Summary: It is Joffrey's chosen punishment for the Starks' treason, his grandest jape, to make brother and sister wed before the court. To spare themselves from the king's wrath, Jon and Sansa pretend to consummate their marriage, but lies have a way of uncovering hidden truths, and when Stannis takes the throne and they are returned North to their family, they must reckon with the consequences of what they have done...

Recommendation: On the one hand having Jon in King's Landing actually makes things worse, but not more so than he makes things more bearable. I find that I'm a little disappointed in Robb though, not that I think that his response isn't correct or true to character but more that I think it is sad that Sansa's safety and happy don't seem to weigh heavily in the balance. Oberyn was a treat though.
