Community rating: 3.6/5 from 4 ratings.
The first in an assassin academy, why choose romance, for fans of Tate James and Jaymin Eve.
CHOOSE: DEATH OR WINGS.
These are the only two options presented to Adelaide Sinclair when she’s plucked out of her tragic life and dragged straight into a place that will either forge her into a killer… or kill her.
Welcome to Blackwing Academy: where initiates can only leave in one of two ways—Graduation or a body bag. Adelaide quickly learns that here, survival means more than passing deadly assessments and outsmarting classmates with murderous intentions—it means surviving the three instructors ordered to break her down and remake her into their deadliest asset yet.
One hones her body. One sharpens her mind. One perfects her aim.
All inspire violence.
Will the boys of Blackwing steal her heart?
Or will they cut it from her chest?
