In the Clear by Kathryn Nolan

5.0

This book is devastating in the best possible way!

Sloane is a BADASS!! We all knew the woman to bring Abe Royal to his knees would have to be, and damn! She’s sharp, she’s in control. She’s sexy. Everything I wanted for Abe. The push and pull of these two together is incredible to read! Sloane breaking down Abe’s walls is everything! We’ve gotten to know Abe through the last two books, but I was not prepared for how much I would fall in love with the broody Codex leader. We see so much more of his personality shine in this book and I adore it! What a complex, smart, caring, loving hero we have! The glimpses we get into Abe’s softer side tug at your heartstrings! The love Freya, Sam, Henry and Delilah have for him and vice versa is so wonderful to read!

There are so many amazing lines from this book...Kathryn is a master with words! I love all of her books (Strictly Professional is one of my all time favorites!) but Abe and Sloane just may have taken that coveted spot! The plot, the intrigue, the twists and turns, the tension, the STEAM (fans self profusely)..she is hands down one of the best!

I’m so happy the last Codex book is in the world, but I’m not ready to leave this world and these characters behind! Abe and Sloane sent us off in the best possible way. Words cannot described how much I love this book and the entire Codex world! Thank you for creating this series Kathryn....it is one of my favorites ❤️
