The Heir by Kiera Cass

22918050

Synopsis: Princess Eadlyn has grown up hearing endless stories about how her mother and father met. Twenty years ago, America Singer entered the Selection and won the heart of Prince Maxon - and they lived happily ever after. Eadlyn has always found their fairy-tale story romantic, but she has no interest in trying to repeat it. If it were up to her, she'd put off marriage for as long as possible.

But a princess's life is never entirely her own, and Eadlyn can't escape her very own Selection—no matter how fervently she protests.

Eadlyn doesn't expect her story to end in romance. But as the competition begins, one entry may just capture Eadlyn's heart, showing her all the possibilities that lie in front of her . . . and proving that finding her own happily ever after isn't as impossible as she's always thought.

I was excited to read the next book after the previous one where it finished with the wedding of Prince Maxon and America Singer. I thought it would be a story where it left off, but instead it sets it more in the future and now the main character is their first born daughter and heir to the throne.  

Like I said in my previous post when I mentioned that this had a feel of the tv series, "The Bachelor", this keeps playing on it and is like a version of "The Bachelorette". And while the book was predicable in a way, it did have some twists and turns that I didn't see coming. I did like the earlier books better because I felt there was more depth to America and how she worked together to make things better for the people in their kingdom. I felt like this one was about her attitude toward tradition and her love life and how she rebelled against it. But it was a quick read and I do look forward to reading the last book in the series.
