Plot could have been better

Narration was just as good in this book as the previous one. Good accents. Good female voices.

There were two elements to the story: 1) the relationship development between Wes and Sebastian, and 2) the nefarious plot that needed to be thwarted. The nefarious plot was boring and frustrating. The previous book was based around a murder mystery, which was interesting, but this was a missing persons case, which was less so. Also, why must the characters always get captured before they win? Is this a James Bond movie?
Pro-tip: If a drink tastes off, then DON’T drink it! Especially if you think the situation may be a setup. *face palm*
If not for the fascinating development of the main characters via the deepening of their relationship, I would have been totally bored by halfway through.
The characters are witty and interesting with lots of good dialogue, but I was looking forward to more interactions with Ace, Rory, Jade, and Zhang than this book delivered. Hopefully, we get more of them (with a return of Gwen and Ellis) in the next book.
