From the author of Consort of Fire and Queen of Dreams comes a scorching romantasy novel full of courtly intrigue and erotic crackle riding the swells of immortal love. Aleksi, the charming and charismatic god of love, is dying. But nothing can stop the Lover from completing his final quest: a dangerous diplomatic visit to a former adversary. Setting sail for a mystical kingdom of ice, Aleksi is joined by Einar the Kraken, infamous pirate lord, and Naia, a sweet young water nymph. Intoxicated by the pair's electric connection, Aleksi vows to enjoy his last days by playing matchmaker, pushing away his own desires for the sake of theirs. But he's unexpectedly caught up in a raging game of seduction. As the trio navigates turbulent seas and the political perils of the Ice Queen's court, dark secrets reveal clues to one's tragic past and another's epic destiny. Aleksi's powers spin out of control while love and lust run wild. And when enemies emerge from the shadows, the Lover is forced to make a choice. Will he give away his heart to save all that he holds dear?

    I loved Consort of Fire, and was really looking forward to spending more time in this world. The Kraken is my guy, and I really liked the views on imperialism that thread through this book. I’m usually a proponent of a 300 page romance book, but with as much as this book had to do, I found myself wanting more. More of the characters giving words to their feelings, more of Einar’s backstory, more time spent with the mystery of the island and the plots against our three. I think I may have preferred if this and the next book were just one big, honking novel, but I had a good time here, as Kit Rocha always delivers. Definitely start with Consort of Fire and Queen of Dreams, if you want any context for what is going on. ARC received from NetGalley. Book out 5/6/25

    4.25 Kit Rocha knows how to make it burn slowwwlllyyy, and then take it up about 1000 degrees!πŸ”₯ The relationship between Aleksi, Einar, and Naia was spicy and so romantic. 😍 I am not a fan of cliffhangers, but they have definitely left me wanting more in the best way. 🀀
