Denise I like Kile and Erik (even though he's technically not part of the selection haha). Those two are my top two contenders. :D


Ainez Mojica I go for Kile . Eadlyn and kile interaction excites me and the other males was pretty boring too plain but i think somethings wrong with haley and Ean...

Shiro Erik, please.


AshtheReaderAssassin I want it to be Kile he gets her and has seen her at her worse

Shaine I was thinking of Eric too. Hahaha! I really doubt she would ever find one in the participants. Especially how she handles the whole selection.


Rebecca Hmm I really don't know... it's a bit all over the place, but not in the same way as it was with America. It seems like Kile is the way Kiera is leading us, but it could be a diversion.... I find myself personally loving Henri, he seems so adorable and tries so hard to express his feelings for Eadlyn in any way he can. Honestly Erik seems way too posh and proper hahaha, I feel like she needs someone to loosen her up and get closer to the common people. I'm team Kile and Henri I suppose. Anyone but Ean honestly.

Alexa King Erik, obviously. The scene where he and Eadlyn held hands and stared into each other's eyes had by far a greater spark than all of the Keadlyn kisses combined. Kile and Eadlyn's relationship seems to be primarily based upon hormones and teenage rebellion, not love, whereas Erik and Eadlyn have proven time and time again that they care for one another. Erik did take Eadlyn away from a physical confrontation between Fox, Henri, (my precious cinnamon roll that makes cinnamon rolls) Burke, and Kile (who should have been the bigger person and taken the princess away from the argument so that she would not get hurt, but did not and instead, focused on the angry suitor.) Erik took charge of the situation and focused on Eadlyn's safety, something that should have been potential king's first priority.
Additionally, if she chooses Kile, Eadlyn is inadvertently ruining poor Kile's life. He wants to get out of the palace and see the world, not be trapped in a place where he feels that he doesn't belong. If he becomes king, Kile would only be able to see places in the way a king would, and not the inquisitive tourist that he wants to be.

Aigneas I think it could be Kile as they know each other and stuff. But I don't want Kile to be with her, I really want him to be a proud and great architect and find his true love - not in a castle.
I would adore Eric as her husband. They had a real alchemy and I just love this character - he's so sweet and I'm sure he's kind of in love with Eadlyn. And the fact he's not a Selection-guy may do some (not-so-impressive) plot-twist.

So, I vote by 150% for Eric. Or Henri. These boys need love.
And Eadlyn doesn't deserve Kile.

Ahyoung Song IT HAS TO BE KILE
I mean what else would Eadlyn pick out for her fiancé? Sone people say the story goes too easy if that's how it will end up, but we all know from first book that America would be the winner? Omg it will be so horrible if she picks someone else!


Amphitrite I think Erik would be a great choice but I hope she stays friends with Henry and I hope Henry doesn't feel betrayed. Actually choosing Erik is probably going to be the riskiest move here because all the Selected will complain about it. The subjects will think she made a poor choice and will make a poor queen because she basically lied to them by saying she would pick a Selected. I don't think she will pick anybody and some of the boys will stay her friends but she will make a whole big speech of how she isn't ready yet and that she is confident she will make a great queen on her own. The subjects will respect her and she will change after the Selection she will learn to be kinder and get to know her people better through the boys' eyes just like Maxon learned from America.


Vanessa Williams Hale. I honestly like Hale. He's is my absolute favorite out of the Selected. I absolutely don't think it will be Kile. I don't want it to be him. I want him to get out beyond the walls and explore.

And then there is Erik. The boy in the background. I think it is pretty clear that there is a forbidden connection between Erik and Eady. So I am looking forward to seeing how that relationship will develop.

Ultimately, it will be between Hale and Erik

Rama I think it's either Kile, Henri, or Eric


ihearthawaii Kile Kile Kile Kile Kile.

Even though he seemed like a snot at the beginning, he seemed to have changed slightly.

Erik is clearly in love with her, but the language barrier proves to be difficult. I like Henri and Fox but they don't seem right for her. Hale, he is like the Gale of the Heir. More like a friend it seems.

Kile Kile Kile Kile

So true. Throw the language barrier to the side. XD


ihearthawaii I love Henri, but I think they would be better as friends. He is incredibly sweet, but I think Eadlyn would be better with Kile.

Kalynn Honestly I really like Henri and Erik. I'm not that big on Kile, though I could see how it could be endgame.

Everythingat1once @Shaine

Exactly, they can be together if they both speak the language of LOVE <3 :P


ihearthawaii I really like Kile because of the unique character development. In the beginning, he was introduced to be a snob and stuck up, but then you learned he can actually care. He did things for Eadlyn because it would help her, and he was super sweet to her when they were cooking. Not to mention how he held Burke back when he got mad.

But I like Henri, because he is so sweet. He tried to block Eadlyn at the parade, and all he is is happy. Also, he tried to help hold Burke back with Kile at the kitchen. He doesn't mind being himself.

But the there is Hale. He helped block the food from Eadlyn at the parade, and he reminds me of Gale from the Hunger Games.


I don't think I can pick. I will be happy with any of them.


message 234: by Datele (last edited Nov 11, 2015 06:08PM) (new) - rated it 5 stars

Datele I have a feeling that Erik actually likes Henri. Many fans mentioned this. Kiera said that in the 5th book, we will learn about the LGBT community in Illéa and where they stand. Erik mentions that he lives alone (all other characters mention living with their families) and he was sad when Henri and Eadlyn were dancing together. He also said that "words are weapons", like he was hurt by words in the past. Personally, these three things ring a bell for me.

If this is true, then no matter if Henri wins or not, maybe Erik cannot be with him, since Henri loves Eadlyn. All 35 Suitors are straight, according to Kiera. In any case, I am curious to see how Erik's character develops, since he is the only mysterious and unknown character in the book.

To be honest, I am surprised that fans like and ship such a dark character as Eadlyn's love interest: he mostly appears only after the 68% of the book, he talks very little (he has only four main talking scenes, but not long ones), he is very introvert, he never jokes, and he doesn't really like to be in the Palace and under the spotlight, as Eadlyn noticed. He has no family name, no physical description and age, we know little about his family and his past. At least, Kiera said that she will reveal more about him in The Crown.

If you notice, Erik hovers around Henri a lot. His name is mentioned in the book 108 times, but he is mentioned without Henri being around in only 3 cases! During his talk with Eadlyn after Burke's fight, during Camille's party and a bit during the baseball game. In all other cases, Henri is next to him, around him or he talks about Henri, not about himself. I understand that his whole purpose is to be close to Henri, but it's a bit suspicious that he has no real personality or interests and life outside Henri. I don't really get a romantic vibe from him to Eadlyn, only some friendship and care. On the other hand, notice how happy he is when he talks about Henri. ;) I am intrigued to see how Kiera will write his character.


ihearthawaii Hello??????? Erik isn't even part of the Selection! He is just Henri's translator. Unless Eadlyn ends the Selection, she wouldn't end up with Erik. But, if you recall at the end of the book, Eadlyn said she would ends this with marriage.

So there is no way she can end up with Erik.

ihearthawaii Everyone! Please stop saying that you hope she ends up with Eric! He is not part of the Selection. Early night said at the end of the last book that she would end the Selection with a ring on her finger. This foreshadows that she will marry someone in the Selection, and Eric is only Henri's translator. Yes, Eric might have feelings for Eadlyn, but I think those feelings are respect.


message 242: by Ndos (new) - rated it 3 stars

Ndos I mean she could always put him in the selection. Like Maxon did wen America was booted #AllFairInLove&Selection. I'm not rooting for Eric though, but it's a possibility.

ihearthawaii Maxon never put America into the Selection, she was always there. He just stopped his dad from kicking her out. But, you can't add more people into the Selection.

ihearthawaii Thank you, Shreya! And people keep saying that they want her to end up with Erik, it drives me insane, because he was never in the selection in the first place.


message 249: by Alexa (new) - rated it 5 stars

Alexa King The Schreaves tend to not care about the rules, so Erik is a very viable option. Plus, America was never supposed to be in The Selection, so Erik could very well be chosen.


ihearthawaii America was supposed to be in the Selection!!!! She was hand picked because she was a five, hand picked by King Clarkson. Just because she wasn't supposed to stay, doesn't mean she wasn't supposed to be there.
