Ivy is a 20 year old assassin working for The Red Roses, a secret agency, the best in the assassin world.
Getting into deep trouble is one of Ivy's strong points and always seem to land her in life or death situations. One day she knows this habit will get her killed but she won't wait around.
With the Red Roses being first class assassins, their leader is, understandably, paranoid at all times. This is trouble for Ivy when she is accused of selling out her agency, her second home, and is forced to escape into hiding. Her hiding place isn't incredibly amazing so she isn't particularly surprised when a rival agency finds her and gives her an offer.
It's an offer she can't refuse. Join the Eagle Strike and her and her family are put under their protection.
But there's a catch. She has to help them take down the Red Roses. And she's doubtful even she would be capable of attacking those she considered family. Even if she is the best of the best.
Can she go through with the offer laid out before her? Or will she crack under the pressure?

Phoenix
My entire body felt on fire under his intense gaze. I tried my best to avoid eye contact as he towered over me, but once my eyes met his, the usual amber color of his orbs went darker and darker until they were now of a fervent brown shade and his pupils dilated drastically. The sight shocked me, causing goosebumps to rise all across my arms as electricity shot up my spine and my stomach erupted not in butterflies, but rather, I'd say in pterodactyls. It was both a terrifying and mesmeric sight... ___________________________________________ After being dared to kiss the first person to enter the dark room, 19 year old Essence later finds out that the person she kissed, 21 year old Phoenix, is her hand to hand combat trainer in her new assassin's school.

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.
