Francille’s Reviews > Daughter of the Empire > Status Update

I really don't understand where this book is going now... Up until this point Mara has been literally ruling over her estates as the head of her lands... but now the author has written her to initiate a marriage where she has designed herself to be subordinate to her husband (as a power tactic). So I went from reading about her negotiating treaties and leading troops to her being beaten and literally raped. What.
