Someone is murdering the citizens of Kira’s village, and her fellow thieves are being blamed. Desperate to clear their names and restore the reputation of the guild, Kira embarks on a dangerous mission to infiltrate the palace and enlist the help of the king and queen.
One man stands in her way, Chaol, the head guard, who threatens to steal the thief’s heart.
And he’s not the only one. Her childhood crush on Badrick might finally be developing into something more than friendship. But only if they can figure out who is threatening to kill them before it is too late.
Kira wants to trust Kingsman, the man who took her in and raised her as his own, but she is starting to wonder if he has been lying to her all along.
Can the three men closest to her keep Kira safe long enough for her to carry out her plan to save the village? Or will the secrets they have kept from her destroy her happiness—and her life—before she has a chance to clear her name and prove the innocence of those she cares about the most?
Excerpt:
He watched
the mouth of the cave in the night. He’d be stupid to enter it now, so he’d
wait. He had hated her from the beginning, perhaps because she’d seen through
his disguise the moment she laid eyes on him. The only difference between them
was that she wasn’t afraid to voice her opinion. His fingers tingled. He was
eager to kill her, every last one of them. If it wasn’t for Silas he would have
done it already.
He’d had a
life before he met Silas. He’d lived in a small farming town a few miles up
north where the land was fertile from the rain during the spring seasons. He’d
had loving parents who would do anything for their son. That was, until he lost
them in a riot. The same riot Kira had lost her parents to. The same one that
had left her stranded in the streets to fend for herself at the ripe age of
six. His hands tightened into fists. She would understand what drove him to do
what he did, wouldn’t she?
