“Keeper of the Scarlet Petals,” by A. N. Skye 

 

To be a Keeper is to dedicate your entire life to protecting the wealthy you are charged with. Jasmine is in training to be a Keeper after a life of being a thief on the streets. She is assigned early to protect a young nobleman whose family was murdered. The nobleman is drives her mad with annoyance and she struggles with keeping him alive with assassins out to end him. 

 

I really liked this book. It has a lot of bickering and rivals to lover’s trope. I liked that the warriors aren’t just warriors but also caretakers doing tasks like cooking food for their assigned charges, it made the story stand out in uniqueness. The book was on the slow side because not a lot actually happens, it’s a lot of daily things with some action once in a while but I like the world that was built, and the characters were heartwarming and sweet. 4 out of 5 stars. 

 

Thank you for the ARC, Netgalley.
