RED KISS by Deidre Knight
The second installment in Deidre Knight's hot new Gods of Midnight series, RED KISS is finally out! If you read the first one, RED FIRE, then you've been dancing on the same pins and needles I have waiting for River's story. These immortal Spartan warriors are all sexy and intriguing, but River was my favorite from the start.
And RED KISS totally delivers. River, an ex-slave who sacrificed himself to save his friends at the end of RED FIRE, is my favorite kind of hero; damaged and lost when he meets the heroine, who inspires him to strive to be a man she could love. Emma is that rarest of all heroines--a woman who is actually good enough for my beloved River! She is immediately drawn to him, and is protective of him without being a doormat. Their chemistry is ferocious and the final resolution...*sob* It's perfect. And now I'm panting after Ari...
Book description from Gods of Midnight site:
Immortal warrior and Spartan slave River Kassandros has a special gift—the ability to transform into any weapon. But in a recent battle, he was trapped as a dagger, unable to become human again. His one hope of salvation is a mere mortal…
When Emma Lowery beaches her kayak on an uninhabited island off the coast of Savannah, an ancient dagger seems to call out to her. Compelled by dark forces, Emma draws blood with his blade, freeing River. Now he’s stronger, angrier—and exudes more sensuality than Emma can resist.
But a sinister power wants to claim River’s destiny, and his precarious freedom. The pair must join the Spartan warriors to fight Ares himself. But can they face sacrificing their love to protect humankind from the war god’s demonic plan?

I have to agree with Lost Angel's comments. One look and yeah, I'd open the book. Knowing Deidre Knight is the author clinches the deal

OMG! You guys are making my day! Thanks for all the wonderful words, and huge thanks to Louisa for the blog promo!! I'm really excited that RED KISS has hit the shelves. For those who read RED FIRE, this is River's story--and, by the way, you don't have to read RED FIRE first, although you'll probably enjoy it a bit more.
Thanks, gang! hugs, D

I'm working through as many romance authors as I can to get a feel for the genre - this looks like another good series to check out. I want to read yours too! ;)
