THEY NEVER WANTED TO BE HEROES
Captain Tess Bailey and Shade Ganavan are still the galaxy's Most Wanted, and with revolution in the wind and the universe on the brink of catastrophic war, the situation couldn't be more desperate. Despite the Dark Watch scouring the known sectors for them, rebel leaders have handed the crew of the Endeavor a delicate and dangerous mission: break into Starbase 12 and free renowned scientist Reena Ahern. She's the only one who stands a chance of tipping the odds in their favor for the first time in decades.
BUT PULLING OFF THE IMPOSSIBLE IS WHAT THEY DO BEST
The clock is ticking. But as their attraction builds and secrets are revealed, Tess and Shade must decide if they trust each other enough to execute this impossible prison break. They could change the course of history, but they'll be risking everything... They'll just have to tackle one crisis at a time.

Being back with Tess and Shade on the Endeavor was amazing and this time the stakes are higher! Tess and Shade need to work on their trust issues now that he has given up everything to become a rebel along with her. The development of their relationship was quite quick in the previous book and it was realistic to see that they didn't have the easy road and had to work out the problems between them. Tess has issues with Shade's past and it doesn't help that he'd betrayed her previously. Shade also needs to adjust to his new life which is more dangerous than before and he has to figure out his place in Tess' life as she already has an established family with her friends and crew members.
On top of everything we've got the problem of the Overseer and a new assignment from the rebels that involves them breaking out prisoners from the most secure place in the galaxy. What's our team gotta do to catch a break eh? No time for that when you have to save the galaxy!
Amanda Bouchet is one of my favorite fantasy romance authors and she's equally great at writing sci fi romance too! We get to see a lot more of the galaxy in this one and new secrets are revealed (I had a feeling about Nate since Nightchaser). I loved the addition of Sanaa and we get to see more of Merrick! They're both kick-ass and I'm totally rooting for them!
Another plus was the fact that both Tess and Shade's chapters were in first pov as I'd found it a little distracting in Nightchaser when the chapters switched between first and third povs.
The action really ramps up in this one and by the end it really peaks! I feel that it might be just too easy if the Overseer is actually dead so I'm guessing that we might be seeing more of him in the next one! I can't wait to see how this trilogy ends and the decisions that Tess and her crew are going to make!
Thanks to Sourcebooks and Netgalley for my ARC! Starbreaker is out now so make sure to grab it or read Nightchaser if you haven't already! It was one of my favorites from 2019!

It was inevitable that one day she would start writing them down. She writes what she loves to read: epic exploits, steamy romance, and characters that make you laugh and cry.
