I took a month off from the Rinaverse to focus on some other books and now I’m diving right into it. I’ll be honest, I did start this book at the end of January, listened to like 8 chapters of it and grew a little tired/bored of the story. So, I paused it took a month off and am so glad I did because now that I’m back in this world! I’ve found my love for it again!

***Light SPOILERS ahead if you’ve not read previous books!***

Rai’s story is such a unique one. The twins’ backstory is so sad! And it’s crazy to see how one person’s life could have gone in so many directions and we definitely see that in the twins. Her strength and her confidence is so admirable especially in the world she is living in. I am rooting for a happy ending for her in terms of her power and career. She deserves it all after all her hard work.

Kyle on the other hand…idk what to make of him. His background is an interesting one. I do love an assassin in my books! But I’m finding it hard to determine why he’s doing what he’s doing. Either Rina’s got me stumped or I’ve been away from her writing for too long!

Anyway, this was a wonderful read but I definitely wouldn’t read this story without at least reading the Lies & Truth duet! 

Lastly, shout out to Shane East and Vanessa Edwin! I wouldn’t be consuming these books without y’all!
