Rent: Born of Night (A League Novel)

By Sherrilyn Kenyon

Overview & Description

In the Ichidian Universe, The League and their ruthless assassins rule all. Expertly trained and highly valued, the League Assassins are the backbone of the government. But not even the League is immune to corruption . . .

Command Assassin Nykyrian Quikiades once turned his back on the League—and has been hunted by them ever since. Though many have tried, none can kill him or stop him from completing his current mission: to protect Kiara Zamir, a woman whose father’s political alliance has made her a target.  

As her world becomes even deadlier, Kiara must entrust her life to the same kind of beast who once killed her mother and left her for dead. Old enemies and new threaten them both and the only way they can survive is to overcome their suspicions and learn to trust in the very ones who threaten them the most: each other.

This is the first installment in "The league Series."
Tis series is the the first the author wrote and the books are very hard to find, but worth the effort.
They are:
1. Born of the Night.
2. Born of Fire. (e-book)
3. Paradise City.
4. Fire and Ice. (reprint in "Man of my dreams.")

I really hope these will be reprinted, so we can all get a copy, because i like the ones i have, especially Born of the night. This author is good, and her books prove it.
I read Born of the Night the same day i got it, and did not put it down before it ended.

I have read most of her dark hunter books and loved them very much im addicted to her books because I cant put them down.

I was so thrilled to be able to get ahold of this book. I have enjoyed every book that Sherrily has written. I have been lucky enough to have met her in cyber-space and found that she is a wonderfully nice person with a great sense of humor. I hope to meet her in person some day. Until then I will have to read all of her books again and again.

Now this book is tied in with her book Paradise City. Both are sci-fi romances that pack a lot of action and heat. The hero of this book, Nemesis, is a dark, fearsome warrior who has a fierce reputation as a mercenary. He also has a secret. He has admired and dreamed about the heroine for years. Princess Kiara is a wonderful dancer who soon finds herself in very close quarters with Nemesis. He is protecting her from her father's enemies but at a high cost, his heart. The two are trying to fight their growing attraction for each other but failing. The passions soon ignite and the fireworks are fantastic.

I loved the supporting characters. They added humor and really tied the whole book together.

I hope that there maybe more in this series. Hint, Hint! If you can get this book and Paradise City as well.
