Night's Honor (2014) - Plot & Excerpts

This was not one of the better books of this series. First it really dragged. For about the first 150 pages nothing really happened. Finally about page 200 the big confrontation happened. Or it tried to anyway. The climax fizzled like a firework dud. Finally came the romance. It was good. Another dramatic event and the book ends. One villain turns out to be a non-entity and the other escapes for more drama in the next book. Perhaps the most disappointing thing about the book was that the heroine never got to use her "superpower." The author makes a big deal about what a genius hacker Tess is. This claim is why Xavier hires her in the first place. But except for an impressive 10 minute test to prove her skill at the beginning she never even gets near a computer again. It is not only improbable that a computer programer and hacker would/could avoid computers for weeks. It is a waste of a good superpower. Why bring up her fabulous skill if it was irrelevant to the story. I was disappointed she never got to use her neat hacker skills to save the day. Also while the hero's backstory was elaborately told the heroine's was not. All we know is was she was orphaned somehow and grew up, unloved, in abusive foster homes. Trite, predictable with no interesting details thrown in to catch the readers emotions. The hero was likeable, the heroine was likeable but the story was lacking. I can't believe what a complete snooze-fest this book was until about 75%. Tess and Xavier were boring and spent most of the book apart, so I didn't really believe in the connection when they did hook up (which was also much later in the book. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, of course, but the time preceding this was B-O-R-I-N-G). On the other hand once Tess and Xavier did get together I loved Xavier, the hot Spaniard from the middle ages. It was so disappointing not to see more of him with Tess for most of the book.Overall this series is a hit and miss for me - but when it is good, it is fabulous which keeps me reading. The next book is set up with this one so I don't think it can be skipped unfortunately.

I love all of Thea Harrison's books, but this one seemed rushed and was entirely too short.
