![]() It has its moments, and it wasn’t a bad way to beguile a half hour, but not quite my thing either. Introducing Cinnamon Blade, the snarky, irreverent bisexual Jewish heroine of my new high-heat 1.99 super hero f/f romance, Cinnamon Blade, Knife in. I wanted more of the other stuff - Blade’s relationship with the team, for instance, because the little we got to see of Captain Werewolf (the aforementioned more religiously observant best friend) was pretty cool. Can they have a nice and quiet date, like everyone else This a pretty short but super fun read. But she can't ignore the share attraction between her and Soledad Castillo. ![]() Unfortunately, I think maybe I just don’t quite get on with Shira Glassman’s writing, which just doesn’t do much for me… and I definitely didn’t work well with the jump-start the romance got, heading straight off into mildly kinky (public) sex and more or less staying there, with superhero interludes. Cinnamon Blade is a full-time superhero, fighting vampires and aliens, rescuing civilians and having her friends, and teammates, back. ![]() ![]() Her relationship with Soledad, a woman she has ended up rescuing again and again, is passionate and at the same time dorky and cute. There’s a lot to like about Cinnamon Blade: Cinnamon Blade herself is a cat burglar turned superhero who also happens to be Jewish and bisexual, and her background - and that of her more religiously observant best friend - are baked into the story in little ways. ![]()
