Redemption (Daughters of the People #6.5)

Summary:

India Furia has always walked a hard road. As a member of the subversive Eternal Order, her top priority is to stop the Prophecy of Light from being fulfilled at any cost, including alienating her family and the only man she’s ever loved…or assassinating the People’s beloved Oracle.

Hiro Okada has been protecting India from the People’s wrath since she snuck into his apartment and tried to lure him to the dark side. At work, he’s on the path of a traitor, but at home, he walks a thin line between trusting India and trusting his heart.

But the People are on a collision course with destiny, and fate may have other plans for India. Can Hiro learn to trust her mercurial nature before she breaks his heart? Or are they trapped in the roles they’ve chosen to play, just when a larger danger threatens to tear them apart? (Summary and cover courtesy of goodreads.com)

Review:

It’s no secret that the “Daughters of the People” series is one of my favorite romance series and it was great to see Varna’s next installment.  India is one of my best-loved characters in the series because she’s so independent and truly has some issues in the family, but is tentatively trying to remedy some of them.  Hiro is also a great character that stands out among the guys.  It’s even better that Hiro bonds with India over monster movies and junk food because I have to say I can relate more to that than some of the other books in the series that involve a lot of martial arts or scientific investigation!

I was so against how Hiro managed things at the beginning of this book and if I were India I’d go nuts as well.  Their recovery and development of a hesitant level of trust is complicated and complex as ever.  I’m quite keen to see how things finally sort themselves out in the end of this series and I believe things are wrapping up soon!

Warning: Contains repeated sexual content and violence.

Rating: 5 stars!

Who should read it? Fans of the series, but there will be too many spoilers if you haven’t started at the beginning!
