This book centred on Jax and Vel, the Bug bounty hunter.
And despite how much I liked March in books 1 and 2, I shipped VEL and JAX so much!! He’s so intelligent and courteous and helpful. His backstory is tragic—exiled from his planet for being different. And he’s had human lovers?!?!
I know we’re supposed to see that Jax can’t live without March, but I honestly I think the author herself was torn. This whole book seems to be an argument as to why Jax should be with Vel. There’s no doubt in my mind he loves her and would do anything for her.
I guess his personality lacks the passion and thrill-seeking that Jax craves. Sigh. But Vel is a bounty hunter and with the war starting, I’m sure she’ll get lots of near death experiences in the fourth book.
I hope there’s more of the rest of the crew in book 4. They were rather incidental in this book.
Also I suspect Jax will keep the tattoo Vel made for her. She respects him too much to get rid of it.
March is not going to like that lol.
