Resumen del Editor

In the cut-throat game of court life, masters manipulate pawns—and you never know which one you are. One thing is certain: there's no space on the board for love.

A penniless noblewoman, Kat is on the verge of losing everything when she's offered a well-paid job that could be her salvation… or her ruin. Drawn into court's deadly intrigues, she's given a single task: spy on the powerful fae lord known as the Night Queen's Shadow.

Bastian Marwood is handsome, ruthless, and cunning, but Kat can't decide if he's a threat to her kingdom or just her heart. To uncover the truth, she must play a dangerous game of desire and deceit, pushing him to reveal his secrets while protecting her own. But Bastian's shadows have a hold on her—one she isn't sure she wants to escape.

Kat soon learns that at court, nothing is as it seems, and even the best-laid plans can be destroyed in an instant. As a pawn on the board, she can't afford to fall victim to love—only fight for survival.

A Kiss of Iron is the first book in a new series featuring court intrigue, a morally grey hero, and an unforgettable enemies-to-lovers romance. Perfect for fans of Gild and From Blood and Ash.

Excellent!

Highly recommend this book! Captivating! I couldn't stop listening! Can't wait for more to this series!

Excellent!

Loved everything about this book. The author did a great job with the main character, and I went on an emotional roller coaster ride through the whole book. The twists and turns in the plot were excellent and I devoured this book in a couple days. I wish the second book was available in audio format, but I’ll read it no matter what.

Wow

Was on a bit of a book slump and this one sucked me right in. I must have 140 books on my wish list and I just found this one and 💕😍 I cannot wait until the next one. The build up steam is good too. The narration was amazing. I have problems with sounds and can pick up little things that drive me nuts, but this was narrated very well. No issues for me at all

Immediately Hooked!

This book was recommended and I devoured it! It had a historical fiction feel, with queens and court life. It was filled with spying, lying, trauma, healing, redemption, twists and spice - I could hardly put it down.

Definitely well done by both the author and narrator. Give it a read!

Acotar meets Bridgerton and Nancy Drew- only better.

Oh my god!!! This was sooooo good. It’s giving ACOTAR meets Bridgerton with a smidge of Nancy Drew. I’m hooked.

THIS book is it

i loved this so much. Clare is so good at writing hard topics. I've never connected to a main character so well. it was like reading about myself in this fantasy world. this book will go down as one of my favorite reads of all time. the narration was incredible. story incredible. and the spice was perfect. seriously I have no words for how amazing this book is

A great book!

I loved the story and all the details added. I am going to read the story leading uo to these books, I do wish they were available on Audible though. The performance was great, very clear and the voices were perfect. BUT the epilogues male narrator just reminded me of someone narrating a wildlife show on National Geographic. I had a hard time listening to it honestly.

Love the drama

This book was well written great story plot can’t wait for the next one. Slow burn.

Entertaining story

Cat, the main character is an example of strength and determination. I look forward to listening to the next book!

Slow Burn Perfection

Get this book. Give them all your credits for this one! I've become more and more picky as my audiobook collection (aka addiction) has grown past thousands in the last couple years, but this one goes on the special list. The short list of books that tick all my requirements for a 5 star rating: A fantasy romance that's got an actual plot and not just smut for smut's sake, a FMC (or MMC if it's M/M) that's not obnoxiously wishy washy and stays true to herself, a MMC that's not abusive and actually deserves the admiration of the FMC, solid world building- whether it's intricate or more general/relaxed- as long as it's consistent and makes sense, no manufactured drama or excessive inner-monologuing. That's just the short list, but bottom line: It's a solid 5 out of 5 stars for sure!
