Amber Stone Agent Zero: For The Love of Blood by Amina Warsuma is a crime thriller with plenty of romance. When Amber Stone met Ray “Blood” Perkman, she was trying to become a model. However, falling in love with a man whose street name was Blood wasn’t conducive for a good modeling career or her heart. Blood changed her, even though she hoped to change Blood. Falling in love with him was easy, but living with the consequences wasn’t. Things moved quickly when she lost Blood to his vices. A career change as a secret agent brought her face to face with Blood and Amber had to make a decision she never anticipated. Stuck in an impasse, Amber would have to make a tough choice, or else she would fail miserably.
Short, fast-paced, and written wonderfully well, the story was easy to read and enjoy, perfect for readers who like fast fiction. Amina Warsuma packed in a lot while doing justice to her story. She added romance, suspense, action, emotions, and solid characters. The character names were funny in the beginning, but that was before I knew those were street names (and exactly what you expected from street thugs). Amber’s development was fantastic. Amber went from being a pushover to a strong woman who lived with her actions and thought with her mind over her heart. The dialogues were fun, the narrative was interesting, and the overall story was entertaining. I would suggest this novella to anyone who needs a light yet entertaining story to read during their daily commute.
