Mrs. Blacketer doesn't disappoint. Adventure lurks in these pages as well as some witty characters. I loved Madeline and her sister Heather, 10yrs old, is a spitfire...she takes daggers to grown men...I enjoyed the plot, it's a follow through from the first book when Madeline is taken. While this book can stand on its own, it does tie up the end of the first book more and also leaves opportunity for future books to come.Madeline is forced to come home and even worse...is displayed like a trophy for her father's tournament. Alex, the man she loves but can't came to rescue her only to find himself sucked up into the tournament at his own peril. Their love is the sweet taste of forbidden and they are their own worst enemies just as much as the surprises in the books hold enemies for them.I really can't wait to read Angus's story, which is Madeline's brother in this book- he finds trouble in all the right...I mean wrong ways.A Shadow's Kiss is full of terrific characters and descriptions that come up off the page and allow you to escape in a world that has already come to pass and yet still holds a candle for us.If you enjoy historical romance, Strong leading females, and adventure, you will enjoy this read.
