Complicity- to be involved with others in illegal activity or wrongdoing.
After sacrificing herself for Harry's freedom, Aven Brooks is no longer the innocent photographer with big dreams and a bigger heart. Now under the notorious control of Malikai, she becomes brainwashed into being the perfect asset for his organized crime.
Harry, a fugitive, spends his days trying to find his angel and reap her out the path he once walked. When that stroke of luck comes his way, he smacks into the harsh reality to what she's actually become.
Update 2023 : The story is still going but I am so sorry to say I have lost interest.. like I get that the author has a life and can’t always be writhing, but the updates are so spread, I don’t have the en energy to wait anymore. When there is a new chapter, I do read it, but I am not invested in the story and I can’t wait for the book to end.. It’s crazy to say that because I was OBSESSED with Duplicity like it gave me life back in 2022 but now .. it’s just meh.. sorry Juliez love you girl ♥️ ( I will keep the 5/5 starts note because that’s how I felt when I first started it) Note to self : don’t start a fanfic if all the chapters are not realised.
I know Aven is in there. I don't care if now she's """Mariana""". I 👏🏼 KNOW 👏🏼 SHE'S 👏🏼 IN 👏🏼 THERE👏🏼 She completely separated her two personalities because she wanted to protect herself, Harry and the guys from pain and death, but we still can see old Aven in the deep of Mariana's face: the cherry coke, the fact she didn't choose yellow dress nor nails, the Marlboro Reds, the fact she's still hiding Duplicity's in town from Malikai. She cares about 'em, she LOVES them AND 👏🏼 THAT'S 👏🏼 A 👏🏼 FACT 👏🏼
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
well this technically is still unfinished but i’m counting it as i’ve finished it because i’m completely caught up. uhm i need a new chapter??? it’s been almost a month since the last update…
The book is not done yet but I’m still going to give it infinity stars because no book can ever make me feel like this one. I need more chapters because I’m going insane ❤️🩹
Aunque el libro no esté terminado, es una joyita totalmente. Tiene demasiado contenido y es tan increíble que cada actualización terminó gritando más, los amo
I’m aware that this book is still ongoing, so maybe I’ll update this review whenever new chapters are uploaded. Currently, I’ve finished the book at chapter 43. I’d like to start with saying that my expectations for this book were laying high as people were saying that this book was worse emotionally, which it was not. After Duplicity, I was expecting something that would wreck my heart even worse than the prequel did (which is nearly impossible fyi). I did not shed a tear ONCE while reading this (although chapter 43 got me close) and was slightly disappointed in the fact that it failed to. Still, it was an great follow-up and there were lots of action scenes which made it more intriguing to read on. I could be wrong, but it felt like some timelines didn’t correspond nor overlap with what was earlier mentioned. I do have to be honest, somewhere in the back of my head I knew that nothing could beat Duplicity, but I still believe some improvements could be made. All with all, this series is by far my favorite piece of literature I’ve read.
so this is unfinished but i’m counting it as finished as i’m all caught up. 3 stars because i don’t know the ending yet.
i enjoyed this. unfortunately i feel like we could have done without a lot of these chapters. the same things & conversations kept happening over & over again. i understand character development doesn’t happen overnight but, 55 chapters. it took 55 chapters to see any kind of movement. & even then, it was one singular thing that brought the character change. i just feel like we could be so much farther progressed to the ending of this story.
i know authors have lives but, it’s been years since this story started. i only just started the series a month or so ago. it came out in 2020. i feel like in almost 5 years the second edition would be completed. no shade to Julez at all but as a consumer & reader, that’s hard to stay engrossed in.
this could very easily be a 4 or 5 star read depending on the ending.
it’s been a couple of days since I finished this book and just, wow. I’ve been thinking about this entire thing every hour since I finished it and I’m already rereading duplicity chapters. Jules so fking talented I can’t even wrap my head around the fact she started all of this at the age of 18. I love this universe so much it pains me I don’t own a physical copy. The things I would be willing to do to read this again for the first time. I need jules to stand on business and finish this book and end my torture
This book wrecked me... in a good and bad way. It's been hard to see the changes in each of them and the things they have gone through since Duplicity. I have really loved the book though! The author is great at character development and that has been so fun to see in this setting of the book.
This shit has me in a goddamn chokehold. It’s not even finished yet but I’m so happy with how it’s progressed. Obsessed w these characters and it’s crazy that they’re not real?? Books are always like little movies in my mind but this shit has me actually seeing it it’s crazy. Love it 10/10
