MY RATING  STARS


A unique, intricate start to a three-book series about a brother and sister in hiding, from what? I'm not sure…it's only hinted at in this first book.  I struggled with the writing at times and I think that's why it took me so long to finish this.

Jackson and Jillian Knight or actually Jude and Jessica Day are a smart, sexy, and oh so snarky set of twins. They are members of G.A.I.L. (Guardian Angels for Innocent Lives) and therefore they were experts in two areas: combat and survival. This excerpt from the beginning suggests that this story is more action than romance, but really there is more romance than action, that's not to suggest it's slow either. 

While I loathe series where the story is strung out over 3 or more books, I thought I would give this author a try.  This first book centers on Jillian/Jessica and has a story within a story, one that will have your feelings all over the place. It's a little dark, a little sad, and sometimes so laugh out loud amusing. 

UPDATE...I read this four years ago and thought that I would one day finish the series...but I still haven't done so and it's highly questionable that I ever will...unless it comes out on Audio.  Also, I've recently listened to a duology by this author that I did really enjoy.
