Iron & Velvet
Iron & Velvet | Alexis Hall
8 posts | 11 read | 14 to read
First rule in this line of business: don't sleep with the client. My name's Kate Kane, and when an eight-hundred-year-old vampire prince came to me with a case, I should have told her no. But I've always been a sucker for a femme fatale. It always goes the same way. You move too fast, you get in too deep, and before you know it, someone winds up dead. Last time it was my partner. This time it could be me. Yesterday a werewolf was murdered outside the Velvet, the night-time playground of one of the most powerful vampires in England. Now half the monsters in London are at each other's throats, and the other half are trying to get in my pants. The Witch Queen will protect her own, the wolves are out for vengeance, and the vampires are out for, y'know, blood. I've got a killer on the loose, a war on the horizon, and a scotch on the rocks. It's going to be an interesting day.

My daily Proust reminded me I had mini madeleines in my freezer. I pulled them out, dredged them in lemon glaze, and ate more than three alongside this very British urban fantasy by Alexis Hall. It‘s got great atmosphere so far. I can‘t wait to wallow in it.

CarolynM I keep meaning to try the Kate Kane series. I‘ll be interested to see what you think. 13mo
BrandedKristen I love this book. Hope you enjoy it! 12mo
xicanti @CarolynM I thought it was great, but I seem to recall fantasy is a hard sell for you, so you‘ll probably want to wait until the next time the ebook gets discounted. 12mo
xicanti @TheShadowJournals just finished. I had a great time with it, even though it took me way longer than it should‘ve! 12mo
CarolynM You‘re right, I‘m not a fan of fantasy, but I‘ll follow Alexis Hall pretty much anywhere. I loved 12mo

Really enjoyed this book. Feel like it‘s been on TBR for a while and it was perfect for #TeamHendrix

Kate is a PI, her partner is dead, she has a vampire stalking her and some tentacle monster is killing creatures.

fun read that was very relaxed in style, like a good friend recounting their adventures. Pokes fun at a lot of genre tropes but was engaging and made me chuckle.

Just picked this up for this month's book club pick! Anyone else part of Felicia Day's book club, #VaginalFantasy? 💋🔍 if not, you should check it out on YouTube! Every month we read some sort of genre romance featuring a strong female lead. Then Felicia Day, Veronica Belmont, Kiala Kazebee, and Bonnie Burton host a live discussion online!

Can't wait to read this romantic vampire mystery noir!

BookishFeminist I follow her book club off/on! I might have to pick this one up. Sounds good! 8y
AngelicRanger Just started reading this too - loving the humour so far! 😁 8y
