I was so excited to finally be picking up Maddox's story. I was very intrigued with is character while reading Facade. He's just as sexy and awesome as I thougth he would be.The female lead, Bee, is super bad ass. I loved her from the very first second. She's got a lot going on and I immediately sympothised with her over it. Being Kidnapped at a young age, then found and thrown back into her perfect family, it's so hard for her. She struggles because she can't be that same girl she was before the kidnapping, so who can she be? I totally got her.My favorite thing about Masquerade is that Bee is a tatoo artist and she's taking Maddox under her wing to teach him. I love tattoos. I have one myself, and my husband has a sleeve done. Tatoos are so sexy and I really enjoyed reading the parts where they focused on the art work. There is a particular tattoo that I wouldn't mind getting myself.My only complaint about this book is the whining. Now hear me out, they both have issues. That's a known fact going into the book. Especially Maddox, as you know from the previous story. But they dwell on it so much. I get that if they didn't, there wouldn't be much of a story, but a little less feeling sorry for themselves would have been nice. Maybe it's because they were such hardcore characters, that all the mushy sadness was over kill? Idk.Overall, this was another great addition to the Games series. I wonder if there will be more, perhaps I'll tweet the author and ask. :-) Oh, and in my NetGalley there are a bunch of deleted scenes at the end. I'm not sure if that will be in the final edition, but if it is, that's a great touch. I wasn't quite ready to say goodbye to them, so I loved having a little more to read when all was said and done.
