My Review
Cold Hearted
by Leia Stone, Julie Hall
Book 1 in the Cursed Face series
Rating: 4/5
I sure read that quickly! I was excited to read something new from one of my favorite authors, Julie Hall! I already read the previous series where she joined with Leia Stone and it was awesome! I am such a sucker for a good enemies-to-lovers (without explicit scenes – fade to black). I will say that I sort of guessed the twist but not everything so the story was still very enjoyable. The banter between the two leads was so good and I loved every second of it. Going into the series I was told it would be more like a standalone story that focused on different couples per book which I have mixed feelings about because as much as I enjoyed their story arc, it did feel a little rushed near the end compared to the author’s other series where the story spanned 3-4 books. But even with that, the story was a fun read that made me laugh and smile and I will definitely be reading more.
Highly recommend if you enjoy fade-to-black fantasy that is humorous, adventurous and will keep you reading till the end!
PG-13 for language and fade-to-black romance.
