"Once an assassin, always an assassin."


THAT ENDING!! The last 40 pages were full of chaos (in a good way) and a giant twist that I didn't see coming.

The beginning was a bit hard to get through, especially the first 160 pages, but I'm so glad I stuck with it, this was amazing!

We follow Mika, also known as the now-retired Silent Assassin, who is a Null or someone who doesn't have a 'power'. Believing she has escaped her past, Mika is soon sold to another kingdom to help locate and rescue their missing princess. She embarks on this journey with one of the best motley crews I’ve ever read: Beans, Riley, Bitty, and Tovi. I loved the found family aspect of this! There were so many great moments during their travels that will put a smile on your face! At first, I thought there were too many characters, but it was easy to follow, they are all amazing and have their own loveable personalities.

There was so much sexual tension in this omg, I just LOVED the chemistry between Mika & Riley!

-fmc is an assassin at first, though at first, she doesn’t come across as one and seems more childish than a strong assassin character. However, she has moments where her strength as an assassin shines through, which is quite intriguing. The second half of the book definitely highlights her redeeming qualities.

-the beginning of them traveling felt like a drag but quickly got more interesting as I read on


“I’d almost risk it. For one taste.” He leans closer, and closer. “But I’ll wait,” he says to the place where the corner of my lips meets my cheek. His lips brush my skin as he speaks. “It’ll be worth it.”
