Loved this box set. My first time for reading the. You have intriguing, complex, exciting, emotional, dramatic characters. Then a story line that meshes so well with the characters. It is a very enjoyable read. With its twists and turns it definitely keeps your attention. Highly recommend it. I was given a review copy by booksprout and voluntarily review it.
This was an amazing box set. I loved the characters and the author did a great job with tying everything together, all the twist and turns made this into a lovely series. The action, adventure, danger and romance really draw you in and I was hooked from the very beginning. Orion and Phoenix brought about the amazing ending by planning an attack that would require a group effort thereby putting them finally all together and Heaven and Caspian shows us the fruit of their labor. Heaven is the most powerful druid and with her story we learn of the true architect of these hearts. Due to the horrible treatment that she endured, Heaven decided to take a back seat to the chaos the Unwashed were creating but with her love for the assassin Caspian, she finally decides to get back in the fight and help with the destruction of the hearts. A magnificent ending to an incredible series definitely worth giving a read.
We are drawn into a complex world of champions, mystics, guardians, assassins, and seers. The readers will need to keep their heads in the game on this series to follow the activity and intrigue. The Box Set consists of 4 books in this series: Itzel’s Assassin, Rosaline’s Assassin, Phoenix’s Assassin, and Heaven’s Assassin. Below is a review of two of the books to hopefully interest you in this wonderful set!
*** Reviewing ROSALINE’S ASSASSIN – BOOK 2) ***
Rosaline thought about her calm and predictable life. But she started seeing things differently when Ignacio was around. He was the youngest of the assassins, but his skills were far beyond his years. He seemed lively, his emotions genuine, and was talkative and engaged when he was around Rosaline. She thought his assassin work would change him as it had others, but he was still eager to experience life with enthusiasm. He started to talk to her, but Darius, Orion and Ignacio had to leave, probably to discuss the mission, and Rosaline turned toward her chambers, wondering what their exchange was all about.
Rosaline was a priestess who, at her mother’s urging, had taken the vows that would prepare her for becoming a High Priestess. Yet it had not been HER dream, and she was still not sure it was the right path for her. When even Caspian, the assassin who had flirted or slept with almost every druid she knew, said it was the best path for her, it dashed her hopes for something else and she set her own doubts aside.
Letting her curiosity take over, Rosaline turned and followed the assassins, sitting outside near a window to listen in on their conversation. The emotionless Darius expressed concern and uncertainty about Ignacio going to Ishtar, feeling it would be dangerous even if the more experienced Orion went. Most knew that the Unwashed had taken over in Ishtar, since the majority of the seers in the last few years were either being influenced by the Unwashed or were completely under their control. The Unwashed were trying to destroy all magic users and had done horrible things to them. Rosaline feared for Ignacio’s inexperience if sent there alone; but Orion, his mentor, seemed confident in him and Darius accepted his judgment. They needed to convince Dulce to get out of there. It was becoming too dangerous. Ignacio’s instincts were calling him to go there, even if he wasn’t aware of the whole situation.
As the Unwashed continue trying to destroy the magic users, Rosaline and Ignacio are drawn into the fight against them and find themselves becoming closer to each other. Ignacio will protect her fiercely. There is wonderful chemistry building between them as they realize what they mean to each other. Will they survive the battle and find the chance to explore this new relationship?
*** Reviewing ITZEL’S ASSASSIN – BOOK 1 ***
Itzel is a Druid who felt that by avoiding the mystics, it would only put druids and assassins in greater danger, so she had decided to go as a representative to negotiate with the Mystic Queen Freya. She knew that they needed to take risks to join with the only people who could help them fight against the powerful cult movement known as the Unwashed. Darius, her current traveling companion and a skilled albino Assassin, had immediately insisted on coming along with her and she still was not sure why he would go so far from home and against his better judgment.
Itzel ultimately thought that Freya was acting childishly when she hurried away from Itzel and Haiden. Now it was up to Hector to reach her. When Haiden and Itzel sat at a small table café discussing the status of things, Darius showed up announcing that he and Itzel had to leave. It looked like he had stirred up the Unwashed somehow and a number of them could be seen on the opposite shore, preparing to cross the bay and head to the capital. As Darius and Itzel stopped in the woods so he could hide his disguise, they made a wager with each other that surprised each of them. Itzel, if she won, wanted to see him smile at her daily, when no one else was around, for 100 years. That guaranteed that she too would be smiling every day. If Darius won, he wanted to go out on another outside mission with her because, even when they disagreed, their discussions were productive – and he enjoyed her company. When he shook her hand, she continued to hold it, thinking about him and what he meant – until she became aware he was inches away from her face, with an odd look, and asking if she was okay.
Darius told Itzel about the plans of the Unwashed. They needed to defeat them before they snatched the queen away. Would this all unfold as Darius believed it would? Would Hector do his part in handling the corrupted Council betrayers and protecting Queen Freya? And would Itzel find the love of her life in a very shocking way?
I love this series. The characters are complex and pull the reader into the story as they come alive on the pages! The story lines are always very good, and the reader will eagerly want to dive into the rest of these books!
This bundle contains four books about forbidden love with panther shifters. This is well written, and has something for everyone.

ITZEL’S ASSASSIN
The characters are absolutely fantastic. They have a depth to them that just makes them leap off the pages and straight into your heart. Their story is filled with action, adventure, danger and passion. It is well-written, flows well and kept me engaged from start to finish with the plot offering twists and turns that keep you guessing and on the edge of your seat.
ROSALINE’ S ASSASSIN
I am so enjoying this series, I think we are all fascinated by age old battle of good vs evil and with each blow that “evil” strikes “good” hits back which makes for thrilling reading but beyond that battle you have wonderfully crafted characters who have a great depth of personality and everyday problems (as well as supernatural problems of course). Who hasn’t, at some point in their lives, wondered if they are on the right path or else drifted on a path that someone else has set out for them whilst knowing it isn’t what they want. This is the situation Rosaline finds herself in and if she wants to get off that path she will need to make big decisions that will change her future irrevocably. Ignacio is wonderful, whilst young he is very, very good at what he does and is wise far beyond his years. As these two battle together they become closer but their future is uncertain until Rosaline makes a decision. If you want to know what her decision is you’ll have to read the book. I can guarantee you won’t be sorry you did.
PHOENIX’S ASSASSIN
Orion and Phoenix’s story is unique within the series and is at times heartbreaking and at others heartwarming but theirs, as with the other couples, is not a smooth road to travel and they will face opposition, danger and trying to find a way to finally be together full-time.
HEAVEN’S ASSASSIN
I loved Caspian, he was so young when he first found his way into that space between world’s where he met a druid unlike any he had met previously. She became a protector and always had his back when he needed her most. The characters are beautifully crafted and the story is different and yet continues with the same quality as the rest of the books in the series. I found it captivating.

Something must be in the air in the era that is described in the worlds of Brigantia.
Many of the psychics, druids and seers suddenly find their fated mates around the same time – just when it becomes important for the countries of Brigantia to fight against the Unwashed.
This book is the collection of the stories from the druids and their assassins. If you already followed the stories of Brigantia then some of the events are already familiar to you, but now told from a different point of view.
Despite the similarities in the basic story, all stories of Brigantia are unique and every character is different from the rest. It was a pleasure to read this next set.

I enjoyed reading this box set, the stories all have great storylines. I always enjoy reading this author, and I can’t wait for more. I received this box set as a FREE ARC copy to read and I voluntarily leave this review.
Lisa Daniels has a great series about the Shifters of Brigantia, a world where magic users have their protectors suitable for their specific magic. This loose series follows the efforts of magic users and their shifter protectors trying to stop the demise of their way of life. Everyone that isn’t human is in jeopardy of death, or worse, from the Unwashed a fanatical group that wants to destroy all magic, at any cost, even their souls. While I have questions about backstory as mentioned below, I do recommend the full series to those that enjoy good shifter and magic stories.
ITZEL’S ASSASSIN
The Seers have been all but destroyed from the inside by their own seers corrupted by the Unwashed. This segment of the story follows the efforts of the Druid Itzel and the Assassin Darius to find a corrupt seer and to encourage the Mystic Queen to join the efforts to stop the Unwashed, to no avail.
ROSALINE’ S ASSASSIN
This edition of the series highlights Rosaline’s and Ignacio’s adventures. Rosaline, a Druid Priestess on the way to becoming a High Priestess, is starting to question if this is truly her path to follow. Ignacio is the youngest assassin there is, but has skills beyond his years.
PHOENIX’S ASSASSIN
This is Orion and Phoenix’s story. Orion is not a true assassin and it appears Phoenix isn’t a true druid. A thousand years ago Phoenix made a deal with an entity from another plane that she has come to regret. Orion has waited a millennia enjoing the few times they have been together. Now they are working to destroy all the Hearts and save Brigatania, if they can survive.
HEAVEN’S ASSASSIN
Caspian was just a young Assassin-in-training when he found the way into an empty space between worlds where he met a young druid that was unlike any he had met so far. He never knew her name, but through the years she was there when he was most In need of help.
There are other stories about Brigatania that are not in this set. Many of my questions might be resolved if I had read all the Champion, Guardian, Tiger and Panther stories. Also, some of the stories happen in the same timeline, making it hard to give details in one story without giving the other story away. I just kept feeling some of the backstory was missing as I kept trying to figure what I missed (i.e., when Caspian moved Mercy to Callies village). Maybe footnotes telling us what book to read for details. Therefore, I feel I can only give four stars for this otherwise great story
