really liked it

A refreshingly unique premise that captivated my interest from the very beginning. The initial chapters, where Jack finds herself immersed in a job while being directed by Gabe, were particularly engaging. The author skillfully builds tension and intrigue during this phase, creating a sense of anticipation for what lies ahead.

The turning point occurs when Jack returns home after the job, only to discover the life-altering event of Gabe's murder. The emotions portrayed in this pivotal moment are intense and effectively convey the impact on Jack's life. From here, the story takes a thrilling turn as we follow Jack's desperate attempt to prove her innocence while being on the run.

However, it is worth noting that the pacing of the story slows down at certain points, causing it to drag and become somewhat lengthy. While it could have been trimmed down by a few pages, the perseverance to uncover the truth and clear her name shines through Jack's character, keeping readers invested in her plight.

The ending of the book serves as a redeeming factor, as it brings everything together in a satisfying manner. The epilogue, in particular, offers a glimpse into Jack's future, leaving readers with a sense of fulfillment and happiness for her triumphs.
