The City of Veils by S Usher Evans

The City of Veils (Princess Vigilante, #1)

by S. Usher Evans

The City of Veils is a brand new YA Epic Fantasy from S. Usher Evans about a princess vigilante who must hang up her mask and become queen after her father and brother are murdered.

 

For the past three years, Brynna has been patrolling the streets of Forcadel as a masked vigilante, protecting the innocent and beating up bad guys. Her current target is Lord Beswick, a slumlord businessman who keeps the townsfolk in a vicious poverty cycle. But one fateful evening, she's captured by Felix, the captain of the king's guard, and told a shocking truth: her father and brother are dead, and she needs to hang up her mask and become queen.

Before long, she negotiates a deal with Felix: attend to her royal duties during the day and continue her vigilante mission to take out Lord Beswick at night - at least until her coronation. But the politics of Forcadel are as volatile as the streets, and Brynna isn't sure whom she can trust in the castle. With two royals dead in less than a month, she must use all her wits to make sure she isn't the third.

I can't wait for you all to read this book!

I've always loved books with snarky female leads who can kick some ass. I never get tired of them. It just makes books that much more enjoyable. Brynna was a lot of fun in this book. She had A LOT going and OH MAN is she gonna have it rough in the next books but I can't wait to see how she pulls out. I feel a little bad for her because she was trying SO HARD to do the right thing but without this drama we wouldn't have a very good book now would we.
