⋆ˊˎ “a very risky gamble.”ATE. THIS. UP. and the plot twist in the end—OH MY GOD. it's the reason i'm so excited for book 2!! i know that i will thoroughly enjoy this entire series, so, i'm really excited for that!!! i also loved how fast-paced this was! that's always great in books for me. and OH MY GOD some of the quotes in this were so good! JAMESON/AVERY FOR LIFE THOUGH. Grayson and her were cute too.
⋆ˊˎ “i've seen the way jameson looks at you.”the mystery, the puzzles & the romance were all amazing! the mystery had me hooked, the puzzles had me continuously guessing, and the romance was SPECTACULAR! i'm team Jameson/Avery and he's my favourite, but, nonetheless, i loved all four hawthorne brothers. nash is the most handsome cowboy ever, grayson is really hot plus i'm so down bad for blonde guys, jameson ... he's just the excellent, no words for him; he's super handsome and everything and he also gives me slight cardan vibes and, lastly, xander is quirky and has great humour.
⋆ˊˎ “jameson winchester hawthorne is hungry. ”the negative things about this book were that there were a few characters i didn't like. i didn't really have any problems with this book other than that except for the fact that i'm slightly disappointed i couldn't rate this 5 stars as i really hoped for that, but 4.75 is close enough!
⋆ˊˎ “you're not a player, kid—you're the glass ballerina or the knife.”the ending
