It's not every day your fated mate targets you for assassination
A lonely foster teen meets a Fae warrior on assignment.
Crysta is freakishly different, never quite fitting in with her various
foster families. Her shocking looks and creepy powers scare off
potential friends, and her otherworldly presence tends to attract
unwelcome and dangerous admirers. Now that she is finally on her own,
her plan is to focus on dance, trust absolutely no one, and avoid the
rest of humanity.
Her plans are shattered when a handsome man breaks into her apartment and declares he’s there to kill her.
But Crysta isn’t afraid she'll lose her life.
She’s far more terrified she’ll lose her heart.
As a highly skilled assassin and future heir to the Seelie throne,
Prince Jareth carries the weight of the Fae realm on his shoulders. When
he’s given the assignment to take out one of the biggest threats the
Seelie Court has ever known, he’s not expecting said threat to come in
the form of a petite teenager who can barely afford to feed her cat let
alone mastermind the destruction of an entire world.
He’s duty-bound to see this assignment through, until he realizes he’s been sent to kill his fated mate.
He must follow through with his assignment or risk the wrath of his
father, but killing Crysta means losing the most precious gift a Fae
warrior could ever hope to receive.

4 STARS
This was a really good, imaginative story. The eBook cover is what caused me to slow down and read the book information. It was just so beautiful, that I have to mention it. The main characters were good with both being very determined "people". The world-building was excellent and so was the dangers that they were faced with.
I liked how Crysta showed how difficult things had been for her until this time. She never really fit in and was always just the weird one. Even though the new information she was getting was so hard for her to believe, it also explained a few things too. Things definitely just got weirder for her but then everything that Jareth knew just got upended too.
A surprising confrontation causes a H.E.A. for now ending. But it looks like there are more books to this story if you want to see what else happens for and to this couple next.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from Booksprout. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
