Castor’s Kiss (Soul Bonded in the Stars Book 2) by Tai James – Review by Vanessa Watts

Castor’s Kiss by Tai James
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an amazing book that left me on the edge of my seat needing to know what happens next. I laughed, I was brought to tears, I became angry at what they had to endure, pretty much I was a hot mess for this entire book but I would recommend it to everyone!

Mia, our female main character/champion if you will, has not had an easy time of things. After being tortured, left for dead, then found and forced to fight other beings to earn credits and glory for her captor. Trust doesn;t come easy, she is bitter and unaffected just fighting to stay alive until partnered with someone she can’t sit idly by and watch die. This may turn out to be her saving grace after all her future is unpredictable. Enter Castor who makes a deal with Throl to earn Mia’s freedom, but what Throl has in mind ensures little chance of survival for either of them. As they must now fight as a team, feelings build and they learn they are soul mates not yet bonded but the more they are together the stronger the bond becomes. Can Mia learn to trust Castor when all past experiences have led to heartache and pain? Can they work through their own pasts and beliefs to not only make it out of these trials alive but potentially build a future? Lastly, can they make it out alive to even have a chance at a future?

This book is a must read to answer all these questions and more. There are so many twists and turns in this book including characters you hate and then something changes and you might hate them a little less. If you like romance novels with a hunger game-like twist then this book is right up your alley. It doesn’t even seem like five stars could ever be enough for this good of a book, I am in awe of what this author produced and now must venture out to see what other gems they have produced.
