Book One of SevenTrust was a liberty that as Kumari, Bae could not afford, especially after the murder of Bae’s mother, the late Kumari.The Kumari bloodline had to continue regardless of the cost, even if it was the life of someone she loved.There were only two things that a Kumari should trust; magic and her seven mates.The race was on for Bae to find and claim her seven mates before she had to … seven mates before she had to defend her realm from an unknown enemy.
With them, she still might not win, but alone she would definitely fail.

The world is rich and interesting. The diverse characters were a pleasure to read about. The premise of needing to claim seven mates, all with the threat of a prophecy, was interesting. This book gets through the claiming of the first two mates and I assume more will be claimed in the next in series. The heat level was pretty mild compared to others I’ve read recently, but it was enjoyable. The omniscient point of view was a little hard to follow.
This story has a unique and exciting storyline. I didn’t want to stop reading until the end came…and then I wanted more. The world was interesting, and I loved Bae’s character. She isn’t some damsel in distress; she is strong and dedicated even when the going gets tough.

What an amazing opening to a new series! Hanleigh Bradley has shown what it truly means to be selfless. This is a well-written and developed story.
I can’t wait to read what comes next.
I really enjoyed the narration; it is well done and entertaining
I received an advanced copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an unbiased , honest review.
Hanleighs foray into reverse harem is a sucess! Bae has the Magic to save her kingdom, but she needs to find her 7 mates! The first one was easy, but the rest will not be so. There is trouble brewing, from outside and within the Relm. Will she find them all, before she dies? This story flows seamlessly and is enjoyable, can’t wait for the next installment!
OMFG I have so many emotions with this book.. Bae is such a brave and amazing soul. The way she connects to her magic and that of her mother and ancestors is pretty astounding. Than the way she just knows her mate before even laying eyes upon them is magical and exciting. Her bravery and natural ability to lead is her best feature! I am already anxious to see how she and her mates get along and work as a whole for the Kumari and how they will all balance as one! I truly fell in love with Bae and her journey!

In any other story, Bae could have been an ordinary princess, but she was far from ordinary–a product of both magic and prophecy.
In a short amount of time, Bae was able to find not one, but two of her eventual seven mates, but she also found herself facing a horrific mystery, one that threatened not only her crown, but her life, and her kingdom as well.
Hanleigh’s gift as an author shone for me, a fantasy fan without necessarily a penchant for romance, by balancing the intimate moments amongst the moments of very real emotions in those around Bae, namely her mates and certain members of her family—fear, anger, and a rather understandable jealousy. I found Hanleigh’s use of a sentient magic wholly original and refreshingly new.
I thought about giving 5 stars, but the one weakness in the story reduced it to 4.99 stars. That being that just as we get to the most exciting part of the story… It ends. Except for making me wait for the next installment. Well done!
