YAVampire Academy series.
Rose, falsely accused of assassinating the queen, calmly awaits execution. Her friends stage a jail-break while BFF Lissa campaigns for the role of queen, buying time to clear Rose's name. Flashes between Rose's perspective and Lissa's (made possible by their psychic bond) can feel disorienting, but court intrigue, magic, romance, and an unexpected but well-supported conclusion create a satisfying end to this series.
