Review #171: Hyde- Laura DeLuca


Summary: Rebecca Hope has looked death in the face twice and lived to tell her tale.

She and the love of her life, Justyn Patko, land a summer internship at a local dinner theater, performing the musical Hyde. While they are excited about their first paid acting gig, they soon find themselves surrounded by more experienced cast mates, jealous of their success. As if the tension isn’t bad enough, they soon discover that the business might be a front for something much more sinister.

When Justyn is accused of a crime that she knows he would never commit, Rebecca must decide if she wants to follow her head or her heart. While trying to prove his innocence, she makes a shocking discovery of her own.

Everyone has something to conceal in the grand finale of the Dark Musicals Trilogy. Rebecca has to look beyond the façade to discover the true Hyde or face her final curtain call.
Title: Hyde
Author: Laura DeLuca
Rating: 5/5
Review: I received this book free from the author in exchange for an honest review.
This is the third book in the Dark Musicals trilogy by Laura DeLuca. I must say that this is my favourite book of the three. I think the biggest reason why was because I couldn't figure out who the bad guy was and if had no idea until their identity was revealed. Also the romance in this instalment was top notch. I even "awed" out loud a few times, it was so cute. I'm really sad to see these series come to an end because I am really invested in the story and the characters.
I loved watching Justyn and Rebecca grow over the course of the series. Despite their terrible luck they never gave up once. You could really feel how much they love each other by their willingness to sacrifice themselves for each other.. I did find Becca to be a tad bit whiny in this book, but that could have been her condition. The villain was way more mysterious this time around. I was very surprised to find out who it was and they were pretty far down on my suspect list.
The Dark Musicals is an awesome mystery/ suspense series. The story and characters really grow on you and again I'm very sad for it to come to an end. I would recommend this book and series to mystery lovers and those looking for a thrill.
