Assassin's Heart

Author: Sarah Ahiers
Pages: 400
Publisher: HarperTeen
Release Date: February 2nd 2016 
In the kingdom of Lovero, nine rival Families of assassins lawfully kill people for a price. As a highly skilled member of one of these powerful clans, seventeen-year-old Lea Saldana has always trusted in the strength of her Family. Until she awakens to find them murdered and her home in flames. The Da Vias, the Saldanas’ biggest enemy, must be responsible—and Lea should have seen it coming. But her secret relationship with the Da Vias’ son, Val, has clouded her otherwise killer instinct—and given the Da Vias more reason than ever to take her Family down. Racked with guilt and shattered over Val’s probable betrayal, Lea sets out to even the score, with her heart set on retaliation and only one thought clear in her mind: make the Da Vias pay. With shades of The Godfather and Romeo and Juliet, this richly imagined fantasy from debut author Sarah Ahiers is a story of love, lies, and the ultimate vengeance.

Why I'm Waiting...

This book sounds so epic. If it's anything I love, it's assassins in fantasy novels. Like yes, give it to me. I want to read and devour this book and enjoy it. Really excited to read about this fantasy world but also about Lea, because she is an assassin, I am excited for the badass character. I am super excited to meet Val and read about his and Lea's relationship. Also, the revenge aspect of this book will definitely be interesting to read. The cover is also absolutely gorgeous as well and screams fantasy and darkness.

So tell me: Have you heard of this book? What are your thoughts on it?
