Kiss of Fate by S Young

Kiss of Fate (True Immortality, #2)

by S. Young

Fionn Mór was once a high king of Ireland; a fierce warrior who led his tribes against the invading fae. It was a war he couldn't win and to save his family he turned consort for the Fae Queen. Fionn escaped as the thing he once despised, and the people he loved betrayed him for it. Now, centuries later, it's time to reopen the gates to Faerie to take his revenge against the Faerie Queen.

At sixteen Rose Kelly discovered family secrets that changed her forever. Years after, she's still lost, traveling across Europe in search of that elusive missing 'something'. When she's attacked by a vampire, not only is she wrenched into a supernatural underworld she never knew existed, a knock on the head releases a spell on her mind and unlocks powers beyond her wildest imaginings. And with them more questions. Questions Fionn Mór claims to have answers to.

Following the powerful and enigmatic Fionn to Ireland, Rose quickly realizes she's a pawn in his plan for vengeance. What begins as a passionate battle of wills leads to an inexplicable but undeniable connection. One that will force them to face an impossible choice between the deepest love... and the darkest revenge.

With absolutely loving the first book in this series, War of Hearts, I couldn't wait to get to this one. Of course, life happened and the world went into chaos,I ended up putting this book to the side. And recently, I finally dove in.

My reading tastes have changed quite a bit over the past few months and one trope that's been super tough for me to get through is a slow burn. So I struggled with this one quite a bit. And what we've come to learn about Rose and Fionn as we learn more about them and why their connection is so strong, I also had trouble with that little bit.

I did love both Rose and Fionn, but Rose significantly more. With everything she's been through and how she constantly kept her drive to move forward, I was rooting for her the whole time.

Overall, I still enjoyed this one and I'm very much in love with this series. Kiss of Vengeance was a bit too slow for me, but that also goes along with my current preferences. Love the world that S. Young has created for us and I can't wait for the next book.
