Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood fever. A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation. Most of the infected perished, while many of the children who survived were left with strange markings. Adelina's black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Her cruel father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their family's good name and standing in the way of their fortune. But some of the fever's survivors are rumored to posses more than just scars - they believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called the Young Elites.
Teren Santoro works for the king. As Leader of the Inquisition Axis, it is his job to seek out the Young Elites, to destroy them before they destroy the nation. He believes the Young Elites to be dangerous and vengeful, but it's Teren who may posses the darkest secret of all.
Enzo Valenciano is a member of the Dagger Society. This secret sect of Young Elites seeks out others like them before the Inquisition Axis can. But when the Daggers find Adelina, they discover someone with powers like they've never seen.
Adelina want to believe Enzo is on her side, and that Teren is the true enemy. But the lives of these three will collide in unexpected ways, as each fights a very different and personal battle. But of one thing they are all certain: Adelina has abilities that shouldn't belong in this world. A vengeful blackness in her heart. And a desire to destroy all who dare to cross her.
It is my turn to use. My turn to hurt.

Review
I loooooovvvveeeee this book. It is common for the main character to posses a power of all the good things. But this, this is far from that. Adelina just a dark personality with dark past and dark magic. Her ability is drawn by fear and anger. She is definitely a badass.
The plot twist successfuly keeping me on the edge while reading it. It's kinda sad that no one trust Adelina, but hey, that is what make everything interesting.She'll be able to be stronger with that. I drop few tears when Raffaele cut his connection with Adelina, and all the stuff he said that hurt her. I start to think that he is the bad guy in the story. Although Teren is definitely the ruthless one, but the most delicate person could do the most damage right.
Adelina and Enzo is hot, but I kinda get some vibe that something will develop between Teren and Adelina, I would love to see that in fact. Teren and Adelnia got a lot in common, also the darknes in Adelina doesn't affect Teren, so that could be the relationship cue, right?
At the end of the book we got a little spoiler of how exciting the next book will be. I'm so looking forward to read The Rose Society.
