About this ebook

**Author's note: I know you hate Judica. I know that means you don't want to read this. I worked hard in Displaced to make you hate her. I promise that if you will give her a chance, you'll understand her and even more importantly, you'll like her. There's a reason I sell more Judica merchandise than anything else. ;)

What’s dark is not always evil. 

Judica trained her entire life to be ready to one day rule the Alamecha family. She was nothing less than perfect. She fought, studied, and even dated exactly as her mother directed. 

Only, now her mother’s gone, her sister stole her throne, and her boyfriend abandoned her. Things can’t really get any worse, or so she thinks.

When Judica’s attacked by a hidden enemy, there’s only one person she can trust, the one warrior who never followed her for the wrong reasons. With Roman’s help, Judica must discover the true circumstances surrounding her mother’s attack and find justice, no matter what stands in her way.



Still not sure whether you want to give Judica a chance? Check out what other reviewers have said after reading her story:

“Judica’s story is my favorite in the series!”

“I honestly didn’t know how Bridget would be able to redeem Judica in my eyes, but she did it.” 

“Of all the directions this series could have gone, this was the most surprising.”

“I was on the fence about unForgiven because I really didn’t like Judica in the first book. However, I’m so glad I read it!” 

“Book 2 went and flipped the table on all my preconceived ideas! I loved the switch to the POV of the supposed antagonist.” 

“All the things we hated about Judica in Displaced are explained in unForgiven and I might like Judica more than Chancery.”  

“I wasn’t sure how I would feel about reading a book from Judica’s perspective. I loved it so much!” 

“I am so glad we got to hear her story. She’s actually my favorite character.” 

“Book 2 is a flawless move into the POV of Judica. So far, this series is a knock out!”

Ratings and reviews

I went into this book thinking there was no way Bridget E. Baker could make me sympathize with Judica. There was just no way I could ever like her after the things she did in Displaced. Wow, was I ever wrong! Reading both sides of the story really does make a difference. I ended up loving Judica. "There are two sides to every story, but they can’t both be true, can they? In the second book of the Birthright Series, Bridget E. Baker weaves a tale of bad things done for very good reasons and an unexpected chance at redemption." That perfectly describes this book. I know the author says this is an optional read, but in my opinion, if you are going to read this series, this is a must read. Lots of things were explained and layers were peeled away so that we were able to see who Judica really is. Along with telling Judica's side of the story, there is also some romance added that was nicely done, and a couple of new characters that I really liked as well.

This story breaks off from the first book and is told from Judica's point of view. It draws you in and has you feeling all kinds of emotions towards her! I didn't think I would want to read this at first because I wanted to continue from where the last book ended but I am very glad I did!! It was great!! I received an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

The story of the twin sisters told from Judica’s point of view. Interesting to both continue to plotline and go backwards, but from a different character’s point of view. I really liked this second book of the series, and it really changed my perception of Judica. A good reminder that none of us can truly know what another person is feeling or experiencing. unForgiven really helped round out Judica as a person and explained a lot of things between the sisters, and their mother. The family and life in Alamecha is fleshed out a bit more and new characters introduced. Not just evians are brilliant and gorgeous in this book! I think I have to root for the charming underdog in this romance. Absolutely worth the read!

About the author

Bridget is a lawyer turned novelist who loves her husband (every day) and all five of her kids (most days). She has three goofy horses, one very busy dog, two spoiled barn cats, two lion’s head rabbits, and more chickens than she cares to admit. She makes cookies waaaaaay too often, and believes they should be their own food group. In an attempt to level the scales between consumption and exertion, she kickboxes every day. So if you don’t like her books, her kids, or her cookies, maybe don’t tell her in person.
