Review: The Shadow Guardians
Rating: 4 out of 5

A Shadow's Kiss is the second book in Kirsten S. Blacketer's Shadow Guardians series. The first book is An Irresistible Shadow. Set in 1329 along the English-Scottish border, each of the books can be read alone, but are more enjoyable when read in order.Kirsten's characters are well-drawn and believable. Even the two heroes, who are identical twins, have very distinct personalities and traits, as do the women they love. There is a hint of the mysterious with the Shadow Guardians hiding in the woods beneath dark cowls, determined to protect the people in the border area and hoping to keep the peace.I would like to have seen a bit more historical detail in the books, along with more description of the clothing and customs, but both books are quick enjoyable reads.
