Product Description:
In the Ichidian Universe, The League and their ruthless assassins rule all. Expertly trained and highly valued, the League Assassins are the backbone of the government. But not even the League is immune to corruption . . .
Command Assassin Nykyrian Quikiades once turned his back on the League—and has been hunted by them ever since. Though many have tried, none can kill him or stop him from completing his current mission: to protect Kiara Zamir, a woman whose father’s political alliance has made her a target.
As her world becomes even deadlier, Kiara must entrust her life to the same kind of beast who once killed her mother and left her for dead. Old enemies and new threaten them both and the only way they can survive is to overcome their suspicions and learn to trust in the very ones who threaten them the most: each other.

This is an author that has never let me down. A great read I hope she continues writing this series

But it will give you something different to read!!! It was very good but left me wishing for more Dark Hunters!! It's set in the far future and has aliens and stuff in which is not my bag of chips. But the love story and chemistry between the Characters kept me reading, and interested enough to read Born of Fire directly after!!! Now I have to wait for Born of Ice...

The book was good but it moved a little slow in the beginning. I had to put the book down and got back to it later.

I love, love, love this book. I could not put it down. Right from the start, this book was one of those I knew I would really enjoy. I came to love the hero, Nykyrian, immediately. His past touched my heart. The relationship which slowly grows between he and Kiara is absolutely romantic. Her character was perfect for him because she soothed the rage that roared inside him which he could hardly control until he spends time with her. Ms. Kenyon teases you with their relationship. I loved how the two main characters are constantly together instead of separated like other books. This book will definitely be placed above my other favorites to be read again and again.

Wow! I thought that nothing would take my attention from the Dark Hunter series, but this book... OMG! Somehow Sherrilyn Kenyon has found what I hadn't know she'd lost in her previous book until I completed this book. The book has great character development, it is action packed, and the readers began to love the hero NyKyrian and Kiara almost from the very beginning.
Kiara, despite her traumatizing experience as a child, has lived what appears to be a very sheltered life. In some ways she is naive (without being a complete dunce) but she makes up for it time and again throughout the entire book. Unfortunately, Kiara has become a target because of her father's high ranking status and enters NyKyrian. NyKyrian's life in a word was... brutal. In my opinion, the tale of his life makes the reader sorrowful because he's so self-enclosed, refusing to become vulnerable to anyone for fear of being hurt and/or disappointed. It was quite easy to relate to him for me.
I absolutely love how Sherrilyn told a tale of the brutality of NyKyrian's life without it being gory or making the reader feel as if they are involved in the torture and degradation of the hero/heroine. I just loved this book.
