Now, on that note, let me say that I'm very worried about who America will end up. While it does make me like Aspen better than I did after what happened at the very beginning of the first book, I'm still a Prince Maxon fan all the away. In this book we get to see the punishment of another contestant from book 2, but this time through Aspen and the other workers of the palace's eyes. Only, he is now a guard in the palace, so while he does get to see America, to try to be romantic with her would only get him punished. But now he must see how he can convince her. Aspen has realized of course, that he still loves America, and that she is the ONE for him. But then of course, he told her to go ahead and enter the contest, which she did, and now she is conflicted of course, between Prince Maxon, and her first love, Aspen. If you've read the series you remember that Aspen is the boy America was in love with at the beginning of The Selection. We get to see the story through Aspen's eyes.


It happens after The Elite, almost kind of during it as well. While I'd already purchased and read the first one, The Prince, as an e-novella, I went ahead and bought this physical copy because not only did it have the next novella, The Guard, but it had some great extras too! So first I'll review the 2nd novella, then I'll tell you about the extra goodies.

I bought this last weekend at the bookstore when the main book I went to purchase had to be ordered.
