My Thoughts on Betrayed by My Fiancé, I Changed My Role from a Viscount’s Daughter to a Lady-in-Waiting to the Queen
"Betrayed by My Fiancé..." certainly has a mouthful of a title, doesn't it? I dove into this novel expecting a delightful revenge story with a strong female lead, and while it delivers on some fronts, it also left me with mixed feelings. It's a story of a woman scorned, but the path she chooses isn't quite what I anticipated.
First Impressions
The premise is intriguing. Our protagonist finds her fiancé seemingly entangled with another woman, a princess no less! Instead of the expected fiery confrontation, she freezes the engagement for a decade, becoming a lady-in-waiting to the future queen. I was immediately drawn to the potential for political intrigue and character development.
What Works Well
I appreciated the protagonist's intelligence and her sharp inner thoughts. She's not a pushover, and her wit shines through, especially in her interactions with her frustrating fiancé. The political backdrop is also quite engaging, with the future queen and the dynamics of the royal court adding layers to the story. The author does a decent job of creating a European-esque ambience, which enhances the reading experience. The friendships that the protagonist has are also really nice to see, as she has a solid support system.
Areas of Concern
The pacing and clarity are a bit of an issue. At times, I found myself struggling to fully grasp the motivations behind certain actions, especially those of the fiancé. His refusal to simply end the engagement felt contrived, and it made the conflict feel unnecessarily prolonged. Also, the romantic elements are almost non-existent. I was hoping for a compelling love interest to sweep our protagonist off her feet, but so far, romance is definitely taking a backseat to political maneuvering and personal growth.

Final Verdict
"Betrayed by My Fiancé..." is a decent read if you enjoy slow-burn stories with a focus on political intrigue and character development. However, the lack of romantic progression and occasional clarity issues might leave some readers wanting more. I'm giving it a tentative 3.5 out of 5 stars. I'm curious enough to see where the story goes, but I hope the author addresses some of the lingering questions and gives us a more satisfying romantic subplot.
