Ignite by Sara B. Larson (Defy #2)


                                 (SPOILER ALERT) 
If u have not read defy, do not read the summary and review for this book. This is the second book in the defy trilogy, so u have been warned. Below this review is the 1st book defy.

Summary: Murder, abductions, and forbidden romance abound in this thrilling sequel to Sara B. Larson's acclaimed YA debut, DEFY.
Alexa remains by the newly crowned King Damian’s side as his guard, ever committed to helping him rebuild Antion and reclaim the hope of Antion's people, despite continuing to harbor a secret love for him. However, when another threat to Damian and his kingdom emerges, and blame is cast on their newly forged allies from Blevon, Alexa knows things are not what they seem. With the fate of her nation hanging in the balance once again, will Alexa be able to protect her king and uncover the true enemy -- before it's too late?

My Review : Now Damian is the king of Antion, and peace is now restored. Alexa, not hiding her true identity is dedicating herself to protect Damien even when she has to sacrifice her feelings for him which she did a few times and it kinda really annoyed me. Soon their is a new threat to Antion and Alexa stands in the way of it. It causes the kingdom to be on the brink of war...again. While this happens, Alexa also has a choice to get Rylan or Damian, which shall she choose? We shall see.
    As Alexa tries to figure out how to bring peace again, everytime she sees Damian her love for him tries to break out but she keeps control, since she believes she doesn't deserve to be his Queen. Ugh, come on Alexa. When soon Jax gets captured, Alexa tries to get him back. Soon a women named Lady Vera shows up and tries to have a nice dinner with Damian, but when her taster, Rafe dies of a poisoning, this is when she becomes an actual villain. She is a type a villain that u would boo and get mad, which are my favorite type of villains.
    Now Alexa has to go and save Jax before the kingdoms go into war, but guess what? Rafe is still alive!!!!!!! Now this is a villain I wanted to punch in the face so bad!!!!!!! So Lady Vera and him are siblings and also sorcerers. Dang. Also Lady Vera hypnotizes Damian to try and kill Alexa, llike that is sooooooo messed up!!!!! Ugh I hate u Lady Vera and Rafe!!! Then Alexa gets Damian out of his trance and instead of killing her like Lady Vera commanded he killed Vera instead. THREE CHEERS FOR DAMIAN!!!!!!!!! Alexa then makes a deal with Rafe to let him take over her mind so that she never hurts him but she can take Jax back home. Alexa u better not, but she does. (-_-), NOOOOOOOOOOO!!
     Now he can command her to kill Damian whenever he wants too. Darn you Rafe! Then Alexa does her whining again about she is not a good queen or wife for him, Alexa come on we heard u the first time. Damian proposes to her and she says yes!!! Yay, now this made me really happy. At the very end she has to figure out how to beat Rafe. Overall I thought this book was amazing, but the only thing that bothered me is Alexa's whining so I give this book a 4 star rating. I would definitely recommend this book.
