These are still delightful fun, and this time we have two new sisters! There were a couple things that seemed unnecessary or decisions that seemed to serve no actual purpose (e.g. They spend the whole book insisting they have to keep their mission and their identities a secret and I'm pretty sure literally everyone along the way very easily figures out that it's them. And also Nikita and Sheela switch clothes during the climax and I get why they chose to do that but then it had absolutely no effect on the outcome.), but it's pretty easy to set those weird bits aside and enjoy the romp. This is the first one that didn't end with some sort of tidy resolution so fair warning - you may want the next one locked and loaded and ready to go, although I can't think that the penultimate one will end any better, and the fifth one isn't out until April 2022.

Just... Just walk around me as I stand with my jaw on the floor and go into a coma until 2021 to get the resolution from that cliffhanger ending...

the ARC I had was missing the last few chapters and it's taken me this long to get a copy of the full book to finally complete it.

WHAT WAS THAT END ROSHANI WHAT WAS THAT END???

I will write a full review soon.
