Warden and the Assassin (The Grae Sisters, Book 1) By Eve Langlais
As an assassin with unique magical abilities, I thrive in the shadows, armed with knives and a revolver gifted to me by my mother. When a mysterious magical object transports me to a perilous jungle for a job interview, I find myself intrigued by the enigmatic stranger offering me employment—despite my future-seeing sister's warnings.
The Warden, known as Bane, is both sexy and cursed, and he needs my skills to survive an arcane event threatening the world. In exchange, I can choose a treasure and potentially save the world. Suddenly thrust into the role of hero, I face countless monsters and trials, all while navigating a complicated relationship with Bane.
Despite the odds stacked against me and my sister's grim predictions, I'm determined to emerge victorious and win both the fight and Bane's love. As I confront my destiny head-on, I'll be tested, seduced, and challenged in ways I never imagined. But with my newfound resolve and the strength of our connection, I'm ready to defy fate and rewrite my own story.
