An assassin falls for his estranged father's counselor and protects her from danger. He's a deadly killer, but full of flirty charm and jokes, while she's awkward, a bit prickly but with a kind heart. Sparks fly upon their first meeting, and it didn't take long before feelings are involved. He's very tender and affectionate towards her, and his complete honesty and his determination to pursue and protect her is very sweet. 

Their chemistry and connection is convincing, and I found their romance to be on the sweet side despite the underworld vibes. And they're pretty hot when they get it on! But

he pulled the 'left you for your own good' crap at the *worst* time and that sucked. And he didn't even have to grovel!

But I also enjoyed all the action, and the gang is fun.
