Realm books
It's a fight to the death, where no one will escape a strike to the heart...
Lady Kestrel's engagement to Valoria's crown prince calls for great celebration: balls and performances, fireworks and revelry. But to Kestrel it means a cage of her own making. Embedded in the imperial court as a spy, she lives and breathes deceit and cannot confide in the one person she really longs to trust...
While Arin fights to keep his country's freedom from the hands of his enemy, he suspects that Kestrel knows more than she shows. As Kestrel comes closer to uncovering a shocking secret, it might not be a dagger in the dark that cuts him open, but the truth.
Lies will come undone, and Kestrel and Arin learn just how much their crimes will cost them in this second book in the breathtaking Winner's Trilogy.

DON'T TOUCH ME I'M SCARED Alright, it took me a lot longer to get into this book than I thought it would. However once I did get into it I loved it soooo sooo sooo much! I love the world building, I love the characters, I love how their love is not something that's natural to the people around them and thus they doubt it and each other and it causes problems that they don't even understand fully - it's chaotic, it's terrible and it's beautiful! Also; could someone send a note to Marie Rutkoski about returning my heart, preferably in one piece?
