Review: Zero Hour (Gypsy Brothers #8) by Lili St. Germain ~ New Release

*****5 Stars*****
 
 
I don't even know where to start. Sometimes when a book is so good, I struggle to find the right words and I really want to find the right words to do this book justice.
After reading One Love, I always thought there was more to Jase and Juliette's story. I also know we had a glimpse of what was happening to the couple in Hells Kitchen, Lili's collaboration with Callie Hart.
Each chapter is dedicated to either Juliette, Jase or Elliot. The trio are on the run from the remaining Gypsy Brothers and the Il Sangue Cartel. Who can they trust? The DEA? Will they ever be free from the violence and continuous running? All these questions seem to have been answered, but I have learnt to expect the unexpected from Lili, so maybe there is more to come, maybe not.
Having read this series in its entirety I have an overwhelming sense of unease each and every time, you just never quite know what is around the corner and I mean that in the best possible sense. I love the fact that I squirm at certain parts, I love the parts that made me unsure whether I wanted to turn away or carry on reading. And having read quite a few dark reads now, I have become immune to certain things, but not with The Gypsy Brothers series. Talk about shocking the unshockable.
This penultimate book is truly brilliant that is all there is left to say and Lili does tie up all those loose ends, so why do I get the feeling this is not the last time we'll be seeing Julz and Jase, or is that just my wishful thinking? Here's hoping!

They say a human being needs few things to exist.

A purpose,

Hope for the future,

But most of all...

Love.

Juliette Portland had all of those things. Her purpose was simple: Seduce. Deceive. Kill. Avenge. Once Dornan Ross and his sons were dead, her future was supposed to be clear. Her life was finally going to begin. And love... Against all the odds, she had the love of a boy she never thought she'd see again.

Everything should have gone according to plan. Everything should have been easy.

Of course, life has a way of f*****g with even the most meticulous of plans, and calling in owed debts can have the most severe consequences. Thanks to Juliette's diabolical retribution, the Il Sangue Cartel has lost it’s Kingpin, but not for long. There’s always someone in the wings, ready to step onstage and seize power. The Gypsy Brothers Motorcycle Club might be reeling from the deaths of their President and his six patch-wearing sons, but they’ve come back swinging.

Two deadly enemies, hundreds of bloodthirsty members, both sides eager to punish those that would try to topple them.

Two survivors, a man and a woman, forced to flee in the night.

For Juliette, vengeance is a hollow victory.

It never, ever ends.

The flames of incomplete vengeance are licking at her heels, and it’s only a matter of time before the Il Sangue cartel and the Gypsy Brothers catch her in their grip and crush her.

Unless she crushes them first.
