The Deceiver's Heart (The Traitor's Game, #2)
Jennifer A. Nielsen
Kestra Dallisor has finally gained possession of the Olden Blade. With the dagger in her control, she attempts to destroy the tyrannical Lord Endrick. But when Kestra fails, the king strips her of her memory, and leaves her weak and uncertain, bound to obey him. Heartbroken, Simon is desperate to return Kestra to the rebel she was, but refuses to use magic to heal her. With untrusting Coracks and Halderians threatening to capture and kill her, and war looming on the horizon, Kestra and Simon will have to learn to trust each other again if they have any hope of surviving. But can a heart once broken ever be healed?

0Book 2 of the series and the people that we can trust are getting fewer and fewer. There are new characters introduced but I'm sure we know at this point we can't trust them either, no matter what they do for us, even if it's helpful.
Kestra has gone to the castle to confront Lord Endrick. When she fails with the plan, he takes her memories and gives her new ones. Now she cannot even trust herself and what she remembers.
And poor sweet Simon is torn because he believes that magic will corrupt Kestra. He doesn't know what he wants to do, but he will still do whatever he can to protect her and try and keep her safe.
