Short chapters lend to a quick-paced plot, which makes for easy reading. I couldn’t put it down. I love all the puzzles and secrets upon secrets, and this surprisingly had a very satisfying conclusion! I was worried that it would feel like the author didn’t know where she was going when she started, but it didn’t feel like that at all. I thought it was very well done.
These books are plot-focused, but the characters are pretty wonderful. Avery still got some nice development in this one, even with the fast pace. And I love any time I can spend with the Hawthorne brothers. (I would loooove for there to be a book about Grayson in the future please 🙏🏼)
Anyways, can’t recommend this series enough, especially if you need something more light-hearted and fun!

“I can’t even hate him now. He’s a part of me. He’s in me.’ Jameson’s fingers lightly touched my hair, then curled into it. ‘But mostly, I can’t hate him, Avery Kylie Grambs, because he brought me you.”
“Jameson Winchester Hawthorne in protective mode was a thing to behold.”
“I threw Tobias Hawthorne under the bus. Thoroughly and without mercy. Dead men didn’t get to be picky about their reputations, and that went double for dead men who’d used me the way he had.”
