The Betrayed

Written by Kiera Cass

Narrated by Jasika Nicole

Kiera Cass brings another sparkling romance to a stunning conclusion in this sequel to the instant #1 New York Times bestseller The Betrothed, performed by Jasika Nicole (Fringe, The Good Doctor, Alice Isn’t Dead).

Can you follow your heart when it’s already broken?

After fleeing Coroa and leaving the memory of her beloved Silas behind, Hollis is unsteadily adjusting to life in Isolte. The Eastoffe family’s affection is a balm on her weary spirit, though Etan, a surly cousin with a deep distaste for Coroans, threatens to upset the uneasy peace she’s found.

While tensions at home ratchet up, disquiet in the kingdom of Isolte is reaching a fever pitch. The Eastoffes may have the power to unseat a tyrannical king—but only with Hollis’s help.

Can a girl who’s lost it all put the fate of her adopted homeland over the secret longings of her heart?

Loved it! Can’t wait for the next book in this series!

[Tonya Carnes · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I really enjoyed this story, it was cute, sweet, and funny but I'm disappointed that there was no epilogue. I feel like the ending was a giant cliffhanger. I have so many unanswered questions. 4 stars.

[Regan Deppe Willers · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Oh my goodness. It was so much better then the first book in the serious. And I thought my heart was going to burst with all the emotions!

[Ruth Kebreau · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I really enjoyed this book. It was different from other books I read.

With The Betrayed, I had no idea where Kiera Cass was going to take this story of a princess in the making who leaves it all for love, only to have that love cruelly taken from her in what has to be one of the most shocking and brutal twists ever written. As Hollis adjusts to her new life in a foreign country, there are the typical gaffes. I found the sequel a bit squirmy at times, only because it seems that everyone falls in love with Hollis immediately upon meeting her. The adoration Hollis receives from Silas’ family is a bit much, as are some of the more predictable plot “twists”. Still, Ms. Cass did manage to surprise me again with the ending. I was not expecting Hollis to make certain choices given what we know of her character. I particularly like the character growth Hollis displays throughout the two novels. As such, I do believe I enjoyed this duology much more than I did The Selection trilogy!
