Macey McHenry—Glamorous society girl or spy-in-training?

W.W. Hale V—Heir to an American dynasty or master thief?

There are two sides to every coin. Whether these two can work together is a tossup.

Born into privilege, Macey and Hale are experts at mingling with the upper class. But even if they’ve never raised an eyebrow at the glitz, neither teenager has ever felt at home with the glamour.

When Macey and Hale meet at a society gala, the party takes a dangerous turn. Suddenly they’re at the center of a hostage situation, and it’s up to them to stop the thugs from becoming hostile. Will Macey’s spy skills and Hale’s con-man ways be enough to outsmart a ruthless gang? Or will they have to seek out the ultimate inside girl to help?

The worlds of Heist Society and the Gallagher Girls collide in Ally Carter’s fast-paced, high-stakes and tantalizing new story. Get a behind the scenes glimpse as Ally delivers an irresistible thriller that is full of her signature style and savvy twists.

My Thoughts:
This was a fun and quick read (novella-60 pages). I loved seeing Ally Carter’s two book series collide in this novella. Hale is my favorite character in the Heist Society series so that was really fun to see more of him. Macey is cool under pressure and –oh yeah– a teenage spy in training! So yeah she’s fun to read in action too.

An entertaining read full of action that got me exited for the release of the newest book in the Heist Society series, Perfect Scoundrel. Double Crossed free on Amazon so go get it now!
