5.0

This is the sixth book in the series about super villains who despite their best efforts not to end up turning into the unlikeliest of heroes. It's a book for anyone who likes comic books, but with a realistic twist and blurred lines between good and evil, focusing mainly on intentions. The tropes that this books also follows is found family and throughout the series you find the various members of the group coming together and building even stronger bonds even with the most unexpected individuals.

An unlikely couple, a hero and villain, coming together to fulfill their destiny together and complete each other in ways that they did not expect. I personally did not like the male character when I first read about him from the other books, I found him to be too high strung and not someone who would be easy to get along with however the longer I read his side of the story the more I realised that it was his power and his background which made him that way. There were so many unexpected twists in this story that I couldn't believe it as I was reading it however I have always found myself to be pleasantly surprised by the author and the characters.
