Brazen by Avery Flynn
3.0
The second B-Squad book begins a little bit after [b:Bullet Proof: A MacKenzie Family Novella (MacKenzie World, #2)|27993625|Bullet Proof A MacKenzie Family Novella (MacKenzie World, #2) (B-Squad, #0.5)|Avery Flynn|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1448584347s/27993625.jpg|47995710] ends--the squad has been established, and is hard at work trying to find its last member (Gidget) and keep the drug Bianca and Taz were exposed to in the last book off the streets. Bianca and Taz are living together, and everything seems to be going along swimmingly until Bianca is blindsided by the ex (or is she?) wife she didn't know Taz even had. How well does she really know him? Is their relationship based on nothing more than lust and sex?
(Speaking of sex, there's an awful lot of it in this one. Some of it in public...)
So yeah, the pressure's on.
I liked the beginning and end of the book the best--their time on the island seemed to veer away from the mission somewhat (and raised some questions--like if Bianca needs Elisa to give her "ten pounds" of contouring as a part of her disguise, what would she have done on day two, when she wakes up contour-free and Elisa's not there to fix her up again? Or if she just smudged it on the beach?) The next book in the series (Bang) is nicely set up, and the book after that (Bold) is hinted at (poor Marco's mom!) and my interest in them is sufficiently piqued to make me keep an eye on Goodreads to see when I can add them to my TBR.
Though you could definitely read this one without having read [b:Bullet Proof: A MacKenzie Family Novella (MacKenzie World, #2)|27993625|Bullet Proof A MacKenzie Family Novella (MacKenzie World, #2) (B-Squad, #0.5)|Avery Flynn|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1448584347s/27993625.jpg|47995710]. the introductory novella does a good job of introducing the characters and the situation they find themselves in here and can answer a few questions for you.
Rating: 3 stars / C
