The Queen's Resistance

From Rebecca Ross, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals, comes the captivating sequel to the Renaissance France-inspired epic fantasy The Queen's Rising.

Finally, Brienna is a mistress of knowledge. But now, she faces a new challenge: In her role as the daughter of lord Davin MacQuinn, she must win the approval of the other MacQuinns. Additionally, as Queen Isolde's closest confidant, Brienna is responsible for balancing her role in her father's House with serving her country. And then there's Cartier.

Aodhan Morgane, formerly Cartier Évariste, is slowly adjusting to his role as lord of a fallen House. After he and Brienna discover a mysterious boy who captures their hearts, he starts to wonder what it would be like if he didn't have to raise the boy--or his House--by himself. But, for now, Brienna and Cartier must put their feelings aside, as resistance is rumbling among the old regime's supporters. Any weakness will be exploited, and love is the greatest liability of all.
