Kiss of Steel by Bec McMaster

5.0

I don't know why I set this book aside and ignored it the past six weeks or so. It was an intriguing premise and I loved following the characters through their journey and the romance between Blade and Honoria. It took a while for the both of them (especially Honoria) to succumb to their feelings, but I think that only made their bond even stronger. I liked that Honor was smart and strong, but could be quite vulnerable as well, and it was really cool to see how Blade could switch from sounding like someone who grew up on the streets to someone cultured in just moments. They were both such wonderfully complex characters that I really enjoyed getting to know them. I hope that they pop up in the future books in some way or another; I'd like to see what comes of the revelation about Blade's CV levels. Well...I guess the only way to find out is to start reading Heart of Iron.
