“ROMANTASY GIRLIES THIS ONE'S FOR YOU!! I truly did not want this one to end! Five dangerous liars must work together to assassinate the god King Joon. I loved every single one of these unreliable sneaky characters! The romance, the plot, the character building, the world building, and even the ending was all chef's kiss! My top book of the year and it will be a hard one to beat! 100000/10 recommend! ”

“I LOVED this fast paced Romantasy. It kept me captivated until the last page. The 6 very in depth MC’s were corrupt, dangerous people with their own agendas, motives and points of view. They were liars with lots of secrets! But they all had one thing in common, which was to kill King Joon. Throughout the story they actually became friends, even risking their lives for each other and some romances were kindled. The shock factor was off the charts -- 5 stars. I can’t wait for book two.”

“Five killers are forced to work together to assassinate the God King, each with their own personal motive. But can they learn to trust each other and actually survive? I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! I didn't want to put it down, it was so captivating. The author does a great job making every point-of-view have their own voice, and keeping the story dynamic. I am in dire need of the sequel after that wild ending. (Content warnings are plentiful—Do look them up!) ”

“Great fantasy heist with romance. Characters were clearly distinct from each other in perspective and in vocal performance! I enjoyed hearing their inner thoughts and motives. Ending was built up to deliver a satisfying conclusion and hope for a sequel!”
