Blood Assassin surrounds beautiful, bald Sentinel Fane and the psychic he's loved from afar for years, Serra. Serra finds herself in a sticky situation when she is required to help find another high-blood's kidnapped little girl. She has to finish the quest before she can head back to Valhalla to nurse her broken heart. Luckily, her longtime not-so-secret man crush, Fane comes to help her complete the search. Along the way, they burn up a lot more than just miles while seeking out the missing little girl.

Blood Assassin filled in what I felt was missing from the first book in The Sentinels series, Born in Blood. The missing link was more in-depth and longer love scenes, and Blood Assassin fulfilled that requirement for me! In the second installment though, I felt like the villain, Bas, was...not necessarily lame, but he just wasn't the big badass that he was supposed to be! I mean, the readers and even the main characters kept being told that Bas was incredibly dangerous and deadly, but we never saw that at all!

All in all, Blood Assassin was a good one for me. I'm definitely looking forward to the next in the series!
