“It’s official Take a Psycho to Work Day. Why else would I be here?” Hunted. Hated. Betrayed. Outcast Dagger Ixur is on the run for his life. As one of the most recognizable members of his royal house, he has a bounty on his head that guarantees him no quarter from any friend or even family. But surrender isn’t in him. He will fight to the bitter end. A resolve that is sorely tested when he narrowly escapes a trap that leaves him severely wounded. With what he believes is his dying breath, he saves a boy born to an extinct race from a group out to enslave the kid for his legendary abilities. Ushara Altaan has spent her entire life hating the Andarion royal house that drove her entire species into virtual extinction. As a rare Andarion Fyreblood, she is sworn to end the existence of any royal she finds. But when Dagger saves her son’s life, she is torn between her people and a debt that can never be repaid. Yet worse than Dagger’s family that’s still out to end hers and him, are the League assassins after him who will stop at nothing to claim the lives of her Tavali family. The only hope she has to save them all is to put their future and her faith into the hands of the very enemy whose grandmother personally extinguished Ushara’s legendary lineage. But how can she ever trust Dagger when he is a disinherited outlaw whose real name is synonymous with betrayal?

So a while back, I started reading this book...and I haven't been able to finish it. For some reason, I'm just not “clicking” with this book. Normally, I drool and chomp at the bit to read one of Sherrilyn Kenyon's new releases. However, I oddly find this one somewhat redundant. I even did the unthinkable-I skimmed forward. Honestly, I was looking for one thing specifically...I wanted to see Nykyrian witness how much Julian has changed. Despite going all the way to around the 600s of the hardcover edition, I've only seen a few encounters between Nykyrian and his brother. In one of them, Nykyrian doesn't even recognize Julian! ASKDJFHALKSJDHGAKSDJHG this is all I ask for .-. I mean, Julian has already gotten together with Ushara before even 50% of the book. So the rest is just filler at this point. Plus, there's one release for every one of Kenyon's series each year in addition to there already being so many characters in each series already; I've forgotten a lot of people's names and their stories, sadly. -sigh- I'm pretty certain I'll finish this book someday...just so I can continue on with the series. However, that may be later rather than sooner.
