At long last, Brienna
is a mistress of knowledge and is beginning to settle into her role as
the daughter of Davin MacQuinn, a disgraced lord who returned to Maevana
to reclaim his house. Though she’d just survived a revolution, one that
will finally return a queen to the throne, she faces yet another
challenge: proving herself trustworthy to the MacQuinns. But as Queen
Isolde Kavanagh’s closest confidant, she’ll have to balance serving her
father’s house as well as her country. And then there’s Cartier, a
wholly separate but desirable factor in her new life.
Aodhan Morgane, formerly known as Cartier Évariste, is adjusting to the stark contrast between his pre-rebellion life in Valenia as a master of knowledge and his current one as the lord of a fallen house. During the castle’s restoration, he discovers a young boy named Tomas, whose past and parentage are a complete mystery. So when Cartier’s former pupil Brienna is as taken with Tomas as he is, he lets his mind wander — what if he doesn’t have to raise him or his house alone?
As the Lannon trial swiftly approaches, Brienna and Cartier must put their love aside and stay focused on the most vital task at hand — forging alliances, executing justice and ensuring that no man, woman or child halts the queen’s coronation. But resistance is rumbling in the old regime’s supporters, who are desperate to find a weakness in the rebels’ forces. And what makes one more vulnerable than deep-seated love?

Thoughts:
The Queen’s Rising was an unexpected favourite of mine so far in 2018 and I'm sooooooo excited about the sequel. Especially considering the cover is just to die for! I can't wait to join Brienna and Cartier once again and considering The Queen’s Resistance is told in both POV's I'm excited about the possibilities of being able to get into Carier's head as well!
