About this ebook

On one side, the Night World, rules by the Blood Lords and the Beast Kind. On the other, the elusive Fae and the humans, protected by their steadfast mages...

Born a wraith, Lily is a shadow who slips between worlds. Brought up by a Blood Lord and raised to be his assassin, she is little more than a slave. But when Lily meets her match in target Simon DuCaine, the unlikely bond that develops between them threatens to disrupt an already stretched peace in a city on the verge of being torn apart...

Ratings and reviews

I enjoyed this story of Lily learning to take control of her life. I feel the main character grew quite a bit in this book. I liked the new world and the intrigue of it all.

It was a pretty good book, I didn't loose interest so that's saying something..
