In this dark and seductive YA fantasy debut, perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and These Violent Delights, a siren assassin falls for a forbidden man.

Killer. Liar. Soldier. Spy.

Saoirse is a killer: Her ability to sing men to an early death makes her the top assassin in the kingdom.

Saoirse is a liar: If the royal family ever finds out she’s a siren, she’ll be executed immediately.

Saoirse is a soldier: As the top student at the most prestigious training academy in Kierdre, Saoirse has spent years honing herself into the perfect killing machine.

Saoirse is a spy: When her little sister is blackmailed, Saoirse takes a dangerous job to protect her—personal bodyguard to the crown prince. One misstep, and Saoirse will lose her life.

But the biggest threat of all is to her heart. Prince Hayes would call for her death in an instant if he knew the truth. But the closer Saoirse gets to Hayes, the harder it gets to resist him.

Awesome!!

Loved the pacing of this book! Author did a great job with the character development!!

Best fantasy book of the year

Absolutely loved this new take on sirens and Iam so excited for the next week . I want more from the prince !

Pulls you in...

This story just makes you reflect on our current world and how fantasy is not that far off... the have and have nots, the good and bad or maybe there is a middle vs. the extreme. Loved how the writer gave me moments to hate the 'heroine' and feel empathy for the 'villian'. I finished these 2 books in a week because I had to know how it ends. One disappointing suspense (i.e. Rain) but the rest is shocking and well worth the read!

Masterpiece!

i normally don't read fantasy, but this was absolutely amazing. Burton masterfully creates this world and develops 3-dimensional characters. Whether or not you agree with the actions of the characters, you understand their perspective. I absolutely loved every moment of this book from the opening scene to the very last word, I was hooked. I am not ready for the story to end and am looking forward to book 2.

Big Themes Powerful Characters

Gabi Burton did an excellent job with this debut novel. The world she created was beautiful, fantastic and cohesive. Her characters were strong and nuanced. I can’t wait for the second novel.

Great drama

A great drama that has plenty of different characters and magic, as well as royalty. This is a great story, a main character that is struggling with her own insecurities and battling her own demons. I love that found family- sort of. Betrayal is shocking, but necessary for the outcome. I cannot wait for the next book!

awesome storybuilding, spellbinding twists. 👏🏿👏🏿

Awesome storybuilding, spellbinding twists.
Vivid descriptions, layered plot. Overall, a very enjoyable listen. I am looking forward to the sequel.

I wish I could give this 10 stars

Absolutely incredible! That ending 🤯 I cannot wait for book two! This book is perfect for fans of Holly Black’s Cruel Prince trilogy. You will not be disappointed. Also, amazing narration by Dami Olukoya!

Great debut!

This was a great debut story! This book had me engaged and wanting to know what would happen next. It was interesting to see a morally grey female lead while the love interest is the opposite. Can’t wait to pick up the sequel!

Great (and dark!) ya read

This was a refreshing listen after so many ya/na with teen fmc’s who “aren’t like the other girls.” The main character is morally grey and doesn’t feel bad about it. She’s clever, strong, and cares deeply for her family. The audio book was awesome! Fantastic narration.
