Kaitlyn‘s review of The Bridge Kingdom (Bridge Kingdom, Book 1) by Danielle L. Jensen
Young Adult Audiobook published by Audible Originals 16 Oct 18
I’m not a big audiobook person. Nothing against them, I just find it hard to stay focused and tend to be very judgmental of the voices. I decided to give The Bridge Kingdom audiobook a try because I absolutely love this series.
I actually found myself really enjoying it after a while. I think it’s because it is a book I had already read, so it made it much easier to concentrate on the story. I’m over halfway through a reread of The Traitor Queen audio and having just as much fun.
It helps that these books are so amazing. It’s one of my absolute favorite series for sure. I still haven’t read The Inadequate Heir yet, just because I know it ends on a cliffhanger and I want a release date for Book 4 before I subject myself to that.
If you haven’t read these books, I highly recommend them! There’s slow-burn enemies to lovers, political intrigue, badass female warrior assassins, and so much more!
Summary:
What if you fell in love with the one person you’d sworn to destroy?
Lara has only one thought for her husband on their wedding day: I will bring your kingdom to its knees. A princess trained from childhood to be a lethal spy, Lara knows that the Bridge Kingdom represents both legendary evil – and legendary promise. The only route through a storm-ravaged world, the Bridge Kingdom controls all trade and travel between lands, allowing its ruler to enrich himself and deprive his enemies, including Lara’s homeland. So when she is sent as a bride under the guise of fulfilling a treaty of peace, Lara is prepared to do whatever it takes to fracture the defenses of the impenetrable Bridge Kingdom.
But as she infiltrates her new home – a lush paradise surrounded by tempest seas – and comes to know her new husband, Aren, Lara begins to question where the true evil resides. Around her, she sees a kingdom fighting for survival, and in Aren, a man fiercely protective of his people. As her mission drives her to deeper understanding of the fight to possess the bridge, Lara finds the simmering attraction between her and Aren impossible to ignore. Her goal nearly within reach, Lara will have to decide her own fate: Will she be the destroyer of a king or the savior of her people?
