The Remarried Empress, Vol. 3

Today's manga post is on The Remarried Empress, Vol. 3 by Alphatart. It is 288 pages long and is published by Ize Press. The cover has Navier, Prince Heinrey, the Emperor, and the Grand Duke on it. As it is the third volume in the series, you need to have read the first two volumes to understand the story. The intended reader is someone who like their love stories to have politics and some magic in it. There is mild foul language, no sex, and no violence in this manga. The story is told from third person close. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the manga- "I wonder what it would feel like if there was someone who couldn't think straight because of me."
Secrets and schemes are swirling around the palace... and when people are playing with fire, someone's bound to get burned. Navier is doing her best to manager the flames, but when a magic potion leave Grand Duke Kaufman spellbound, Sovieshu's misconceptions about her love life spiral out of control! Meanwhile, Rasha is all but fanning the inferno- though if Duckess Tuania's admirer has his way, the mistress will soon face the consequences of her malicious ploys. And Heinrey's blazing passion for Navier may have to be put the back burner when news of his brother's ill health reaches the Eastern Empire. Will the empress and prince be pulled apart before they can be pushed together...?

Review- Navier continues to try and save both her face and her marriage but when Rashta is confirmed to pregnant, everything in the palace shifts. As Navier has never been pregnant, Sovieshu's is very excited about his first child, even if the child couldn't inherit the throne. But that adds more stress to the relationships in play. Navier is doing her best but will so many working against her in the background, she has no chance.  Heinrey is pulled away as his older brother is dying but all he can think about is Navier. I like that the author is giving Rashta's perspective on why she is acting like she is. It does not excuse her poor behavior but it gives some insight into her. But I am getting sick with Sovieshu being a jerk to Navier and, unlike Rashta, we have no idea why he is behaving as he is. I look forward to getting to the where the series starts because I am over Sovieshu and his bad behavior. 

I give this volume a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
