The second installment in Lauren Dane’s Rowan Summerwaite series, Blade to the Keep, more than kept pace with the first book. A huge fan of Lauren Dane, I almost feel like she can’t go wrong. Rowan is the perfect mix of tough with an underlying vulnerability. Her tenacity, intelligence, and intuition come […]
