Synopsis: Welcome to Illusion Town on the colony world of Harmony—like Las Vegas on Earth, but way more weird.
Living
in this new, alien world doesn’t stop the settlers from trying to
re-create what they’ve left behind. Case in point—weddings are still the
highlight of any social calendar. But it’s the after-party that turns
disastrous for Lucy Bell. Kidnapped and drugged as she leaves the party,
she manages to escape—only to find herself lost in the mysterious,
alien underground maze of glowing green tunnels beneath Illusion Town.
She’s been surviving on determination and cold pizza, scavenged for her
by a special dust bunny, when help finally shows up.
Gabriel
Jones is the Guild Hunter sent to rescue her, but escaping the
underground ruins isn’t the end of her troubles—it’s only the beginning.
With no rational reason for her abduction, and her sole witness gone on
another assignment for the Guild, whispers start circulating that Lucy
made it all up. Soon her life unravels until she has nothing left but
her pride. The last thing she expects is for Gabriel Jones to come back
to town for her.
The Lucy that Gabriel finds is not the same
woman he rescued, the one who looked at him as if he were her hero. This
Lucy is sharp, angry, and more than a little cynical—instead of awe,
she treats him with extreme caution. But a killer is still hunting her,
and there aren’t a lot of options when it comes to heroes. Despite her
wariness, Gabriel is also the one person who believes Lucy—after all, he
was there. He’s determined to help clear her reputation, no matter what
it takes. And as the new Guild Boss, his word is law, even in the
lawlessness of Illusion Town. (Synopsis from Goodreads)
My Thoughts: What a crazy ride. I really enjoyed the premise and setting of this. It was wild and fun. I just really liked the vibe of Illusion Town. This was a book that really took my mind off everything else in the world, and I was just able to sit and enjoy it. It offered me a very entertaining story, with action and romance. It was a very good time.
I liked the couple in this book. They had a lot to deal with, but they were a good match.
I liked all the action this book brought. It did have me turning pages just so I could see what was going to happen next.
This was a very enjoyable read. I hadn't read any of the Harmony novels before, or any other books in this series, but I'm going to have to fix that. I'd recommend giving this one a read.
