Good morning peeps , I hope you are all having a good week . Today I have a brand new series for you to read . It is a historical enemies to lovers fantasy series . THE MAN WITH THE VIOLET EYES by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain .
BOOK BLURB
The first book in an addictive Historical Fantasy Romance series, perfect for fans of Jennifer Armentrout and Sarah Maas.
Master Nicolo, a man also known as ‘The Terrible,’ lives up to his title and then some.
As confidante, closest friend and protector to Prince Balduin, a man who would be king of the large and estimable Woodfall Gath, Nicolo is nearly untouchable.
Throw in the fact that the man can fight like no other and seems to have a preternatural knowledge for detecting those who want to kill him, he’s a formidable foe and then some.
But Nicolo didn’t always live such a favored life.
Born the only son to a poor mother, his otherworldly violet eyes separated him from his peasant brethren, singling him out as someone or something to be feared and shunned.
With no friends or money, Nicolo’s young life was a difficult one.
Then came the day the queen and her entourage passed through his remote town. The ailing Prince Balduin who was struck with a strange sickness that was certainly killing him, played with Nicolo and…
Prince Balduin’s health improved.
And so began Nicolo and Balduin’s strange friendship—Balduin raising a would-be peasant to a station well out of his range, and in return, Nicolo’s constant presence healed Prince Balduin.
Now the time has come for me to join the ranks of the kingdom’s servants, acting as maid during the day, all the while awaiting the cover of darkness in order to find Master Nicolo alone.
So I can assassinate him.
MY REVIEW
Nicolo is feared in the castle the constant confidante to the prince . His reputation precedes him but he wasn't always this fierce man . He use to be a poor boy living with his mother in a far away town until the queen and her entourage came through and found out that Nicolo had a way to heal the prince . So he was whisked away and became friends with prince Baulduin . Now his and the prince's lives are in danger when an unassuming young maid who is actually an assassin is there to find Nicolo and well take him out .
Nicolo and Charlotte are such different characters . Charlotte is tough but also trying to hang on to her cover . She is lethal in ways of enchanting a man and the brutally murdering that said person . You have a hard time cracking her shell she is that tough . Nicolo is a very complex character he is so fierce but there is a sadness to him that you can see through the story . I love the way the authors have the two main characters dancing around each other . The tension between them is off the charts and you will love them . They are very well written and complex . There are also supporting members that really make the the two main characters shine .
This is the first book in a brand new series from two of my favorite authors . They are now starting to lay the ground work for a fantasy book that will have you turning pages all night . The story is one that will have you laughing and on the edge of your seat the other half of the time . The characters are well written and I can't wait to see where the authors take them in the next book . I truly enjoyed this book and was in a book hangover after I finished it cause I couldn't put it down.i finished it in an evening . So if you are looking for a new series for your fall and winter reading list check it out
