BORN OF VENGEANCE: THE LEAGUE: NEMESIS RISING by SHERRILYN KENYON

Bastien was the sole survivor of the vicious slaughter of his lovely fam, and his wife named him the brutal killer. And now, the League, a bunch of crazy and brilliant killers, is out there, trying to hunt him down and put the guy down. Nobody could ever escape their wrath, but Bastien is not one to back down from a fight. He won't rest until every single one of his enemies, the people that betrayed him, will be lying six feet under the cold ground.

A whole decade passes, and he's still not at peace with what happened. However, the valiant warrior has a chance to "level the field" and to balance the scale in this unholy war. But, in order to do that, he will have to put his trust in his ex-wingman, his wife's sister. Ember, a major, joined forces with the outlaws after her city fell and a bunch of tyrants conquered it.

She was left on the outside, ready to die from the enemy's deadly blow. Yes, she doesn't want to get into politics again, but, at the same time, she can't just sit around and do nothing while the killers of her mom and dad are walking around and enjoying the affluent life. Revenge is the only thing that's driving her: she was living in exile with her sisters for far too long, and now it's time to "return the favor".

She's hiding a secret that Bastien will kill her for, but she needs him to follow her, otherwise, she won't be able to complete her mission. It's not easy for her to lie to a man that she shared more than a few fights with in the past, but it is what it is. Yet, she soon learns that he's far more important to the entire world that she could ever think...Born of Vengeance is a top-notch fantasy novel with enough action, drama, and romance to get you hooked up from the get-go.
