The Darkest Assassin by Gena Showalter

5.0

This book is absolutely amazing and brilliant and all the things you're hoping for. It brings you right back to the Angels of the Dark world with our favorite characters while being absorbed into the LOTU storyline. Like, my mind is blown and I couldn't have hoped for a better story. Seriously. Feels like old school LOTU and I love it.

Gena managed to write the perfect novella, the pacing is just right, Fox and Bjorn work great together and the way they meet is priceless, one of my favorite thing ever. I loved the story and how everything got together with the Lords, and how Gena is preparing us for William's book. Speaking of William, we also get to see him in this book and his heroine too! I swear to god, I lost my mind and my heart stopped beating for a few seconds.

So, if I had one word for this book it'd be BRILLIANT (and maybe Axel). It felt like coming home and I couldn't be happier.
