Okay so I'm not great at writing reviews but I love these books so much that I thought it deserved a review. Once again I was guessing until the end. I was loosing sleep over this book, the characters once agin made me cry and laugh until I was crying. Watching Chris fall in love with Nikki all over again broke my heart. He was always there for her even when he wasn't sure why. She helped him through some stuff and he saved her time and time again, there was never a dull moment during this trilogy. I would strongly recommend these books to anyone and everyone. Even though I am sad the series had to come to an end, I couldn't be happier with the way it ended.

I wasn’t a fan of this one. The age gap for the romance was uncomfortable for me and I found the story to move slow. Also didn’t enjoy the characters at all.

As always, spectacular. It is so awe-inspiring how even after two books, none of the events that happened weren't even remotely expected. The deceit and deception throughout keep on the edge the whole time. The end could not have been more satisfying. I must say, I really loved how Chris Martinez ended up with Nicki Kill. The resolution was set out perfectly, with all the loose ends tied up.
An incredibly satisfying finale!

I was getting really worried there near the end. I kept thinking, How can she possibly wrap this up in like sixty pages?! But she did, and it was awesome. Maybe a little abrupt, but it was still a satisfying ending with all the loose ends tied up.
Jennifer Brown has yet to disappoint me. I'm a genuine fan. :)

Fun fact about me: If my ships sail and you give me the HEA, I'm almost always gonna be happy with the ending. That's just how I work. There are, naturally, exceptions to this rule, but this series is not one of them. :) I love Nikki and Chris and have been rooting for them and their relationship since book one.Jennifer Brown has yet to disappoint me. I'm a genuine fan. :)

For me, this conclusion to the Nikki Kill series was better than the first but not as good as the second. The reason? My favorite, favorite, FAVORITE thing about this series has always been Detective Chris Martinez. Nikki is a great character, sure, but she was always creeping on the line between "sassy and badass" and "childish and selfish and annoying." Chris never had that problem, IMO. He was that kind of constant, lovable character that keeps you reading.
Now, I don't know if this is a spoiler or not so don't read on if you haven't read the second book yet.
Chris loses his freaking memory.
Yes, he gets amnesia. *sighs*
Mind you, even though this highly annoyed me, I still give this book 4 stars because the concept is so different and cool from anything I've read in this genre. And the conclusion was satisfying, but I just really wish there were more satisfying moments BEFORE the last 10 pages, you get my drift? Nevertheless, I did really enjoy this trilogy and will fondly remember the late nights spent completely enveloped in these unique mysteries.

The end of an okay series. The narrator was a little more annoying in this one.

Loved reading this end of the series! The mystery from the very beginning-her mom's death-is investigated, and it was such a great read! And the ending was just perfect!
