Reviews for Lord of Fire and Ice

[rtb_3 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Posted on Romancing the Book's blogReviewed by CrystalReview Copy Provided by NetgalleyLord of Fire and Ice was a story that was told by two great women coming together and words just exploding off the page. In a way, I believe Brandr gets whats coming to him. He had been warned to not be ruled with what was between his legs, it could be his downfall. To think such a man could fall because of trickery from such young men. I liked his spirit. He went along with things as long as it didn’t go against his upbringing. He also had a lot of passion but he also kept his word and I love a man like that. Katla seems like a woman with a heart of ice to everyone but she hides her true feelings inside and doesn’t let anyone see it. She has always longed to feel the love of inn matki munr. Which is a deep love that a woman and man feel for each other and they can talk to each other in their minds. For Katla to do this she needs to let go of the part of herself that she keeps hidden. I enjoyed the way the story was written and the interaction between all the characters. You can tell that Katla loves all three of her brothers and she wants them to grow up. When they show signs of that she doesn’t want to realize it. She is a strong woman that carries all the burdens of her people. Katla just wants to be loved and when she meets Brandr sparks start to ignite. I loved watching them fight their feelings. When Brandr got his feelings hurt you could feel it. When they finally came together it just got better and better every time. The story was pretty fast paced. Sometimes I did catch myself wanting it to go faster so I could see what was going to happen next. Every once in awhile I would notice an i in between paragraphs. I don’t know if it was just the book that I read or if they all have it in them. Sometimes it would take a little away from the story because I would put the i in there when I was reading and it wouldn’t make sense. All in all this was a great romance of a man coming into himself and realizing that he had a gift and it ended up being a blessing not a curse. A woman coming to terms with her first marriage and everything her dead husband had put her through. She had to learn to trust other people. When they both could do that they found the love they had been waiting for. I would recommend this book to everyone and you might need a dictionary for some of the words but it only makes you smarter.
