Spotlight Chapter: Chapter One

Summary: Elizabeth Guinea is an assassin, and she is not one to be reckoned with. Upon completing her years of training within the Order of the Assassin's, Elizabeth is summoned to English Court with her mentor, Hudson Armstrong, to protect the Royal Family from the Order of the Knights, a widely known group of corrupt noblemen. As she and Hudson eliminate threats to the throne, they begin to face threats of their own, including Elizabeth's estranged father. While trying to forget her difficult past with her father, protect the Royals and avoid the scandal and betrayal of Court, Elizabeth begins to play against the rules at the dangerous game of Court -- at the risk of losing her head. 

Author's Note: Hi everyone! I am so excited to be in the spotlight this week, and I would like to give a huge shoutout to the people behind the who make everything possible! I drew a lot of inspiration for this book from my own life (to an extent of course, a lot of things are metaphorical for me) and I have put so much work into it, so I'm excited to hear everyone's feedback! The chapter I have spotlighted this week does exceed 2800 words, and I put a marker, but if you do choose to read on, now or in the future, I hope you enjoy it!
