Summary: "As the sole heir of Pavan, Aurora's been groomed to be the perfect queen. She's intelligent and brave and honorable. But she's yet to show any trace of the magic she'll need to protect her people. To keep her secret and save her crown, Aurora's mother arranges for her to marry a dark and brooding Stormling prince from another kingdom. At first, the prince seems like the perfect solution to all her problems. He'll guarantee her spot as the next queen and be the champion her people need to remain safe. But the more secrets Aurora uncovers about him, the more a future with him frightens her."
I'm conflicted by my feelings about this story. It is unique, interesting, and magical, but also confusing and ultimately disappointing. It has potential, but was not quite executed the way that I wanted. The storm magic was wonderful, ultimately the book's saving grace.
