Up In Smoke was just as amazing as I thought it would be. If you know this author already then you know the kind of story she writes. They are dark, the guys and gals are amazing (even if they are a little rough around the edges) and it gets all wrapped up in an amazing story that you don't want to put down once you start. Oh, and there can be some pretty messed up situations as this author does not hold back. Anything can happen But it works and it works oh so well. I love reading her books!

Smoke is on a mission. He wants revenge and he will not stop until he gets it. He has to find Frankie's father and will do anything he has to to find him. Including kidnapping Frankie to flush him out.

Frankie is a computer hacker working on lots of things that could get her killed but helps others. She doesn't really have any friends or let anyone too close to her because she can't chance things blowing up in her face and taking others with her. She is careful and paranoid and always watching her back, but you can't always be safe. I loved how much fight she had in her. She has her own mission, her own things she is trying to accomplish, and she will not stop trying to escape so she can get back to them.

I loved these two. I loved how they slowly start falling for each other in this crazy situation. I loved Frankie's secrets and how this all worked out. What was going on and who was involved and the glimpses of characters from prior books in the series were amazing! There is something there between them, but it is rough because Smoke can't keep Frankie. He made promises and he intends to uphold them...only plans sometimes change. Oh, they were so amazing together! I was actually surprised how much I loved Smoke. How sweet he was under his gruff exterior. He was amazing and seeing him open up a little bit with Frankie? Priceless. I could have read on and on and on. I wasn't sure this would be my favorite read going in. Something about it made me say eh, I will probably enjoy it, but Smoke and Frankie might not be my favorite couple of the series, but I was wrong. They are just as great as everyone else I have met in this wonderful world.
