2018 book 64

Sharon Shinn's Jeweled Fire
The third book in Shinn's Elemental Blessings series finds yet another princess running away to a nearby kingdom, where she's one of several women who may be chosen to marry one of the empress' heirs. There's also a new POV character--a (woman) spy working for the princess' father--AND it turns out to be a mystery story, instead of a more straightforward fantasy/romance (though I DID like the slow-burning romance here very much). It’s also the story of a young woman figuring out what she wants, and making it happen. More stories like that, please. A-.
