**THREE DAUGHTERS.
ONE CROWN.
ALL-OUT WAR.**
**Gaela. Ruthless commander.** I am the rightful heir of Innis Lear. No more will I wait in the shadows and watch my mother's murderer bleed my island dry.
The king's hold on the crown must end--willingly or at the edge of my sword.
**Regan. Master manipulator.** To secure our place on the throne, I must produce an heir. Countless times I have fed the island's forests my blood. Yet, my ambition is cursed.
No matter what or whom I must destroy, I will wield the magic of Innis Lear.
**Elia. Star-blessed priest.** My sisters hide in the shadows like serpents, waiting to strike our ailing king. I must protect my father, even if it means marrying a stranger.
We all have to make sacrifices. Love and freedom will be mine.
**An island at risk and an empire poised for ruin; the line of Lear will be soaked in blood.**

This was such a well written and unique book. I was a little worried when I got this that it would be too similar to Three Dark Crowns, but I had nothing to worry about. This book was great and I easily fell in love with the story and the characters. I also really enjoyed all the flashback chapters that helped show what the characters were dealing with and how the past shaped them.
I received this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review

Look, I think this just isn't my thing and after not finishing another book recently about sister princesses, it was unfairly colored. I just couldn't get behind it and I'm tired of the hothead warrior princess who doesn't want love, another princess married only to have children/benefit her kingdom, and the overly pure/innocent princess. I couldn't get into it.
It is also a slow build, leisurely paced, which just doesn't mash well with me.
I don't really want to give this a rating though because I know so many people who would love this writing style and sink into it like molasses. So, bummer for me, but this is one I might recommend to others.
