This is the second book installment in the Shadow Security series featuring Rage and Luna, co-workers who quickly become friends. Luna has a time-sensitive problem, and Rage steps in to help. Rage has had a crush on Luna since their first meeting. Rage now sees an opening to get his girl. This plot takes us on a thrilling ride full of mystery and suspense, fast-paced and action-driven with deep character development between its main characters.
Rage is a standout character who is kind and compassionate, loving, protective, and possessive in a good way, but early on you see a lot of head-banging about their future—swoon-worthy character for sure. Luna is a woman burdened with secrets who has a quirky, lovable, and eclectic personality, a superior hacker in a different life whom some liken to a Robin Hood kind of character.
These characters wrestle with their past and their own vulnerabilities. It was awesome to see a softer, vulnerable side to these characters who have very strong personalities, but felt safe enough to expose and trust one another regardless. This couple's chemistry is palpable, but more importantly, they belong together; it was refreshingly beautiful and even made me envious of them.
The author skillfully weaves in the secrets held by its characters while slowly trying to unravel the mystery of its plot and its complex characters, while keeping us on edge to see what will transpire next. The plot moves at a brisk pace, but it doesn't feel rushed. The author plants clues along the way to help us solve the mystery and determine if Luna's past has caught up to her or if something entirely different is going on.
The characters were awesome, especially the crew at Shadow Security. Grim always has Rage's back, besties and all that jazz. Danill, the non-working prince as he is referred to, is the problem solver. Luna's friends are the bomb; they make you laugh out loud time and time again.
We welcomed the plot twists with their intriguing characters in a plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat that was layered with mysteries needing to be solved, all the while finding out all the hidden secrets this plot held within it. A thoroughly enjoyable read where you will find yourselves grinning and smiling throughout.
As much as this was an enjoyable read, you have to ask yourself why Luna and Rage ignored their gut feelings and never questioned the odd things happening around them. Why the brush-off? Why not look deeper? Both had a lot to lose. Was it because they were blinded by love and afraid of losing one another?
This series leaves you eager to see what comes next, not just its characters but as a whole, as we are really loving this series up to this point, especially when your partners are a prince and princess and your friends happen to be a King and Queen. This plot was full of surprises you won't see coming.
