Review: 3.5 Stars - Too much info for a novella
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 06 2, 2014
In this first installment, we meet Catarina and the rest of the “convent”, who are really undercover assassins.  She has been training since she was a child, and we learn a bit about her first assignment and a follow-up one to prove herself once and for all to the team, so she can finally claim her codename of Night Fury.  It seems Catarina is instantly smitten with a new team member, Marco, even though she had been in love with an older team member for years.  I thought I was going to have a love triangle on my hands, but Catarina chose the new guy pretty quickly, and fell into his bed almost immediately after her first assignment in 2 years.  You are definitely left with unanswered questions at the end, so you will feel the anticipation for the next installment, which unfortunately has not been communicated.  I think I would have liked this more if it didn’t seem so rushed, with several things thrown at me for a novella-size story; and I’ve read plenty of novellas that didn’t have this problem.  This definitely would have been better as a full, fleshed out novel.I received a copy from the author.
