Red (True Reign, #2)

by Jennifer Anne Davis

Sentenced to be executed.

Betrayed. Alone.

Hanged on the gallows.

Rema thought her life was over, but she was wrong.

Saved by a rebel force she’d only ever heard rumors about, Rema finds herself in a forbidden place. She is finally safe—free from the king and Prince Lennek. But not everything is as it seems at the rebel fortress. Secrets are whispered, and loyalties are tested. Once Rema uncovers the truth of her heritage, will she flee? Or will she ascend to the throne, taking on the responsibility of an entire kingdom?

Now that Darmik knows Rema’s true identity, he’s on a quest to save her. But when an Emperion assassin arrives on Greenwood Island, Darmik knows he doesn’t have very long to find her. In a deadly game with high stakes, will Darmik remain loyal to his family? Or will he break away and join the rebels?

Kingdoms rise and fall.

Heroes are born and made.

But one thing remains the same—love conquers all.

It was a very, very good book, but I pretty much knocked off a whole star because of Savenek.

1) It was an annoying love triangle.
2) Savenek went from totally ignoring Rema to being like OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MARRY ME.
3) Then two minutes later he turned into a sexist pig, being all like, "Rema can't be queen! She's just a woman! She doesn't know anything! ...oh, but Rema, I still love you... will you still marry me?" Fuck right off, Savenek.

I think it mostly annoyed me that Rema never seemed that bothered by Savenek's annoying, horrible attitude with regards to her being queen. I wanted her to call him out, tell him to STFU or else. She just let him talk shit about her right in front of her face and deliberately ignore her orders.
