Review: Rogue Pursuit (Shades of Starlight Book 1) by B.L. Dean

About the Book
A smuggler, a spy, a brewing revolution…and a rogue agent who could destroy it all.

Perrin Hightower can fly a run-down freighter through the galaxy’s most dangerous wormholes blindfolded, a handy skill in her shipping business…and her smuggling enterprises.

Special agent Tai Lawson dreams of leading the Ruby Confederation’s spy agency. But when his partner steals a top-secret list of revolutionaries and vanishes, Tai’s accused of helping his friend escape.

When Tai seeks her navigation expertise, Perrin would rather jump out an airlock than help. But the missing person is her ex-boyfriend—a double agent she thought was helping the revolution. Her name’s on that list, and she’ll do anything to keep it secret.

Hiding their true agendas, Tai and Perrin follow the rogue spy’s trail across the galaxy. Each must decide where their allegiance truly lies when they learn the spy carries more than a list of conspirators—he carries information that could shatter the fragile peace in the galaxy.

MY THOUGHTS

This was so much fun and so action-packed! There was never a dull moment. Life has been super stressful lately, so this book turned out to be the perfect distraction and exactly what I needed.

 

I really enjoyed the author's writing style. It's the first time I've read anything by her, and I'm looking forward to more. The world-building was great. I loved all the science, especially the wormholes. They were fascinating! The characters were likable and three-dimensional. Perrin and Tai were so fun together. Their banter was great, and they had me laughing so hard. It was interesting how they were trying to accomplish the same goals but were on opposite sides of the law. I was very curious to see how that would work out.

 

I highly recommend this book to fans of sci-fi. I had a ton of fun reading it and am excited for the next one!
