Just a couple pieces, so that I wasn’t left scratching my head. In the first half of the book, she almost lost me. It was all over the place. Not much of it made sense. The characters were decent enough, but didn’t really let you in enough to get invested in any of them. Overall, it was a good book. Since I know the characters now, I am still not really invested but I would read the next one just for curiosity to see what happens. The story itself is good.

Sophie was abandoned at birth, abused and neglected. Cole Hunter lost his family in a fire. They meet in a foster home and Cole quickly becomes Sophies brother, protector and partner in crime. Years later when Cole is murder Sophie will risk everything to find out who killed him and why. The story is told from Cole in the past and Sophie in the present and had me racing through the book to find out who did it. Every character was well written and Sophie is so complicated and broken yet comes across as so real. Loretta has this way of weaving a story that draws you in and makes you care for the people she writes about. I have read all of her books and I think this one is the best of the best so far, but I'm sure when the Bulletproof Boy comes out it will be even better. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

*Blog Tour April 27th, 2018 ~ The Fireproof Girl by Loretta Lost*
The Fireproof Girl is the story of Sophie Shield and Cole Hunter. Sophie, is a CIA agent and an excellent code breaker, who lives in Washington DC with her boyfriend Zachary. One day she reads in the newspaper that, Cole, another homeless child, adopted by same foster parents as hers, who she has not met in years, is dead. She decides go back to California where, Cole lived to find out who his murderer is. Through Sophie’s perspective we get to see her on a journey of searching for clues surrounding Cole’s death and who shot him. I really liked the dual perspectives between Sophie and Cole. Sophie’s side of the story was told in present day (2016) while Cole’s side dealt with their past (2003) and how it’s has contributed to their present. Both were broken children who grew up to be broken adults. In the beginning you know that Sophie has a problem with commitment and you slowly find out why. I felt the author did a pretty good job of weaving the backstory for both Sophie/Scarlett and Cole.
The story was compelling, interesting, disturbing, intense and I loved it. The plot was interesting it was full of twists. You don’t really know what is going on. The story will keep you guessing. It’s really fun to follow Sophie through the past and present with unexpected events unfolding.
If you like mystery, suspense and a bit of romance. This is the book for you. I don’t usually read mystery type books, but I’m can’t wait to get my hands on the rest of the series. I highly recommend it
