Midnight Thief by Livia Blackburne
Series: Midnight Theif #1
Expected to be Published on: July 8th 2014

Goodreads Summary: Growing up on Forge’s streets has taught Kyra how to stretch a coin. And when that’s not enough, her uncanny ability to scale walls and bypass guards helps her take what she needs. 
But when the leader of the Assassins Guild offers Kyra a lucrative job, she hesitates. She knows how to get by on her own, and she’s not sure she wants to play by his rules. But he’s persistent—and darkly attractive—and Kyra can’t quite resist his pull.

Tristam of Brancel is a young Palace knight on a mission. After his best friend is brutally murdered by Demon Riders, a clan of vicious warriors who ride bloodthirsty wildcats, Tristam vows to take them down. But as his investigation deepens, he finds his efforts thwarted by a talented thief, one who sneaks past Palace defenses with uncanny ease.

When a fateful raid throws Kyra and Tristam together, the two enemies realize that their best chance at survival—and vengeance—might be to join forces. And as their loyalties are tested to the breaking point, they learn a startling secret about Kyra’s past that threatens to reshape both their lives.

In her arresting debut novel, Livia Blackburne creates a captivating world where intrigue prowls around every corner—and danger is a way of life.

Why I'm Waiting For This?

I found this book just scrolling through goodreads, and I decided to read the summary. I absolutely love characters like Kyra, so I already know I'm going to love this book. And since this book is about assassins, you can tell it'll be full of action and adventure! I was already pretty excited to read this, and then Livia Blackburne gave me a copy of Poison Dance, which is the prequel novella leading up to this book in return for a fair review. I instantly fell in love with one of the characters!! And now I'm just dying here waiting for the book to come out so that I can read more!!

You can check out my review for Poison Dance here!

Thanks for reading <3
