Confessions_of_a_Serial_Reader's Reviews > Assassin's Kiss

Tainted Kiss was the first book that I read by Sharon Kay in preparation for Assassins Kiss. Now let me tell you, I couldn't put either down and finished them back to back. I kept going back to the thought of 'What happened to Scorpio?'. Before you ask, book 1 does not end in a cliffhanger and both books can be read as a stand alone BUT I would suggest reading both because they are just that captivating!

Assassins Kiss is the story of Scorpio the assassin turned Watcher and Tessa the metal controlling witch. Scorpio knows once he sees Tessa that she is meant to be his. There is only one problem: Scorpio is cursed and he did a great injustice to Tessa's people creating almost the end of their lives as a Coven.

Sparks fly between Scorpio and Tessa. His only ally is Tessa's cat Jinx. That has to count for something though, right? Can Tessa help Scorpio lift the curse and give them a chance at everything they could ever want or will the forces of darkness crush the destiny before them?

This is my confession: This series is a must read, regardless if it isn't your usual genre!
