Description
Two teenage heirs play a deadly cat-and-mouse game to claim the throne in this exhilarating, standalone YA fantasy for fans of Victoria Aveyard.
Maralyth Graylaern lives a sheltered life on the family vineyard, wielding a forbidden magic that enables her to predict the harvest, peer into the past, and heal the vines from fatal blights. That is, until she's abducted and learns that she is a direct descendant to the throne of Perin Faye. In order to embrace her birthright and claim her throne, she must first destroy the remaining heir.
Alac Thungrave has lived his life as the “spare” prince, second in line to the throne of Perin Faye after his brother. When an attempted coup takes the life of the king and his heir, Alac is stunned to learn that the girl he recently befriended is the would-be usurper.
Duty forces Maralyth and Alac to engage in a deadly cat-and-mouse game, each determined to execute the other, despite their growing feelings of attraction.

Tina K, Reviewer
The Stolen Kingdom by Julian Boehme is a story of love and magic and hope and betrayal. Labeled a young adult book, it was still very appropriate for all ages I believe. The narrators both did an excellent job. The story was told from two viewpoints, Mara and Alac. Mara is a vintners daughter who possesses the ability to do magic. When she is kidnapped and coerced to take the throne from the current rulers, she meets Alac, the second in line for the throne. As she is forced into a world of lies and make believe, she finds that she cannot let Alac die, and he is inexorably drawn to her as well. Can the find a way to save the kingdom from the dark magic that roams upon it and still find their way to each other? A delightful story. One of my favorite audiobooks of the year so far. I only wish there was more coming. Thanks to #NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to listen to #TheStolenKingdom. All opinions are my own. #bookstagram #all_the_pages
