The Kiss of Iron

A dark and seductive tale, filled with poison and burning passion! Brutal deception, irresistible desire, tangled intrigues, and the darkest secrets— all this lies beneath the cover of the novel "The Kiss of Iron." A story for all lovers of... wounded heroes with a dark past and characters with gray morality, as well as the tropes of "from enemies to lovers" and "slow burn." In the cruel game called "Court Life," players mercilessly move their pieces, and the pawns obey. But what role is assigned to you in this spectacle? An aristocrat without a penny to her name nearly lost everything until she was offered a job that promises salvation... or death. Catherine receives a single assignment: she must keep an eye on the powerful fairy lord Bastian, known as the Shadow of the Night Queen. Bastian is ruthless and cunning, but Catherine must uncover his secrets at all costs. Who is he—a threat to the entire kingdom or just to her heart? To discover the truth, Cat enters a dangerous game between desire and deception, where freedom is at stake. But in forcing the fairy lord to reveal his secrets, she must carefully guard her own. Drawn into the deadly intrigues of the court, the girl realizes that things are far from what they seem at first glance, and any plan can fall apart in an instant. Catherine cannot afford to become a victim, like a wretched pawn in the hands of an experienced player. She will fight for survival, for there is no room for love on the chessboard.
