Thank you to NetGalley for an e-arc of this book in exchange for my honest review.
Marisol has been taught her whole life how to pull of the perfect heist, but when things go wrong and she finally gets to be a 'normal' teenage girl she doesn't really know how to handle it all.
She adjusts to high school fairly easily, thanks in part to her having done online school, and from just blending into the background for the most part. With Will helping her get caught up in Math, and Jamie helping her find clubs to join to help her make friends. Marisol seems to start enjoying her new life. That is until a family member shows up and she realizes she's maybe being followed by someone.
This causes her to panic and to doubt her new life completely. She realizes that there really isn't a way to get away from the world they've been a part of, and she may have put all of her new friends at risk too.
Overall I did enjoy this book, but I'm also not going to lie I was a little disappointed that this was more girl adjust to normal life and less heist related. Not saying this was a bad thing, just wasn't exactly what I was suspecting. Also how in the world did she not have any idea who Will was? Having said that, I really did like the beginning and the last thirty percent of the book. The middle part while important to show her new life, and how her connection to Will changed things, was also a little boring to me personally. I wish we would have either gotten to see more of her friends at school or her family dynamic because I felt like we didn't really get to understand it until almost the end.
I am interested to see if this gets any companion novels because that ending was the perfect setup for some, and they sound like they would be Amazing!
