Average rating3.7
The fourth book in the “outstanding” (Romantic Times) Elemental Assassin fantasy series featuring Gin Blaco, who by day is a waitress at a Tennessee BBQ joint, and by night is a tough female assassin. I’d rather face a dozen lethal assassins any night than deal with something as tricky, convoluted, and fragile as my feelings. But here I am. Gin Blanco, the semi-retired assassin known as the Spider. Hovering outside sexy businessman Owen Grayson’s front door like a nervous teenage girl. One thing I like about Owen: he doesn’t shy away from my past—or my present. And right now I have a bull’s-eye on my forehead. Cold-blooded Fire elemental Mab Monroe has hired one of the smartest assassins in the business to trap me. Elektra LaFleur is skilled and efficient, with deadly electrical elemental magic as potent as my own Ice and Stone powers. Which means there’s a fifty-fifty chance one of us won’t survive this battle. I intend to kill LaFleur—or die trying—because Mab wants the assassin to take out my baby sister, Detective Bria Coolidge, too. The only problem is, Bria has no idea I’m her long-lost sibling . . . or that I’m the murderer she’s been chasing through Ashland for weeks. And what Bria doesn’t know just might get us both dead. . . .

In Tangled Threads, the fourth volume of Jennifer Estep???s ELEMENTAL ASSASSIN series, the plot advances satisfactorily. Since you???re reading this review, I???ll assume you???ve read the first three books, Spider???s Bite, Web of Lies, and Venom. I???ll also assume you still like the series if you???re interested in a review of book four.
So, as I said, the plot advances, mostly with Gin???s relationships with both her new boyfriend, Owen Grayson, and her sister Bria Coolidge, the new top cop in town who doesn???t realize that Gin is her sister or that she???s Ashland???s vigilante assassin with stone and ice magic. Of course, fans of the series can???t wait to find out how Bria will react when she eventually discovers the truth. To avoid spoilers, I won???t tell you ...

Estep has done it again, I just couldn't put this book down! I literally sat in the parking lot of my work because I had one chapter to read and could not go a moment more without finishing it! One of those books where you get a giddy feeling and a smile on your face when it's final over. Gin never ceases to amaze me with her quick thinking and kick ass attitude :) can't wait for the next one!
So much repetition. I know that writers want to allow new readers to jump into a series at any point, but as someone reading the whole series, reading recaps of every step of the book is a bit tedious. I also think it could be done more naturally?
Also, why is it she can't ever do anything without getting hurt? I'd like to see how amazing she can be besides from the one time in the first book...
I like the world, I like the concept, my interest is just slowly waning because I keep re-reading the same things (sometimes multiple times in the same book... )
