He just needs to ensure no one finds out how the blaze began.

With the Guild watching, Asher must decide what he’s willing to do to protect the woman he loves.

I can't believe I almost passed on this book. I wasn't totally convinced by reading the summary, but then I was hearing great things and I heard it was mmf not a love triangle and I was sold. I devoured this book and was disappointed every single time I had to put it down to participate in real life.
Brigid has crafted this perfect slow burn between our three MCs. The yearning and tension was utter perfection. I am obsessed with Daddy Ky. Everytime Jory and Asher cause some sort of chaos, I was laughing at how exasperated Ky was. I loved how perfectly the three fell into not just their relationships as "couples" but also as a group.
The twists and turns of the book kept me hooked as well. There isn't a huge cliffhanger at the end, but I'm anxious for book two all the same. Warrior Princess Assassin had me glued to the pages with the story, the tension, and the yearning and I highly recommend to any romantasy lover!!
