As the Fortune Favors the Fae series continues the traveling fae coin visits Damian and Cassander as they dodge dangerous assassins, deal with frustrating family members, and try and handle the bad and good luck the coin throws at them.
From the Smoke and Mirrors blurb:
Secret Agent Damian Reyes has two problems: he just lost his job and now he's babysitting a deposed prince.
When Damian ran straight into a firefight to save an attractive civilian, he didn’t realize he was also sacrificing the career he’d spent twelve years building for a man whose flirting is only slightly less lethal than his blades. Now they’re stuck in Damian’s childhood bedroom as he tries to salvage his job, avoid his mother, and keep Cassander from getting murdered.
Oh, and a phenomenally powerful magical coin has decided it wants a ride in Damian’s pocket. At some point, his luck has to change, right?
Smoke and Mirrors is a part of the multi-author series, Fortune Favors the Fae. From spicy to sweet, zany romps to epic adventures, there’s something for everyone in this mystical series. Discover destiny and true love and follow the coin on its fickle journey to the next world and a new magical adventure.
SNik's review:
Part of a multi-author series (Fortune Favors the Fae), but can be read as a standalone. Paranormal adventure. Slow burn. Found family. Single POV.
Damian works for a secret organization specializing in taking down the illegal usage of magical artifacts, when he runs into a possible European royal Cassander as they dodge groups of men trying to assassinate either one or both of them. Ending up in his small hometown he hasn’t revisited in more than ten years, Damian has to navigate his estranged family, and more possible dangers as he discovers there is more magic in the world than just artifacts.
I enjoyed the immediate action and constant danger as Damian uses all his con man skills to survive each obstacle thrown at him and Cassander. I did wish for more romance, but Damian and Cassander do reach a point where they can’t imagine being apart. There are quite a few twists and turns to the story, as all kinds of new world building is revealed throughout, and all the secondary characters ended up being an interesting and integral part of Damian and Cassander’s journey.
