Ewan is an assassin with a convoluted idea of love and a troubled past.
As a child, Taryn's heart was stolen by the broody bad boy. Too bad that he was her devious sister's boyfriend. When Ewan disappears and her sister abandons her and her father to marry a rich older man, Taryn is left to survive.
One chance meeting will change their lives forever. Will Ewan see what is meant to be and see the past for what it was? Or will he make the same mistake again and lose the love of his life?

The Assassin's Atonement

 “He really loves you,” Tamsyn mumbles sharply. “Ava tells me that he looks at you like you’re the most important thing in his life. And I can see that you feel the same way.” 


 I turn to my sister and cross my arms protectively in front of my chest. She sounds bitter, which puts me on edge. I don’t want to be here. I’m just too angry at her for abandoning dad, and for not going to his funeral. 


 “Yes, he does love me, and I love him, too,” I reply evenly. 


 This is not a conversation that I want to have with Tamsyn, considering that she used to be Ewan’s girlfriend. But I have to make it very clear that Ewan is off-limits since she kissed him not too long ago.
