The Bloodhollows-a group of rebels whose sole purpose in life is to stir up trouble in the royal court-have seemed to find themselves in need of a certain assassin, whether they like it or not.
          17 year-old assassin and Blade of Raynelle for King Stryker of House Lythe, Sage Duras is a stubborn, merciless, and dangerous woman. Her choices were not hers to make-for she made them solely to survive. Sage has a reputation that inspires fear amongst the courts of lords and ladies, and her prestige has never been damaged for the 5 years she has worked for the King-until the corrupt Prince. 
          Prince Cypher Lythe and The Blade of Raynelle have never gotten along-but after uncovering the Blade's deepest secret, they seem to have no choice but to embark on a journey to save the people of the Realm. The Prince is royally disliked amongst the courts-even gaining the title of Fallen Shadow. But the people of Raynelle adore him, and the corrupt Prince would love nothing more than to get his revenge on those who have caused him pain. The question is-will The Blade of Raynelle help the Fallen Shadow-or betray him?

"You have to stop doing that." "Stop doing what?" "Saying things that make me want to kiss you when I can't."    Becoming the prince's personal bodyguard should be a dream come true, shouldn't it? Good pay, palace life, but the real gem that everyone covets? A chance to captivate or simply befriend the future king. However, for Larissa Fable, being entrusted to safeguard Prince Casimir Hughes appears to be one of her greatest misgivings in life. Refusing to accept a female bodyguard, Casimir vows to brew more chaos than ever, going as far as burning an apartment to cinders. However, fate takes an unexpected turn when they embark on a clandestine journey in search of a missing princess. As they venture deeper, shadows of concealed truths, some irredeemably grave, begin to surface between them. Each revelation, a crack in the façade of appearances. Larissa cannot help but find herself teetering on the edge of a precipice that threatens not just her identity, but her very life. Yet, amidst the haunting echoes of secrets, Larissa and Casimir find themselves drawn together in ways neither anticipated.

Things aren't going too well in the kingdom of Gushénn. The very oasis it's built upon is drying up, the border conflicts with the savages are becoming worse, and the royal family is starting to fall apart. And, to make matters worse, an elite group of anarchists has joined forces to kill King Vincent and steal his throne. Against her will, the infamous assassin Alister finds herself in the thick of things. She trained for her entire life to become the perfect human weapon, able to kill a man a dozen ways without batting an eye. The entire life that she's built for herself starts to crumble, however, as she's blackmailed into banding with the anarchists. But Rose Alister isn't as immoral as she seems. Even as an angel of death, she still finds that there are limits to what she is willing to do for money. Because of that, her loyalty and support for Prince James--the king's unappreciated and unstable younger son--become her greatest hindrance and her most crippling dilemma. For the first time in her life, she cannot bring herself to kill without remorse. As the anarchy plot within the kingdom thickens, assassin and prince come together. It's up to them to decide whether the kingdom is worth saving, even as they are forced to determine if they can first save themselves. Faced with a multitude of conflicts, Rose and James must put pride aside and learn to work together. But how can two clashing personalities hope to join forces and fix themselves, let alone mend a crumbling kingdom? (Disclaimer: "On The Edge of a Blade" addresses heavy themes. There is light profanity and references to some topics that are inappropriate for younger audiences. Please be aware of that while reading, though it shouldn't reach past a PG-13 rating. The most common justification for such a rating will be violence.) Cover Credits: @Owelz_The_Only
