Fantasy/to review
This is book 2 and you definitely need to have read book 1. That one ended with quite some drama.
Erin is travelling with a prince and his people as she knows the way. There are people hunting them. He wants to take over the throne. And she fell in love with a man who died long ago but possessed the prince. Told you it was a lot. Then that man had to leave and the prince was left with wtf? and he remembered and now Erin has to do what he says. And will she ever meet that man again? Remember he is dead...
Their journey will take them to the land that she fled long ago, where people might remember her. Also there are these spores that can kill you . She is also doing her best to protect her nephew who really looks like his mum. And his dad is after him.
They are running from a lot, their are fighting many. There is death and danger.
But you know the best part was the end, because after all this danger the end was like a warm blanket.
Great narration. Exciting story. And I would like more.
When the royal party finds themselves in a land they never believed they could access, it will take all of Prince Gevulin's (admittedly impressive) diplomatic skills to forge a coalition with an unlikely group of would-be allies.
Meanwhile, as Erin mourns her lost love, an unwelcome visit to the land of her birth brings back the traumatic memories of the childhood she shared with her sister.
And a surprise visit from an unwelcome family member threatens to derail the plans of multiple opposing factions.
Loyalty cannot be demanded, only won

That's a unique story line for sure.
