2010 book 210

Diana Peterfreund's Rampant
Teenager Astrid has grown up on her mother's stories of how they're descended from a long line of unicorn hunters--because unicorns are actually vicious and deadly, not the pretty and romantic creatures of legend--but has always half-believed her mother is crazy, until she sees evidence that unicorns are no longer extinct, and is sent to Rome to train to be a hunter, much against her will. In Rome, she of course meets a cute boy, learns to accept her destiny, has adventures, etc. I'm, of course, a sucker for unicorns (I grew up in the 80s--how can I help it?) and enjoyed this immensely. The sequel come out in September and I can't wait!
