Plot: In Cornerstone, Valencia Roth died to protect her daughter. In Jaded Stone, she'll live for her.
Twenty years before the events of Cornerstone, Valencia Roth is the Crown Princess of Sheas, as lonely as she is privileged. She wants for nothing, except a clear path toward peace for her land. She’s always known personal happiness might not be in The Three’s plan for her. As the future ruler of Sheas, and a Cornerstone, her life belongs to her people.
But when Valencia meets the charming Reid Hendel, she dares to believe love could be within her reach. That is, if they can both survive long enough for it to blossom. A new threat prowls the land, and she’s their primary target. Armed with stubborn pride and all the resources of Sheas, she fears nothing—until her brother leads her intended directly into the fray and at least one of them doesn’t return.
Burdened with grief, Valencia must carve her own path forward. From the forge of chaos, a new era will be born.
MY REVIEW:
“Jaded Stone” was a lovely read. I had been offered it by Kelly’s publicist and jumped at the chance since I am a steadfast follower of this series.
I was immediately entranced with the setting and characterization of Valencia. She goes through a lot of heavy decision making not only for herself but for others as well and it just showed her strength and determination to secure her and her people’s future.
There’s also an element of romance in this book in which I always love in books so I was a happy girl! Hehe. ;)
But with a new threat on the line how will things pan out?
A truly magical prequel to the "Souls of Stones" series!
My Rating:
-Overall : 8.5
-Plot : 8.5
