Brave Enough To Love Again by CalliopeBlythe

I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery.

The Scarlet Assassin by Bookwormwithapencil

With Ravaryn on the brink of war, King Orson becomes desperate for any edge against the ever-growing Targaryn kingdom. So desperate, he calls to his rebellious, decorated assassin to murder the crowned prince, soon to be king. Vera is resistant at first, but when the king proposes her freedom in exchange for the prince's head, she reluctantly agrees. The only problem? This mission is near to impossible, and her team of thieves is made up of four teenagers.... and two new additions -a defiant princess with daddy issues and a cold-blooded soldier with a mission to kill. -------------------- Then we stood at the mouth of the sewer, staring into the dark abyss with nothing but a finicky lamp and an unusual team of six rebellious kids. What we were about to do was treason at the highest level. It was hard not to think about as it thrummed in my body, through my blood. My adrenaline was already pumping through me. If we got caught... if any of us were recognized... The consequences were too severe to think about. But, then again, though we faced impending doom, I knew I secretly loved it--the rush. I craved it, sought it out. That's what brought us here, thousands of miles from our home, about to enter the enemy's heart. "Are you ready?" I asked, to no one in particular but saw it fitting. Sophie gave me a weak smile, but it was Sorin who responded, smirking cockily and flipping his only blade into his holster. "Let's go kill a prince."

Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal.
