Shield of Winter (Psy-Changeling #13) by Nalini Singh


Blurb:
Assassin. Soldier. Arrow. That is who Vasic is, who he will always be. His soul drenched in blood, his conscience heavy with the weight of all he’s done, he exists in the shadows, far from the hope his people can almost touch—if only they do not first drown in the murderous insanity of a lethal contagion. To stop the wave of death, Vasic must complete the simplest and most difficult mission of his life. 

For if the Psy race is to survive, the empaths must wake…

Having rebuilt her life after medical “treatment” that violated her mind and sought to stifle her abilities, Ivy should have run from the black-clad Arrow with eyes of winter frost. But Ivy Jane has never done what she should. Now, she'll fight for her people, and for this Arrow who stands as her living shield, yet believes he is beyond redemption. But as the world turns to screaming crimson, even Ivy’s fierce will may not be enough to save Vasic from the cold darkness…

My review:
I LOVE Nalini Singh! I think she is incapable of putting out a bad book.  Other than the fact that I was really hoping that this would be Aiden’s book Shield of Winter did not disappoint.  Vasic has been a quiet hero in the previous books.  He has used his incredible talent to save countless lives.  Sadly he focuses on the lives he didn’t save and those he took.  He feels deeply for a Psy Arrow who is supposed to be Silent.   With the fall of Silence the Arrows will play a pivotal part in helping the Psy to recover.  Ivy is a powerful empathy who had been “rehabilitated” for her breach of Silence.  Fortunately it didn’t destroy her or her abilities because her gifts may be the very ones needed to save those that thought to wipe out those same gifts.  Can Ivy and Vasic save each other?  Of course but you definitely want to read along to find out how.
