I’d rather face a dozen lethal assassins any night than deal with something as tricky, convoluted, and fragile as my feelings.
But here I am. Gin Blanco, the semi-retired assassin known as the Spider. Hovering outside sexy businessman Owen Grayson’s front door like a nervous teenage girl. One thing I like about Owen: he doesn’t shy away from my past—or my present. And right now I have a bull’s-eye on my forehead.
Cold-blooded Fire elemental Mab Monroe has hired one of the smartest assassins in the business to trap me. Elektra LaFleur is skilled and efficient, with deadly electrical elemental magic as potent as my own Ice and Stone powers. Which means there’s a fifty-fifty chance one of us won’t survive this battle. I intend to kill LaFleur—or die trying—because Mab wants the assassin to take out my baby sister, Detective Bria Coolidge, too.
The only problem is, Bria has no idea I’m her long-lost sibling . . . or that I’m the murderer she’s been chasing through Ashland for weeks. And what Bria doesn’t know just might get us both dead
Oh was I glad to have this little beauty in my hand. After struggling with Darkfever I was finally able to abandon it and read some quality story telling.
I love Gin. I really do. Even more now she’s out of retirement 🙂
I’m going to be realy annoyed if Caine taints Gin’ and Owen’s relationship.
Again, the only thing I can pick at it the constant retelling of past events, but that is a very, very small thing, but it does distracted me from the story. Although, if i’ve only got that to moan about I should really shut up.
I want to mention Vampires. I really like the fact that they aren’t anything special. It makes an nice change.
Hum, I’m thinking LeFleur’s brother going to make an appearance. Whether this book or the next. The actual name of the next book is starting to scare me… Spider’s Revenge. I reckon it means something’s going to hit Gin hard.
Yet again a fantastic installment of the Elemental Assassins Series
Rating: 6/6 – It Was Amazing
