Confused by everything that is happening, she happily confides in her new BFF David and returns back to her childhood home only to find out the truth about who she really is , is she a human freak , a plant or even more supernatural a fairie? This book will keep you guessing to the end and is a great read for fans of Melissa Marr's books Wicked Lovely , Ink Exchange and Fragile Eternity.

    I've heard some great things about this book. It sounds really interesting! I'm going to be sad if they cast Cyrus in it though =(

    @Casey, I really enjoyed the series, the second one is called Spells and I agree Miley Cyrus doesnt fit my perspective of Laurel. Its more suited to somebody like Dakota Fanning or Anna Sophia Robb .

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens.

The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she
