Fated Blades (Kinsmen, #3)

That was great fun, and so hard to put down! I downloaded it at midnight, read half and then finished it up this morning. Romeo and Juliet get a kickass Ilona Andrews upgrade in Fated Blades, a standalone short novel set in the Kinsman universe.
Ramona and Matias, the two heads of feuding kinsmen families, both of secare (elite warrior) clans, are forced to cooperate when their two spouses run off together, stealing both families' vital scientific research, with plans to sell it to the Big Bad of their galactic sector. They need to track down their spouses, get back the research data, get rid of the bad guys (and maybe their spouses), and keep everything secret to avoid losing face. Sparks fly, on every level.
It's a quick, fast read, not as complex and layered as their very best work, but Ilona Andrews fans will have a good time.
Content note: R-rated for violence, explicit sex and a few scattered F-bombs.

"It's a quick, fast read, not as complex and layered as their very best work, but Ilona Andrews fans will have a good time." That summarizes how I felt about this.

Yeah, as the excitement of actually reading it fades a little in the cold light of day, I'd go 3.5 stars.
