In this YA fantasy novel perfect for fans of Heartless Hunter , a girl who has always served others decides to take power for herself. Her magic feeds on lies. His magic could destroy her. Mira Kyler runs the court of Virdei from the shadows. Ever since she helped her half-brother Luc cheat his way into the role of Virdei's leader, she's used her lie-powered magic to collect secrets from members of court, then used them as blackmail to keep her brother in power. Kaidren Vale has magic of his own-magic that can detect the precise nature of someone else's power with a single touch. Kaidren is after the throne, and Mira knows it could be his for the taking if he so much as brushes against her and discovers Mira has been manipulating the court with her power for years. As Kaidren and Luc compete for the throne in The Trials-three deadly challenges-Mira realizes, even as she fights to keep her brother in power, that no matter who wins, she'll be stuck serving someone else. She's done hiding in the shadows. She wants the throne for herself. To get it, she'll have to betray both her own brother and Kaidren-but the fiercer the competition gets, the more Mira realizes that the one boy who could destroy everything is the one boy she might not be able to resist. “After completely enthralling me with the Sing Me to Sleep duology, Gabi Burton has once again ensnared me with her unique brand of storytelling magic in To Steal a Throne , an immediately immersive story entwined with an addictive, steamy romance and a deeply nuanced theme around truths and lies and how they shape our worlds and our destinies.
