That was the follow up book to The Long Game and I found it to be way better than the first book in this series. Way better.

The characters were the side characters from the first book. Manic and flawed, but fun. I wish that there was a little of the introduction from book 1 added to this book. I think because so much was riding on the sister relationship and best friendship, but then not getting to see the characters interact until almost the end made the disconnect from book 1 even more pronounced. I knew who I was supposed to be reading about, I just felt like I was dumped into the middle instead of being introduced to the new couple. 


The tension and banter was really good. I found myself laughing multiple times.

Thank you NetGalley and Atria Books for an eARC of this book. All opinions are my own.
