I loved both of the previous installments in the Mercenary Librarians series - they are such a great blend of dystopia, romance, action, small-town living (even though the series takes place in Atlanta, because it’s broken into neighborhoods, it feels like a small town).
So did this third book live up to the others? Why yes, yes it did!! It’s awesome!!
This entry had a lot more recapping of prior events than the second book did, so you could get away with not doing a reread of the series. Although I don’t know why you would want to deny yourself the fun of a reread, but you do you 😉
The main couple in this one is Rafe & Dani, and I love them soooo much! Whether it’s the banter, the smoldering looks, the fighting…it all works. And this particular book accomplished something that I didn’t think would ever happen. Men giving women cutesy nicknames and endearments normally bugs me, because I think most of them just sound stupid. But every time Rafe called Dani “cupcake” I swooned ❤️
Oh, and surprise surprise, this is not the last book in the series like I thought it was. There’s at least one more coming, so happy reading everybody!
Thank you to NetGalley & Macmillan-Tor/Forge for this advanced reader copy. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.
