Blood Weaver by Karina Espinosa
4.0
Rating: 4.25/5 Penguins
Quick Reasons: blood magic; fated mates; lies, deceit, and deception; who to trust?.... maybe nobody; I come to you once more BEGGING for book 2
HUGE thanks to Karina Espinosa, K.E. Media Enterprises LLC, and R&R Book Tours for the title! My review of this book is voluntarily written and in no way altered or impacted by this gesture.
"I refuse to be defined by scars, Ronan." My voice, though steady, barely masked the icy fury that raged beneath the calm exterior. "Every mark is a battle won, not lost. A testament to survival, not defeat."
This was an intriguing, entertaining read filled with deception, mistrust, secrets, and romance (because of course there HAS to be romance for this icy Penguin heart to thrive on.) I had a fabulous time diving deep into the journey, and following these characters as they trialed and triumphed. The fated mates portion of this read was well-written, thought out, and slow-burn steamy--my absolute favorite kind. The lies and deceptions lent mistrust to every sidestep, every move, leaving readers wondering WHO (if anyone) can be trusted at all.
Karina Espinosa has a way with crafting lyrical, poetic descriptions. Readers will not just envision this world, but feel as if they have fallen directly into it. The characters leap from the pages, tugging at the heartstrings and enraging the emotions in turn. Readers will wonder, feel, and race to the answers along with the characters--and then find themselves wishing they had book 2 already, to pick right back up where this read leaves off.
"Ronan and I... It's complicated."
He scoffed. "Isn't it always? Love, loyalties, responsibilities. They're all a web of entanglements. But remember, Princess, while you're tangled in your personal affairs, there's a war looming."
If you're a fan of fated mates, blood magics, and tales that weave their romance with deceptions, this is DEFINITELY a series you'll want to keep your eyes peeled for! I know I'm going to be waiting with very bated breath for book 2 because, Penguins....I NEED IT. Are you ready to weave an adventure? If so, this read is for you!
