Princess Gisela of Steinland was born without color. Albino. To add to this curse, her betrothal to Prince Jerrik of Kronga ends in his death and starts a 10-year war her father is determined to win, even if it means bringing her out of hiding to do it. Now, the savage Krongon war commander, Bloodless Kristoff, seeks the hearts of the entire royal family, especially Gisela's.

Desperate, her father agrees to another alliance that involves her marrying an old brute of a king. Unwilling to be the sacrificial lamb, Gisela goes on the run. Thrown into the center of a battle between three kingdoms, she finds herself fighting for her life and the right to be truly loved.

Can the girl who started the war find a way to end it?

I’m so glad I didn’t listen to the negative reviews I saw on Goodreads and read (listened to) this book because I really enjoyed it! I was sceptical about the romance at first, but it actually turned out to be really lovely. I did notice that there were a couple historical inaccuracies (as the story did take place in some sort of alternate version of medieval Europe) but because of the overall fantastical vibe of the story, I didn’t mind too much.

I found Gisela to be an endearing main character, who was quite sensible and didn’t make foolish decisions just to get the plot moving (which a lot of YA female protagonist tend to do). Gisela’s faith was heartfelt and didn’t feel shoehorned into the story, which I really appreciated. I thought the villains were nuanced in the beginning but became cartoonishly evil towards the end, which was unfortunate. Overall, I really liked this story and I’ll definitely be buying a physical copy in the near future.

Glad I didn’t listen to negative reviews!
