Book Review: Prince’s Gambit, by C.S. Pacat

princes gambitAbout the book:
With their countries on the brink of war, Damen and his new master, Prince Laurent, must exchange the intrigues of the palace for the sweeping might of the battlefield as they travel to the border to avert a lethal plot.

Forced to hide his identity, Damen finds himself increasingly drawn to the dangerous, charismatic Laurent. But as the fledgling trust between the two men deepens, the truth of secrets from both their pasts is poised to deal them the crowning death blow . . .

Review:
Of the three, this was by far my favorite. I very much enjoyed the way Laurent’s mind worked and Damen’s stolid dependability. The slow burn as the two came to trust each other was wonderful, and the twisty-turny plot kept me guessing, as did a lot of the hints dropped for future reveals. Man, I feel sorry for those who read this 3 years ago and had to WAIT to get the last one.
