Akira Hamada, a
beautiful Japanese geisha, failed at killing Kaito Mitsui two years ago—the
same yakuza gang leader who destroyed her lover and forced her to become an
assassin. Now, with his sister’s murderer traveling to the Caribbean on a
cruise ship, Akira has ten days at sea to identify her target and complete her
assignment as her penance, or face her own death.
My Thoughts…
This is my
first Threads series book and I wasn’t sure what I was going to be
reading. The drama of who killed
Akira’s sister was interesting but I was more invested in the romance. How could a relationship that started as a
lie work? Would it work? I had to keep reading to find out.
I loved the
characters. Akira was intriguing. Her skills as an assassin made her
dangerous, thrilling, and an unknown. I
wasn’t always sure if she was being truthful about her intentions and found
many times that I doubted that she even knew what she was hoping to happen. Devon was great. There were times I thought he was a tad
naïve. He fell for Akira quickly and
seemed to just believe everything she told him. His aunt and uncle were hilarious. I laughed at Paul’s head in the sand
attitude. He seemed to accept
everything at face value and not want to make waves. Sara was crazy. There is no other way around it. From the very beginning she was off her
rocker and full of drama.
There were
times I felt the story was a little slow with a little too much weird
conversation between characters but just as that thought came along the story
seemed to pick up and I was flipping pages unable to put the book down. I’d recommend picking up your own copy and
enjoying the cruise with Akira, Devon, and the rest of the gang.
