Pretty cliche in almost every way. Super powerful, combat trained, strong woman… who is just oh so clumsy and inexplicably still needs a male body guard, who by the way is super hot, to justify inane reasons to physically touch her all the time. Throw in a not so shocking betrayal, a “if you just talked to each other about your feelings this would be resolved” romantic subplot and a book full of hints to various tragic backstories and you have this mediocre YA modern urban fantasy.
It wasn’t bad, but I’ve heard it all done (better) before.
Did not enjoy nearly as much as her other series.
