Shooting Scars does not miss a beat starting up where Sins & Needles leaves off.  I went into this team Javier because I had just read On Every Street and had my heart stomped on by Javier's actions and I was hoping beyond hope that he would redeem himself. Ironically this placed me in Ellie's mindset almost.  While Ellie leaves Camden she believes he is being given a second chance at having his family back and doesn't believe he will find her again.  Though she is now repulsed by Javier there is a part of her that deep down wants to believe she can be his saving grace, the one thing that makes him want to be better.Ms. Halle gives us this story in alternating POV between Ellie and Camden, which I liked because I got to know what was happening with Camden while apart from Ellie and also feel his emotions too.This book was a rollercoaster ride of emotions and I felt my heart breaking just a little more with each new chapter.  I also changed from team Javier to team Camden the further into the story I progressed.  Camden, my tattooed, muscled nerd with rage issues and a loyal side that made you love him regardless of the direction his character was evolving.Ms. Halle is a master storyteller that has woven a web of love, deceit, and revenge that kept me glued to my kindle and wishing that there were more pages to turn.If you haven't read Sins & Needles then pick it up and start reading this amazing series that will keep you on edge.
