Life isn't always easy for a Shade assassin. Darian's extraordinary abilities have made her indispensable to the Shaede Nation, as well as their king, Alexander Peck. But disregard for her own safety and inability to steer clear of danger, has driven her protector, Tyler, to his breaking point. Darian wants to salvage their tenuous bond, but her new assignment, to protect Anya—the first Shaede to become pregnant in centuries—quickly takes precedence over Darian's love life.
Darian's rivalry with Anya doesn't help the situation, but when it becomes clear that someone—or something—is determined to destroy both mother and unborn child, Darian has no choice but to put her dislike for Anya aside and track down her would-be assassin.
As she digs into Anya's past, Darian discovers deeply buried secrets—and a startling link between Tyler and the assignment that could destroy the mystical connection that binds them…

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Darian is powerful even for a Shaede, able to merge with light as well as shadow, but at the start of Bonilla's third Seattle-centered urban fantasy title (after 2012's Blood Before Sunrise), the departure of Tyler, Darian's bonded Jinn and lover, has left her in a helpless funk. Shaede King Xander assigns her to protect a pregnant Shaede from Kade, a demon who can steal his victims' supernatural powers and force them into sexual submission. Darian assembles an elite team of fighters, but Kade is protected by a Jinn, Adira, who has a mysterious connection with Tyler. Darian must free her from Kade's thrall while struggling with her attraction to the Shaede king. As in previous books, the friendship between Darian and Xander's lieutenant Raif anchors the story more than Darian's complicated sexual relationships. Well-wrought action sequences and high-stakes suspense ensure the narrative doesn't drag, but readers may be put off by scenes of sexual assault.
