About A Taste of Gold and Iron
Kadou, prince of Arasht and brother to the queen, is humiliated after a political clash and must prove his loyalty by investigating a guild break-in. With the stern new bodyguard Evemer at his side, he uncovers a counterfeiting conspiracy in a world where precious metals can be touch-tasted and politics, myth, duty, and queer romance are dangerously entwined.
