Fresh from an epic victory over sorceress Morgana Le Fay to keep the doorway between worlds safely closed, Emry Merlin should be flying high. She no longer has to hide that she's a girl wizard in Camelot, and the battle has brought her closer than ever to Prince Arthur, with whom she has slowly fallen in love. Even her hapless but beloved twin brother Emmett has joined her at court.
But Emry is hiding a secret, and she's not the only one. Her magic has become unpredictable and dangerous, casting spells that she doesn't intend. Despite destiny acting like he's worthy, Prince Arthur knows he doesn't have what it takes to rule Camelot--until a terrible tragedy forces his hand. And though Guinevere is hooking up with the hottest guy in the palace, it's not who she's actually betrothed to...
Return to the hotbed of thirst and scandal that is Camelot in this highly anticipated sequel to The Other Merlin. Emry can now openly train as a female wizard, but life at court is far from easy when her magic is starting to become uncontrollable, along with her crush on the future King Arthur.

Not quite as good as [b:The Other Merlin 56631877 The Other Merlin (Emry Merlin, #1) Robyn Schneider https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1622045573l/56631877.SY75.jpg 86681465], but the middle book in a trilogy is always hard to pull off. The mix of classic Arthurian legend with Beverly Hills 90210 aesthetic is a great deal of fun. (Did you know they played beer pong in medieval times?) Although the Emry/Arthur relationship takes a few steps back from the promising end of The Other Merlin, other secondary romances flourish. And every time I feared there would be a Big Misunderstanding, the characters talked it out instead. Best of all, the Knights of the Round Table are starting to come together as a disparate group with a common goal of protecting Camelot. Which is good news, although because one Big Bad is vanquished in this installment, the Biggest Bad is still lurking. In her Acknowledgements, Robyn Schneider proposes that her readers meet back in a year for the “thrilling conclusion to this series.” I know I'll be there.
