2014: LOVE THIS! LOVE ALLY CARTER! If the Heist Society series and Gallagher Girls series had a baby, this would be it! Fangirling so much, especially when: Macey said about Kat: Someday I've got to introduce her to Cammie Abby giving Kat the card for the Gallagher Academy Found out about this really late but at least I found it!! Kinda wished there was more but thank you Ally Carter! 2020: oooo still waiting for Cammie and Kat to meet!

Can we all just take a minute to appreciate and FREAK OUT ABOUT HOW INCREDIBLE THIS SHORT BOOK/STORY WAS!!?!?!?!? Holy--excuse my language-- shit! Out of all books in this Gallagher Girls series, this was by far the best book yet! i mean sure, it only contains Macey and Abby but still! I am someone who, did indeed, read Heist Society and PHEWWW did i lovvveeeee Hale.. so you can understand my excitement towards Macey and Hale in this book! In this book, I sorta hated the face that Hale was with Kat and Macey with Preston because I wanted Hale and Macey to get together in this one! and yes I know that it would mess everything up in future books but it would've been nice. Ally Carter, you are a genius! this was probably the best idea you could've done ever! 5 FREAKNIG AMAZING stars!!!

This was just to short for me. Ally Carter has got to be one of my favourite writers out there and I adore both of her series. When I heard that she had written a crossover novel between the two from Macy's and Hale's point of view something inside me kind of exploded. Somehow Ally Carter managed to make me feel more in 60 pages than entire books have made me feel. It was all just so amazing. Hale and Macy have to be two of the best characters in the world. Their banter was witty and made me smile so much. And those fleeting moments we got to see between Hale and Kat, just me order Perfect Scoundrels. I can't take how perfect they are for each other! In the future Ally Carter better be writing more crossovers (maybe even a spin-off series?) because I need some more of this perfect in my life.

I'm a big fan of the 'Gallagher Girls' series but after reading this, I really need to check out Carter's 'Heist Society' series very soon! My only complaint was that it was way too short...I needed more!
