📖Book Info

Take back your kingdom

Gisela Bloodthorn is trained to kill. She has spent her life enslaved as an assassin in the court of the Centaurs, where only the strongest survive.

Now, the Centaur queen has a final assignment for protect the Oath Keeper who holds the contract that will keep their enemy at bay and kill the queen’s enemies and Gisela will go free.

But when Gisela discovers her first Outlaw known as Xaydin, Gisela learns that the Outlaws aren’t what they seem. Nor are they easily slain.

Xaydin isn’t just a bastard half-troll, he’s an assassin who has dedicated his life to ridding the Thirteen Kingdoms of the Oath Keepers, especially the one who holds the contract Gisela has been sworn to protect.

But trust doesn’t come easy to either of them. If they can’t find common ground and fight their real enemy, both of them will lose everything and everyone they care for.

💭Our Thoughts

This is the second book in the Myths & Outlaws Series, and things are starting to get pretty wild!

Gisela is the queen's blade.

The perfect killing machine.

When Queen Meara offers her the one thing she desires most, her freedom, in exchange for “securing” and protecting the Apaswere, or Oath Keeper,who holds the queen’s contract with Dash

She doesn't hesitate

But we all know it's not going to be that easy

Xaydin has sworn to hunt down and exterminate all Apaswere after one of them wrongly killed his father.

His current mission?

To find and dispose of the Apaswere carrying Dash’s contract.

Easy Peasy

Until Gisela crosses his path

This had so many “OMG, you have got to be kidding me" moments scattered among some of the best misleading breadcrumb trails.

Edge of your seat suspense

With twists you won't see coming

Detailed world-building

Missions within missions

Secrets that will change everything

Shifters and Magical creatures galore!

Banter

Dry humor

A five-star supporting cast of characters who, on numerous occasions, stole the scene

Villains who will give you a serious case of the icks

And don’t even get me started on the sexual tension between these two

This ends on a “happy enough for now.”

You know things are going to get FUBAR'd as we go

I need the next episode!!
