Venom and Vice (Of Myth & Man, #2)
By: Jill Ramsower
My Recommendation: 👍👍👍👍 - (Out of 5 👍)
Ashley was thrown into the world of magic and supernatural beings when her best friend Becca took a job in Belfast. Born a human, upon her death, the Fae magician known as Merlin gave her a second chance at life as a Fae. Ash must learn how to use and control her new magical abilities. She is excited to see what her new life has in store for her. That is where Casek enters in to the situation.
Casek is a broody Fae and member of the Hunt. For many, many, many years it has been one of his responsibilities to monitor Fae activity on Earth and ensure the safety of the human population. His boss, Lochlan, has assigned Cas the task of mentoring Ashley as well as protecting her. Can the two of them work together without killing each other or will the chemistry that has been brewing between the couple lead to something more.
I was provided an Advance Reader Copy from Netgalley and the publisher for an honest review.
I completely enjoyed the first installment of this series but, if it's possible, I think I loved Ashley and Casek's story even more. I entered Venom and Vice with a complete understanding of the backstory and got to focus on the relationship that was developing between Casek and Ashley. At times Casek's archaic ways were a bit overwhelming but as the story developed so did he as a person. Ashley's headstrong personality is a perfect match for Cas; throughout the story she was able to go toe to toe with him both mentally and physically. And the chemistry between the couple was off the charts steamy. This series is unique in its mythology. I love the way Ramsower has taken Arthurian legend and weaved in to it a supernatural story with beings that are already familiar. I look forward to the next installment.
This book will be released May 2, 2022 but is available for pre-order now.
