Sofia Quinn lost her father a year ago and
has been on the run ever since. She knows how to read people and has pulled off
more than one successful con. Gideon Marchant is better known as his online
hacking persona: The Knave of Hearts. When Gideon and Sofia find themselves
close to being caught in LaRoux Industries (for different reasons), they end up
needing each other to escape.
I loved this book so much! This is probably my favorite of this whole series because
so much happens! All the players come back from the previous book and it’s like
one big amazing reunion (but it’s not really a reunion for the characters who
are all coincidentally tied together in many ways).
I could not get enough of the snippets
between the chapters. Those passages kept building on each other. Each time I
would be swept away by the beautiful writing. All of those pieces continually
weaved into a stunning masterpiece and I was blow away. So many times I stopped
and reread those paragraphs because they were so good.
I really enjoyed the pairing of Sofia and
Gideon. Out of all they guys in this series, Gideon is probably my favorite.
His sense of humor was great and I laughed so many times, but I also was drawn
in by his goodness. He acted arrogant, but underneath he is a great guy. He’s
also quite intelligent and he sticks up for his friends.
Sofia was so much fun to read because she
knew how to work people to get what she wanted. She really felt like the most
flawed and damaged character in this whole series. Unlike everyone else, the
pain she holds is fresh and she’s still reeling from her father’s death. Her
journey throughout this book was amazing to witness because she grows so much.
She starts out so hardened by the world and it’s spectacular to see her change
into something beautiful.
This book was the perfect end to this
series and it made me finally come to terms with (and almost enjoy) what I didn’t
like in These Broken Stars. I never
wanted this book to end, especially with the full cast from the series joining
in.
My one complaint to this book is the
resolution to the main conflict (not the ending). I didn’t expect the end to
come easily, but I thought it was a bit unnatural. The authors really made it
into something beautiful, but it felt just a bit too simple.
The ending was great and perfect for this
series. I really can’t wait to see what these amazing writers will come up with
next.
