The Queen's Secret




From #1 bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz comes the heart-pounding follow-up to The Queen's Assassin--now in paperback!

In the riveting sequel to The Queen’s Assassin, a young queen and the kingdom's top assassin must navigate a treacherous war where victory rests on a knife’s edge.

Though Lilac’s birthright made her the Queen of Renovia, and marriage made her the Queen of Montrice, she soon learns that being a ruler does not mean making the rules. For Lilac, taking the throne means giving up the love of her life, the kingdom’s Chief Assassin, Caledon Holt.

Worse, Cal is forced to leave the castle when a horrific set of magical attacks threatens Lilac’s sovereignty. Now Cal and Lilac will have to battle dark forces separately, even though being together is the only thing that’s ever saved them.
