Winter's Captive (The Lochlann Treaty, #1)
Robin D. Mahle
They thought she was a puppet they could manipulate. But this princess is no damsel in distress. Or at least she doesn’t want to be... The black X of the Aramach marked the spot where Princess Charlotte’s life was destroyed. Her fiance has been kidnapped by rebel insurgents, and war threatens to crumble her kingdom if he’s not safely returned. Somewhere in the midst of her inner circle, traitors are plotting to prevent their two kingdoms from uniting. Deciding it’s time to take matters into her own hands, Charlie storms from the castle on a mission to save her betrothed. But the obstacles are many, and her skills are few. Due to her sheltered existence, she’s knows nothing of her own kingdom or how to survive in it. But time is running out. The drums of war have sounded. Fighting against rebels and assassins; Charlie must find a strength within herself she never knew existed. But will it be enough to bring her prince home and save the kingdom?

I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
I liked this book, but I don't think I loved it. It was shorter than I thought it would be, but it managed to still tell a great story without rushing and feeling like it was missing plots of the storyline, or jumping ahead randomly. The characters were interesting, each having their own individual personalities, and I loved the relationship and development throughout.
Charlie and Logan's relationship is complicated to say the least, but in their own ways, you could see they cared for each other, but there was a lot of issues they chose not to talk about, which I really hope will happen soon. I'd like to see their relationship develop into something more than and 'I hate you because you hurt me' relationship.
While there were a couple typing errors here and there, and the unsure feeling surrounding this first book, I can say that I will be continuing onto book two and seeing where the storyline will evolve from there!
