Of Wicked Blood

I am a Wicked big fan of Olivia Wildenstein and have been for a very long time. The first book in her Masterful Series is one of the first books I was given to review on NetGalley when I first started and that was a fantastic read. If you have not read that series, I highly recommend it. Katie Hayoz is new to me but I plan to do some book research on her as well because this duo writing was amazing. The atmosphere set around Brume and the magical history of the area was exquisite. When you can picture a place in my mind and it has got its own personality and life then you know the author did a stunning job bringing the place to life. The characters were a group of interesting humans that all had their own personalities and dimensions. I loved Cadence and Slate as a couple and I loved the slow buildup that was their relationship because it made it feel real and not something that these two authors put together just to fill pages. What I really liked was the magic and the challenges that each character had to go through to get their leaf.

I am invested in the magic I am invested in the characters and I cannot wait to see what comes next in this story. January 11th, 2022 cannot come soon enough. I cannot wait to see what comes next for Cadence and Slate and all the other characters that made this read such a magical ride. I only stopped reading long enough to let my kindle charge and I enjoyed every minute. Thank you, NetGalley and these lovely women for giving me the chance to be part of this magical journey.
