Powerless by Lauren Roberts
You remember this one! We just talked about the sequel! This was one of the most read books on Goodreads one week — at least in the Netherlands. Here’s how Silvana Reyes Lopez describes it as a slow-burn romance: “In this first novel, we meet Paedyn Gray, an Ordinary — someone with no power or ability. The king has decreed that all Ordinaries must be banished to preserve the Elites, the people who were blessed with powers. Because of this new law, Paedyn has taken matters into her own hands, and she now pretends to be an Elite to survive. But when she unsuspectingly saves one of Ilyas princes, her life suddenly changes.
Even though it’s filled with top-notch banter and angsty tension, Powerless provides not one kiss.”
