The Bridge Kingdom

Hmmm how do I feel? how do I feel? I hate when books are so good like 5 star feeling and then it takes a turn for the worst and now I'm confused. The turn for the worst happened the last 30% with a significant amount of plot development that should have been spaced out and “I love you” that came out of left field.

I adored the setting and deep plot and political development within this novel. The relationship was so cute for the first 70%. Just when I thought the enemies were slightly becoming lovers, I love you's are being thrown around. I don't know why we had to have full blown love before the plot twist. It felt rushed.

Such an amazing concept. Girl raised to be a killing machine and infiltrate an enemy kingdom through marriage, her new husband shows her a kingdom that wasn't what she was expecting. I am surprised to be saying this but this could have been a little longer or dare I say simply paced better? I don't know if I'll continue this series but I'm really sad because I had extremely high hopes. Please tell me if I should continue!!
