Bold Tricks was the most action packed of the series. This book starts out where Shooting Stars left us. Ellie is stuck in a jeep sandwiched between Javier and Camden. They are in Mexico trying to escape one of the biggest Mexican cartel's that wants their heads on a platter. Ellie wants to go after the head of the cartel to save Gus and her mom. Javier wants to kill the leader of the cartel so he can take over. And Camden just wants to help Ellie get to safety.I love how Karina writes her characters. They are gritty and real. They have flaws and are not your every day hero's. But she makes them hero's. You find yourself rooting for Ellie who is a grifter. She steals and lies to get what she wants from people. Javier traffics drugs out of Mexico and is running a Mexican mob. And people are able to find the good in him and want him to have his happily every after. How amazing of a writer is Karina???And then there is Camden. He spent his childhood being made fun of by the other kids. He was kicked around by his dad. And he keeps getting screwed over as an adult too. His ex wife throws him under the bus repeatedly. He is prohibited from seeing or even knowing his son. And he picks himself up time and time again. Camden's got heart.This series wrapped up beautifully.  Now I'm gonna sit back and wait for someone to realize what a great movie this would make.  Hear that Hollywood???
