Iron & Velvet drops you into the messy, supernatural world of Kate Kane, a paranormal private investigator who's seen it all and made most of the bad decisions herself. When a dead werewolf turns up outside the opulent Soho digs of Julian Saint-Germain, a centuries-old vampire prince, Kate finds herself tangled in a case that's way over her head – and dangerously close to her heart. This book is a quick, sharp shot of urban fantasy, blending a gritty mystery with a darkly witty voice and a forbidden romance that crackles off the page. It moves at a breakneck pace, never letting you get too comfortable as Kate navigates a world full of monstrous politics and personal demons. If you like your detectives cynical, your magic messy, and your love interests complicated, you're in for a treat.
