I was very curious about this book from the first mention of it. I was over the moon to get Claire's story. I loved her in Breaking Away which was Phillip and Reese's story. I knew she had to be a kick butt strong person but underneath was still the insecurity from growing up with her mom. I get Claire being secretive about some of her life because of her prior experiences but was still frustrated that she felt she couldn't trust Jude. I did enjoy getting to see her relationship with Phillip and Reese was even stronger. I love how they can't imagine a life without her and their unconditional love for her.
I knew Jude Sinclair was going to rock Claire's world and he did not disappoint. I was a little judgemental about his complete and total change from the womanizer on campus to Claire being his whole world but I shouldn't have been. Claire is more than worth the effort Jude put forth to get her and keep her with him. I also loved how close Jude was with his family and how they took right to Claire.
I was unsure about the shift from the Assasins's series to the Bellvue Bullies but I am convinced this was a great story and I can't wait to see another one. I give this one five stars. I love Toni Aleo's books and would recommend this one to all my friends.
