Exile

Exile By: Anne Osterlund

Aurelia has set off on her journey to see the land that she is princess over.  She has gone with Robert and the palace guards. She does not like having the entourage, and wishes that she and Robert could just talk alone.  But when another attempt on her life occurs at the hands of these guards, Aurelia has to face the fact that she is not doing well.  As Robert and her are forced to run, Aurelia has to figure out what she wants to accomplish, and she knows she does not wish to give up the throne, that she has run away from.  She is not prepared in the slightest to fall in love, but she cannot imagine her life without Robert.

I loved this companion to Aurelia.  I really like the main character, and in this book we see that while she is a tough person, on the inside she struggles with everything.  As always I am a sucker for a great love story, and this book fits that perfectly.  The battle between both Aurelia and Robert in fighting their feelings for each other and the reality that they both know makes for a great read.
