Summar:
What kind of assassin works pro bono?
It’s hard to be a badass assassin when a giant is beating the crap out of you. Luckily, I never let pride get in the way of my work. My current mission is personal: annihilate Mab Monroe, the Fire elemental who murdered my family. Which means protecting my identity, even if I have to conceal my powerful Stone and Ice magic when I need it most. To the public, I’m Gin Blanco, owner of Ashland’s best barbecue joint. To my friends, I’m the Spider, retired assassin. I still do favors on the side. Like ridding a vampire friend of her oversized stalker—Mab’s right-hand goon who almost got me dead with his massive fists. At least irresistible Owen Grayson is on my side. The man knows too much about me, but I’ll take my chances.
REVIEW
Gin attempts to take on a pretty formidable bad guy in this book. In going into it, she's pretty sure she's going to lose, but does that stop her from trying? Oh hells no! That's what I like about Gin - she's so fearless. She's also kind of wondering how on earth she went from being a feared and ruthless hired killer, to being everybody's favourite friendly neighbourhood assassin, working for any old sob story, but she's just sort of rolling with it. She does have a new, and much more personal, vendetta she's working on over the course of these books as well, which sounds very interesting thus far.
Good stuff! 5 stars! ★★★★★
