REVIEW & GIVEAWAY: The Kiss of Deception by Mary E. Pearson

July 9, 2014 by Jaime Leave a Comment

THE KISS OF DECEPTION (THE REMNANT CHRONICLES #1)
By: Mary E. Pearson
Publication Date: July 15, 2014
The Kiss of Deception (The Remnant Chronicles #1)
SUMMARY

In this timeless new trilogy about love and sacrifice, a princess must find her place in a reborn world.

In a society steeped in tradition, Princess Lia’s life follows a preordained course. As First Daughter, she is expected to have the revered gift of sight—but she doesn’t—and she knows her parents are perpetrating a sham when they arrange her marriage to secure an alliance with a neighboring kingdom—to a prince she has never met.

On the morning of her wedding, Lia flees to a distant village. She settles into a new life, hopeful when two mysterious and handsome strangers arrive—and unaware that one is the jilted prince and the other an assasin sent to kill her. Deception abounds, and Lia finds herself on the brink of unlocking perilous secrets—even as she finds herself falling in love.

Jaime’s Thoughts
The Kiss of Deception by Mary E. Pearson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

THIS BOOK YOU GUYS!!

I can’t even tell you much because I refuse to be a spoiler of things but I’ll try to share some thoughts.

“Today was the day a thousand dreams would die, and a single dream would be born.”

That’s the first line of this story… and from that first sentence I could not put this book down.

Princess Lia is the First Daughter of her kingdom. She is expected to have the gift of sight, but she doesn’t… and her parents are forcing a marriage to secure an alliance to a neighboring kingdom. But it’s to a prince she has never met and doesn’t want. Instead of facing this fate, Lia flees with her best friend Paullina to a coastal town, where she starts a new life full of freedom… and hope.

But suddenly two strange and mysterious men show up and take an interest in her, she has no clue that one of them is the Prince she was supposed to marry and the other is the assassin sent to kill her. And this is where an interesting twist happens… you meet the two men vying for her attention. But like Lia, you don’t really know who is who! You guys – Pearson is a genius for presenting the story this way. As a reader you get to experience the ‘getting to know you’ right along with Lia without any preconceived notions or expectations! I spent half the time wondering if I was hoping she was falling for the guy who was trying to kill her and the other half trying to piece all the clues together to figure it out! I may have texted Kelly at Belle of The Literati with my back and forth guessing … repeatedly!

And I know… two guys, you are immediately wondering if there is a love triangle – and I can definitely tell you … no-ish. The book is set up to make you feel like there will be, but Lia makes her feelings pretty clear about one of them with no waffling.

Lia, as a character, is the kind I find myself begging for. She’s fierce and she’s strong and she’s determined to live her life. She’s the kind of protagonist you can’t help but cheer for! And while she starts this novel with some of that strength and determination, it was wonderful to see her grow into an even fiercer version of it by the end.

But my friends… that’s only the first half of this story.

Something happens that forces Lia to own up to who she really is and give up the life that she wanted for herself which is where we get into the political upheaval that is happening in these kingdoms and ultimately how it’s changing her life. Pearson doesn’t disappoint on the action and suspense because the pacing in this last half make the pages fly by… or maybe that was just because I couldn’t stop reading. Either way, it was amazing.

If you’re a fan of YA fantasy, this is a series you can’t miss. I’ll be impatiently waiting for book 2 in this series and once you read it, you will be too!
Erin’s Thoughts
The Kiss of Deception by Mary E. Pearson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I can easily say that The Kiss of Deception is one of my favorite reads so far this year. I loved the characters, the story, the continual action, and yes…the romance. Once I started this book I couldn’t force myself to put it down. It made me feel happy, sad, angry, and probably a million other things but don’t take my word for it…go read this as soon as you can. I will spoiler tag this to prevent giving anything away…but if you don’t like spoilers, continue at your own risk.

(view spoiler)[Princess Lia is the First Daughter of the Hours of Morrighan. As a First Daughter, there is potential that she will have “the gift” and it is her duty to follow the direction of her father, the King. He and the King of Dalbreck have arranged an alliance through her marriage to the Prince of Dalbreck. Unfortunately for Lia, she has never met him and has no desire to be stuck in a marriage that isn’t of her choosing, like her brothers. Lia has the support of her friend, Pauline and the day before her wedding, they make the decision to flee.

As the story progresses, we are introduced to other characters. There is the Prince and the Assassin (they also have chapters referencing them as Kaden and Rafe). Now here is where Pearson hooked me even more. As a reader, you are never told who is who and I was continually guessing if Rafe was the prince or the assassin and if Kaden was the prince or the assassin. Just when I thought I had it figured out, one of the characters would make me think the opposite of what I had settled on. Additionally, Lia is introduced to these characters at the exact same time and neither of them reveals who they really are to her even though they both know exactly who she is despite her trying to keep it a secret.

As the story progresses, we find out that due to Lia fleeing her wedding day, things have gotten a bit worse between Dalbreck and Morrighan. On top of that, the Barbarians of Venda have been threatening the kingdoms and creating problems. Little does everyone realize just how much Venda has been preparing themselves to go up against the kingdoms. They have built armies and have been destroying land and bridges to keep the soldiers occupied.

While living in Terravin and working at the Inn as a maid, she begins to forge a friendship with both Rafe and Kaden. It is obvious she is drawn more to Rafe than Kaden but while that is true, she comes to trust both of them. Of course, just as things are starting to fall into place and she is happy, Lia finds out that something horrible has happened to her brother, his wife, and their unborn child, Lia decides she needs to go back to her father and ask for forgiveness as well as see if there is any way to avoid any further danger.

When Lia and Pauline begin to make the trek back to Morrighan, they are intercepted and this is the point where it becomes clear which character is the assassin and which one is the prince….I kind of don’t want to say it – so I won’t. Just know that while it is now clear who is who from here on, it doesn’t make things easier. Lia knows exactly who the assassin is because he and his band of barbarians take her away but she still doesn’t know that the other character is the prince. She still believes him to be a farmer and as she is taken away, she regrets that she may never see him again.

As Lia and the barbarians travel across the country, it is clear that the assassin is conflicted. He clearly has feelings for Lia and has lied to the group because telling them that Lia has the gift is the only way he can save her. If they didn’t believe him, they would expect her death and that is something he couldn’t go through with.

I loved how Pearson built this story out. By keeping it a mystery as to who was who in this story, I felt just as betrayed by the assassin when I found out who it was. Ok…maybe not as betrayed but I really liked both of these guys – even though I knew one of them was supposed to kill her. They both helped Lia and even seemed very normal while helping out at the Inn.

By the end of this story, my heart hurt so much for Lia. She was kidnapped, believed she wouldn’t see the man she cares about, had to watch people she loves die, and so much more. Through it all she stayed true to who she was and I loved her for that. (hide spoiler)]

I also loved how Pearson built up this world. She has a lovely way of describing everything around the characters and pulled me right into the story this way.

Please note, I have only touched on a few of the things going on in this book – there is so much more that I haven’t even talked about here just because I don’t want to give anything away AND I don’t want to ramble on and on. Trust me when I say that you should definitely pick this one up as soon as you possibly can. I will be waiting anxiously for book two to come out because Pearson has hooked me into this and I need (Yes…need) to know what happens next for these characters.

Thank you to Netgalley and Macmillan Children’s Publishing Group for the early copy.

Because MacMillan is awesome they are allowing us to give a copy of this amazing book away!! Sorry this is US/CA only!

Happy Sunday -where do you discover new books to r Happy Sunday -where do you discover new books to read or add to your #tbrpile ?
.
I used to be way better at curating my piles - and effective lol - (i miss book conventions so much!) now I tend to see titles here on Instagram or get emails from publishers or scroll goodreads lists in order to determine what’s coming out. But truly going to conventions and talking to publicity reps and scanning shelves were always the best way for me to figure out what I most wanted to get my hands on!
.
On that note have you seen these special editions that @illumicrate created for The Poppy War series - I haven’t read these yet but am hoping to start soon!

I received this amazing package from @hmhteen @bighonchomedia and I’m so excited to start reading! Summary is below and this one is out now!
Summary:

Seventeen-year-old Kiva Meridan has spent the last ten years fighting for survival in the notorious death prison, Zalindov, working as the prison healer.

When the Rebel Queen is captured, Kiva is charged with keeping the terminally ill woman alive long enough for her to undergo the Trial by Ordeal: a series of elemental challenges against the torments of air, fire, water, and earth, assigned to only the most dangerous of criminals.

Then a coded message from Kiva’s family arrives, containing a single order: “Don’t let her die. We are coming.” Aware that the Trials will kill the sickly queen, Kiva risks her own life to volunteer in her place. If she succeeds, both she and the queen will be granted their freedom.

But no one has ever survived.

With an incurable plague sweeping Zalindov, a mysterious new inmate fighting for Kiva’s heart, and a prison rebellion brewing, Kiva can’t escape the terrible feeling that her trials have only just begun.

Happy... I don’t know what day it is anymore. I had to ask in a meeting yesterday what actual day it was because it’s just been a huge blur since I returned from my vacation a week and a half ago.

Serious question though... how are you doing? If you’re curious I’m okay just a bit stressed out-  I love this quite and this pin and I feel like I’m in need of a binge of this series on audio... maybe I’ll read that one next! Who knows because I’m a mood reader lol

I have also taken to cleaning and letting go of all of the things! I used to belong to a ton of book boxes and while I appreciate all the creativity etc that goes into them I just don’t know what to do with all the little items and extras that come in each one - again I love that #illumicrate offers a book only option so that is the only sub box I belong to aside from #botm

That said there are some things that I will never give up and have put in my ‘save but stash away’ box- anything #illuminaefiles related is in there!

I am actually hoping to go back to it again shortly... especially because I own two copies of it 🙈
