Bold Tricks (The Artists Trilogy #3) by Karina Halle

Bold Tricks (The Artists Trilogy, #3)

From goodreads: With more lives at stake and games in motion, Ellie, Camden and Javier form an uneasy alliance that will take them from the treacherous streets of inner-city Mexico to the wilds of the Honduran jungles in order to find their freedom. But with liberty just on the horizon, the cost might come at their own redemption.

Review:

The Artists Trilogy is one of the best series I have read, it’s twisted, dark, edgy and action packed. It’s riveting! I’m not sure what took me so long to read the final book, Bold Tricks, maybe I was hoping to make it last longer.  Bold Tricks is equally as good as the others in the series and dare I say, quite possibly even better than the rest.

Karina Halle definitely knows how to keep me engaged and totally captivated and her writing is stellar as I knew it would be.  The sizzle factor is turned up a notch which was a pleasant surprise and the action kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time.  So many twists and turns.

 “My real nature, my real self, wanted that person to believe in me, to see the good, ignore the bad, and make me feel like I had a future.”

In this third and final installment of the Artists Trilogy it picks up right where it left off.  Ellie is involved with two men who are crazy about her.  Well, let me clarify…one is absolutely in love with her and the other, the one from crazyeeeeeeeeee town just thinks of her as a possession.  In my opinion, there was never a love triangle because Ellie was just a lost girl who never truly admitted to herself that she was knee-deep in love with Camden, until now.

“Tell me, angel, what is it about that boy that makes you forget who you really are? Is it the tattoos, because you know I have those.  Or is it those horrible glasses of his? You know, I can look like a fucking idiot if I really wanted to.”

Ellie truly evolves in Bold Tricks.  She’s certain of herself, knows what she wants and will do whatever it takes to right her wrongs.   She manages to regain trust and when she does I wanted to jump from the couch and sing!  Maybe just a happy dance instead.

“I don’t want to love you, Ellie, but I do love you. I can’t stop myself. I’ve been trying to since the moment I saw you with him. You broke me, you broke my fucking heart. You broke me into so many pieces that I didn’t think I could find myself again. And I’m so damn scared, I’m scared just like you.”

Can we talk about the car chases for a moment?  Those were EPIC action scenes that I have ever come across because they felt so real!!  Honestly, all the action scenes were heart stopping moments.

There’s not much more that I can say that hasn’t been said before AND I also don’t want to give too much away because I hate spoilers or anything that could allude to a potential spoiler.  If you want a heroine that’s feisty, vulnerable and full of hutzpah…start one-clicking! ;)
