Last year, when I read Tragic (the first book in Huss' Rook & Ronin series), I had no clue what I was getting into.Who knew that a romance about a down trodden girl who falls into an erotic modeling career would end up, in the craziest round about ways, to assassins, lies, betrayals, lust, murder...JA Huss was probably one of those kids that read and did puzzles a lot. Ignoring her peers who were far beneath her own level of intellect. Or...maybe she isn't really a human. A cyborg perhaps. Because her brain works like no other.Dirty, Dark, and Deadly is lies within lies. Betrayals inside of set ups. It's twisty and fast and hard to figure out. Everyone's connected but you don't know how. Everyone is a target but you don't know by who.It's crazy good!Outside of the thrilling aspects, is the love story. It's not an easy one, it's hard to trust love when everyone lies at every turn. Harper doesn't know who to trust and James only trusts his need to protect what's his. Harper included.In true genius style, Huss brought in a ray of deadly sunshine from the Ford books...in the form of Sasha. The Assassin Smurf. She was a blip on the radar before but takes a much larger role here. A well deserved larger role. I can't wait to see what Huss has planned for her future. I won't even try to guess, I'd never figure it out.To sum it up...if you love romance, treachery, thrills and some kick *** ninja skills - This is a good series for you!
