Seventeen-year-old Mare Barrow is a Red, a lower-class citizen living in poverty and forced to steal to survive. With each trying to find their own destiny, war threatens to pull them apart–even as their hearts bind them together. When Shadow and Cal’s paths cross, they must become assassin and apprentice. Caledon, the current Queen’s Assassin, is tied to a blood oath he’s desperate to escape–deadly assassin is a role he never wanted. Shadow has always wanted to become the Queen’s Assassin, even though she’s expected to follow in the footsteps of her mother and aunts and become a lady of the Renovian Court.

When we submerge ourselves into alternate worlds where anything is possible and heroes reign, we begin to feel that maybe we are heroes. Let’s face it: most of us would love to be swept out of our humdrum daily existence into a world of magic, adventure, and–ahem–steamy romance.
