Love, Blood and Fury: Strings of Fate: Book One (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645054804)

A Fury should never love.

A Fury should never feel emotion.

A Fury should never question fate.

Ariiaya Trillia is a Fury, a Fae assassin working for the Three Fates to end the lives of those chosen by the magical Tapestry of Life.

Sent to the impenetrable castle of Viridya, she is set with the assignment to assassinate Lorch Kruel, the young King of Fythnar.

Arii is taken into the King's guard as a recruit and quickly realizes that this assignment is going to be harder than she expected. The King is shadowed closely by a mysterious, hooded male bodyguard who radiates power and displays a prowess for combat that matches her own.

To the North, a darkness is manifesting and powerful magic unseen in over two hundred years awakens, threatening the future of the entire land.

Arii soon finds her heart threatening to crack in two as emotions unfamiliar to her flood forth, and she is faced with a choice she never thought an assassin would have to make.

Fulfil her duty to kill the King or fight against fate to save the entire kingdom.

A dark, thrilling fantasy debut filled with magic, sizzling romance and unforgettable characters that will leave you breathless and wanting more. This is the beginning of a trilogy and ends on a cliffhanger. Love, Blood & Fury marks the debut of Melissa J Kincaid, self published author from Australia.
