1. Lesbian and Bi Characters confirmed from to the author.
2. Another debut! I love debuts! I love discovering new others to love and fangirl over!
3. She possesses an Affinity for fire. I am totally a sucker for elemental powers, and fire is always great.
4. "Mare is surprised by Denna’s intelligence and bravery, while Denna is drawn to Mare’s independent streak. Soon their friendship is threatening to blossom into something more."
LOOK AT THIS OMG.
5. MAGIC. I love magic.
6. ASSASSINATION. I totally am drawn in by an assassination done well.
7. "but she has to choose between her duty and her heart when she falls in love with his rogueish horse-training sister instead" HORSES AND HER BETROTHED' SISTER OMG
8. Do I really need more reasons than that?
9. I mean I probably have more but just omg.

NOVEMBER 22ND REAAAAAAALLLY?
I want it nowwwwwwwwwww!
Here is the synopsis: Betrothed since childhood to the prince of Mynaria, Princess Dennaleia has always known what her future holds. Her marriage will seal the alliance between Mynaria and her homeland, protecting her people from other hostile lands. But Denna has a secret. She possesses an Affinity for fire—a dangerous gift for the future queen of a kingdom where magic is forbidden.
Now, Denna must learn the ways of her new home while trying to hide her growing magic. To make matters worse, she must learn to ride Mynaria’s formidable warhorses before her coronation—and her teacher is the person who intimidates her most, the prickly and unconventional Princess Amaranthine (called Mare), sister of her betrothed.
When a shocking assassination leaves the kingdom reeling, Mare and Denna reluctantly join forces to search for the culprit. As the two work together, each discovers there’s more to the other than she thought. Mare is surprised by Denna’s intelligence and bravery, while Denna is drawn to Mare’s independent streak. Soon their friendship is threatening to blossom into something more.
But with dangerous conflict brewing that makes the alliance more important than ever, acting on their feelings could be deadly. Forced to choose between their duty and their hearts, Mare and Denna must find a way to save their kingdoms—and each other.
