Hi Cara,
After finishing Dying for a living I wanted to listen to Dying by the Hour to see what trouble Jesse would get up to next.
Jesse Sullivan and Ally Gallagher are famous thanks to their recent kidnapping and brush with death. They have scars, but they’re breathing, and that’s more than the other victims can say.
Yet while they try to settle back into their routine, saving lives through Jesse’s rare ability, neither can quite shake the feeling that the danger hasn’t truly passed. Then another death replacement agent goes missing, and Jesse may be the only one who can find her.
But is the agent really another victim? Or is she the trap that will get them killed?
Dying by the Hour picks up about a year after Dying for a Living. Life has been quiet (relatively speaking) for Jesse and Ally. But now Caldwell is back and the drama goes up a notch.
The book is told in Jesse and Ally POV. This kept the plot moving and interesting as for the majority of the book they were dealing with there own drama. I was a little frustrated with the amount of time that was focused on Ally and Jesse not being together but having feeling for each other. As well as Ally treating Jesse with Kid gloves regarding the dangers around her.
I am fascinated with the way Jesse and people like Jesse power evolve and where the power comes from. As well what Caldwell plans are, and how it connects to Jesse.
I wish we had found out more about Caldwell plan. How he became so powerful in the Church and with his abilities. I felt that Dying for the hour gave me more questions than answers.
Maybe in the future, I will return to Jesse story but at the moment I am in no rush to return.
My rating for Dying by the hour is 3 out of 5.
