General Description: Evie Porter is on a job. Her mission - understand Ryan and try to uncover what his secrets are. Mr. Smith will accept nothing less. however, as Evie and Ryan become closer, Evie finds herself questioning Mr. Smith himself. Who will Evie backstab: Ryan or her boss?
All the goods:
- The twists were immaculate.
- The pacing was extremely quick.
- When all the pieces fell together, it was extremely satisfying.
- While Evie is our main character, I really did like the addition of Ryan as our 'MMC'
The loss of a half-star:
- I think the first 2 hours of the audiobook were confusing without the context of the descritpion
Overall, read the description and decide! I feel like if you like mystery/thrillers this is a great read but check out the description first.
