Publisher's summary

In the majestic halls of a crystal palace lies a secret that could destroy an entire kingdom....

Bryn Aven refuses to give up on her dream of serving the kingdom she loves. It's a dream that brings her to a whole new realm...the glittering palace of the Skojare. The Skojare people need protection from the same brutal enemy that's been threatening the Kanin, and Bryn is there to help. Being half Skojare herself, it's also a chance for her to learn more about her lost heritage. Her boss Ridley Dresden is overseeing the mission, but as their undeniable attraction heats up, their relationship is about to reach a whole new level - one neither of them is prepared for.

As they delve deeper into the Skojare world, they begin to unravel a long-hidden secret. The dark truth about her own beloved Kanin kingdom is about to come to light, and it'll change her place in it forever...and threaten everyone she loves.

I love this series of books.

This book had so many twists and turns I couldn't stop listening. I was so sad to see that the book did not last very long . I was so impressed with this book I bought the next in the series. This book was fantastic let's hope the next is even better.

part2

I think this book is a little better than the first one but I also think these series of three books could have been joined in just one. I don't see why they separated them. Neither the first one or this one had an "end" . not even a cliffhanger, each of them finished as any of the other chapters did

Amanda Hocking does it again

Who do you trust and who is your enemy? This is the second book in the Kanin serie and it pick's up right where the first left of. This one has lots of plots in it and you really have a hard time putting the book down because you just want to know what happens next. It's beautiful written and I just have to read the last now.

Good story

First book is slow to start but going on and into book 2 the narrator gets better and so does the story. Well worth the slow start

epic!

Excited where the story takes our main characters! not gonna give anything away. love this series! though I do gotta say Bryn seems a little childish. I sometimes forget she's in her twenties and not her teens.

Excellent story, so well-crafted

I first read this in 2016, and it must have been the wrong time--I raised my opinion a lot, and am here to say I am very much enjoying the over arching story. The world the author built is entrancing and the character development is excellent. This is well-crafted. The narration is excellent.

Slow in some parts

There was a lot to like in Ice Kissed. However, some sections dragged.

This book needed more of an explanation of Victor Dalig and Konstantin Black, and less stonewalling by everyone else. I could also have lived with less of Bryn and Ridley’s supposedly forbidden romance. And if Bryn is to be a major player in the mysteries of this book, either because of who she is or what she does, it would be nice if she, and we, could be allowed some clue as to what that was all about.

There is more of Bryn’s romance with Ridley, and more of her insisting that she can’t be with him because of her job and the fact that he is her boss. Frankly, I don’t understand just what the hang-up is there, assuming he isn’t taking undue advantage of her and she isn’t using him just to get some sort of promotion.

I also don’t understand why people are being so uncooperative about the investigation into what went on in the Skojare territory. Of course, it is to be expected that the guilty parties will not be very forthcoming, but nearly everybody they talk to both in Skojare and in Kanin seems to be hiding something.

So, howcomeizzit that at the very end, when the bad things start to go down, it is Bryn who gets tagged as the person at fault and must flee the troll territories completely or risk ruining her family and friends?

The narrator was very good – I don’t remember a whole lot of frantic hysterical screaming which is sometimes a problem with female narrators and female characters in emotionally charged situations.
