5-Star Romantasy Review: A Cursed Kiss

The talented Jenny Hickman touts her book, A Cursed Kiss, as “Irish mythology under the veil of dark romance, with twists and turns that will keep your heart pumping.”

I second this notion. 

This book was everything I was craving and more. Really, I blame Sarah J. Maas for getting me addicted to hot, morally grey Fae—Rhysand was my gateway drug—and now I can’t stop consuming romantasy. Nor do I want to.  
I’m constantly on the lookout for stories about Fae that satisfy my craving for more, while still being uniquely their own. 

A Cursed Kiss is just that with:

Tension

Snarky Wit

Flirty Banter

Seduction

Saracasm

Enemies-to-Lovers

One Bed with a Twist (I’m looking at you, one magicked cabin with no bed!)

Quick Pacing

….and what’s that? A strong, interesting plot that holds itself up without sacrificing the romantic elements?
Whoa, it’s literally the perfect blend of fantasy AND romance, without losing sight of one or the other. 

Get A Cursed Kiss (Myths of Airren Book 1)

A freakin’ gem, I say! 

Oh, did I mention that our hero, Tadhg, is dark-haired with guyliner that adds to his enigmatic appeal? Where can I get a Tadhg?

If you’re a fan of A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas, The Cruel Prince by Holly Black, or Kingdom of The Wicked by Kerri Maniscalco (or just good romantasy in general), then you will LOVE A Cursed Kiss. (If you’ve never read any of these books, I highly recommend them all. Find links below.)  

Get The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, 1)

Get A Court of Thorns and Roses

Get Kingdom of the Wicked (Kingdom of the Wicked, 1)
