Ally Carter has written another amazing book! It's a cross-over between Gallagher Girls and Heist Society, the very thing everybody has been waiting for! The main characters, though, are not our two favorite kick-butt heroines, but two of our favorite sidekicks. Macey and Hale are no strangers to high society events. Both of them hide behind their masks and nobody ever suspects that they are not the spoiled rich they appear to be. That is, until they meet each other. When the party they're attending is taken hostage, they must race against time to save the guests without compromising their covers.
Ally does an amazing job of infusing humor into serious situation in her books. When I'm looking for a laugh, I pick up one of her books. Double Crossed does not disappoint. I don't know about you, but I love it in the Heist series when they talk about all the different scams they could run. Double Crossed has that, too.
This is an amazing novella for fans of Gallagher Girls and Heist Society. Or even if you're looking for an introduction to either series, this is a great way to jump in!
