Maria Angie Mendoza's Reviews > The Mastermind

Smart, insightful and brimming with all the feels, this author proves once again that she’s a masterful wordsmith!
This read was such a satisfying treat for the senses I couldn’t put it down!
I’ve been a huge fan of the Rivers Wild series, so I was super excited to read this new installment and I can easily say it surpassed my expectations!

While this book can be read and enjoyed as a standalone, in my opinion, reading the prior installments offers insight into the history and family dynamics. If for no other reason, the prior books in this series are just amazing stories that are simply must reads.
The “mastermind” of this story takes us on a seductive, intense and suspenseful journey full of passion and intrigue. Things are not what they appear in this insta-attraction romance!
Brimming with all the feels, Omar and Juliana’s story was unique with plot twists I never saw coming. Omar was one of those characters that you can’t help fall in love with. His connection to Juliana was sexy, emotional and full of unexpected surprises!

Oh but Juliana has deep dark secrets…

You must read and find out!

This is one of those reads that’s more than a romance, it’s about love, second chances and new discovery. Now the only issue for me was that given Jules’s secret, the ending was too rushed. However it didn’t take away from enjoying this read.
I hope we get more!
4.5 stars!
