I\u2019m not much into violence or political intrigue in my romances. That said, last year I read an excerpt from <strong>The Irish Warrior<\/strong> and was champing at the bit the read the rest.<\/p>\n<p>The story begins with some violence. Okay, perhaps a lot of violence. Our hero, Finian O\u2019Melaghlin, an Irish noble, warrior, and chief to the O\u2019Fail king, is being tortured by Rardove, an English lord who is evil with a capital E. Rardove wants to use Finian to secure documents, a blueprint to create the Wishm\u00e9s dyes. These legendary dyes have the power of chemical weaponry. The side who possesses them would be indestructible. Rardove wants them. Finian is out to make sure he never gets them.<\/p>\n<p>Our heroine, Senna de Valery, arrives in Ireland to meet with Rardove to finalize a deal for her wool business. What she finds instead is Rardove intent on marrying her and utilizing the gift he believes she inherited from her mother, who was a Wishm\u00e9s <em>dye witch<\/em> (as they called them). This is not what Senna came for so she refuses him and is quickly and violently shown that no one refuses Rardove.<\/p>\n<p>Desperate, after seeing Finian shackled and sharing a silent potent exchange with him, she connives by drugging Rardove and the prison guards, escaping with Finian, whom she needs as a guide in this unfamiliar land.<\/p>\n<p>But on the run, they are wanted fugitives with bounties on their head, for Rardove will stop at nothing to get Senna back. Their flight from Rardove is both taut with sexual tension as well as breath-stealing suspense. They have to evade Rardove\u2019s men, English soldiers and anyone else who might be inclined to turn them in. I have to say my heart was in my throat half the time and the other half the time, I was literally swooning at the hotter than hot love scenes. These love scenes are only part of the reason that Finian is a <strong><em>HERO TO DIE FOR!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In one of the more light-hearted moments of the book, Senna and Finian hide out in a brothel is a village where one of Rardove\u2019s men just announced a bounty on their head and then proceeds to lock the gates to the village (locking them inside). There, in the brothel, the woman are complaining that the men use their <em>services<\/em> and then leave without paying. Senna intervenes and proceeds to instruct the woman in the matters of shrewd commerce.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\u201cAnd this business of collecting payment after the service is rendered\u2026?\u201d Senna shook her head sagely. \u201cThat is a poor practice indeed. You collect beforehand. In your business\u2014not that I know much of it,\u201d she added quickly, \u201cbut I\u2019ve a brother and a father, and I know them rather well. You simply cannot expect their assessment of the value of the goods\u2026to remain as high after they have \u2026sampled.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I read the last fifty pages of the book with my heart in my throat, I swear to you. It\u2019s been awhile since I\u2019ve gotten  emotional like that over a book. I think the last time was when I was reading <em>Stephen King\u2019s<\/em> <strong>Misery<\/strong> and Annie (the crazy antagonist) was chopping of the protagonist\u2019s foot. I was in complete <strong>agony<\/strong>! And my goodness, if I wasn\u2019t already crazy in love with Finian then (which I was), I fell fathoms deep in love with him then. I swear he\u2019s the kind of hero we need to find a way to bring to life. I\u2019ve reread the end countless times just so I can swoon over him again and again and again.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hard to believe this is only <em>Kris Kennedy\u2019s<\/em> second book. She is one medieval author who\u2019s managed to make this reader, who was never very partial to medievals, into one that will pick up any medieval\u2014any book\u2014with her name on it. I\u2019m eagerly anticipating her next book (I pray it&#8217;s about Senna&#8217;s brother) and getting a physical copy of this one for my keeper shelf. \ud83d\ude42 <strong>~ Beverley<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating:<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #008000;\">9  (Excellent) <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Heat-Level: <\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4  (Hot) <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-3395\" data-postid=\"3395\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-3395 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Irish Warrior Author: Kris Kennedy Publisher: Zebra\/Kensington Pub.
