The slavers’ operation, however, goes deeper than Richard knows, and even working together, Charlotte and Richard may not survive...

In Steel’s Edge the Andrews gives us an older couple and I loved it. Charlotte may be a healer but she bared her backbone and I knew we were going to have some fun. I cannot believe how badass she was. The clever twist in her ability was wicked and deadly. Trust me when I say you do not want to get on Charlotte’ bad side. We first meet Richard in Bayou Moon and I was delighted to see him as our hero. Because these characters are older, they are comfortable in their own skin and know what they want. Both are unwilling to settle and this made their growing romance delightful to watch. A little snark, banter and tender moments had me caught up.
Steel’s Edge delivered an intense tale as Richard and Charlotte go after a slave trade with deep connections. I loved the way they battled together. His blade to her gift was the perfect match. He was calm, she seethed and it totally worked. Once again, Jack and George are vital to the mission and gads but I adore these two. Rose, Declan and Kaldar make appearances and Sophie gets a little revenge.
While the Andrews weaved threads of the overall story arc into the tale giving us long-awaited answers and resolutions there was also some developments that leave the door open a crack for further visits to this world.
As you have probably figured out if you stay caffeinated, I listen to all Ilona Andrews’ books. Renee Raudman narrates and is a personal favorite. She captures the characters and engages me. Theirs is the perfect partnership and listeners are rewarded. This review was originally posted on Caffeinated Book Reviewer
