Series: St. Vasili's Academy book 1
Rating: โโโโ.5
Spice: ๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
Two assassins.
He's her target.
One last mission to gain her freedom.
What could go wrong?
Vega
is an assassin who wants her freedom and is pushed to do one more mission for the organization she works for. She's to go to St. Vasili's Academy to kill one man.
Adrian
Assassin
A solider
He has no idea why Vega is at the academy or who she really is but he's determined to find out all there is to know about the woman that's turned his life upside.
The Pretty Savage is a gritty, emotional, spicy enemies to lovers dark romance. I was on the edge of my seat during this book. Vega is surrounded by killers, her enemies and she knows she can't trust anyone but herself. I love that Vega is a strong fmc and can take care of herself, but Reid also showed the other side of Vega, who wants nothing more than to be loved and cared for. I loved the way Reid told the story as well the depth that Adrian and Vega had. I loved the double pov. It was interesting and refreshing being able to see how Adrian felt and what he was thinking. Reid definitely knows how to end a book with a cliffhanger *BAM* (mind blown) which made it even more interesting and suspenseful. I can't wait to read what happens in book 2. I'll be reading L.K. Reid's other books until book 2.
