I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Imposter’s Kiss by Renea Mason is a short and quick introduction to the Symphony of Light series.  Despite being a very short read, Ms. Mason manages to both grab my attention with an original story that is well-written and intriguing.We meet Cyril when he finds an injured child. After returning the child to his innkeeper father, Cyril is rewarded with a night with the innkeeper’s daughter. But instead of taking advantage, Cyril offers only kindness and thoughtfulness to Celestine. She returns the favor and this creates a hot, but touching love scene that you just don’t expect.Imposter’s Kiss is a combination of historical and paranormal romance. Cyril is not exactly human and we learn who and what he is. We also learn about his desire for a mysterious woman which is obviously the lead into the first book in the series, Symphony of Light and Winter.Though a prequel, Imposter’s Kiss was released after Symphony of Light and Winter. I did not read the first book but because Imposter’s Kiss is set as a prequel, it’s not necessary. That being said, I did find myself confused for the first couple of pages since I had no prior knowledge of what exactly Cyril was and I remained confused until Cyril and his friend came upon the injured child.When the action switched to Cyrus and Celestine, I was finally pulled into the story. The sex surprised me with the depth of emotion. Ms. Mason demonstrated the healing power of love as Cyril helped Celestine accept the loss of her true love. Celestine showed Cyril how there is still kindness in the world. Ms. Mason was able to pack quite the life lesson in only 31 pages.If Imposter’s Kiss is an indication of Ms. Mason’s writing skills, then I am intrigued to pick up and read Symphony of Light and Water. After all, I need to learn about that mysterious woman Cyril keeps dreaming about . . .
