Publisher's Summary

An immortal assassin is caught between desire and duty in this sizzling new novel from Kresley Cole's number-one New York Times best-selling Immortals After Dark series.

A foundling raised in a world of humans

Growing up, orphaned Josephine didn't know who or what she was - just that she was "bad", an outcast with strange powers. Protecting her baby brother, Thaddeus, became her entire life. The day he was taken away began Jo's transition from angry girl...to would-be superhero...to enchanting villain.

A lethally sensual enforcer on a mission

Whether by bow or in bed, archer Rune the Baneblood never fails to eliminate his target. In his sights: the oldest living Valkyrie. Yet before he can strike, he encounters a vampiric creature whose beauty mesmerizes him. With one bite, she pierces him with aching pleasure, stealing his forbidden blood - and jeopardizing the secrets of his brethren.

A boundless passion that will lead to sweet ruin...

Could this exquisite female be a spy sent by the very Valkyrie he hunts? Rune knows he must not trust Josephine, yet he's unable to turn her away. When Jo betrays the identity of the one man she will die to protect, she and Rune become locked in a treacherous battle of wills that pits ultimate loyalty against unbridled lust.

Two narrators are better than one

Love Kresley Cole!

I love Kresley Cole's writing style. It makes me so happy to read/listen to her stories many times over!Then there is Robert Petkoffas the narrator. He is a master of different voices and accents that I find myself forgetting it's just a single person narrator.
Highly recommend

GREAT story

The love story aside, you find out a lot about the big battle and Nix’s plans.

Love the new characters

Love the new characters and the direction kresley Cole has gone with the series. At first I was sad it wasn't based on characters that are known and loved but now I can't wait for every new addition. Well written and engaging the whole way through. #Audible1
