I enjoyed this second book in the Endeavor series. Admittedly I had to do a quick review of the end of book one to recall how things had wrapped up but if you're looking for a solid sci-fi with some romance, consider picking this series up.

The story took me on quite a ride as there is plenty of action and with the introduction of new characters, we get to learn more about what's at stake and what Tess is willing to do to help others. I thought Bouchet did a fantastic job of keeping me engaged in the story by including a number of twists and turns.

As Tess and Shade's relationship is pretty new, they continue to learn more about each other and while their connection is strong, they are still learning to trust each other and sometimes the past comes back to haunt them. Similar to the first book, the secondary characters were well developed and it felt like they were much more involved in the story, which I loved.

I definitely recommend checking out this series if you haven't yet. It has strong characters, an interesting story, and if you know me, you know I like romance too...which this one has.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the early copy in exchange for an honest review.
