**From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon comes
Born of Night, the first book in her blockbuster series, The
League.
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.
