3.5 stars

I am on the fence with this story. There are MANY parts that I loved and other parts that I struggled with. There were quite a few areas that left me puzzled (such as her basically being the mother to her brothers but then after that filled a part of the story it was just dropped off). There was a lot going on at the beginning which I have discovered was because this is a spinoff. However, the premise of this story and the whole buildup of what their organization does and how they do it had me riveted to the page. I enjoyed the cat and mouse game between Olivia and Adam. At times, it did come across as juvenile, but even then the idea of it was titillating.

So, even though I did struggle with aspects of this story, I have to commend the author on writing a story that 100% kept me interested to overlook those aspects and keep me going to the end of the book. It is for that reason that I am rounding this up to a 4 and will have me looking into the next book.
