About the Series: A Plain Jane
What if you had lived your whole life thinking you were normal? No, worse than normal – plain? What would happen if one of the most highly-trained and vicious assassins in the galaxy attacked you one warm summer's night? What would happen if you were thrust into an adventure with the galaxy's greatest heroic heart-throb? What would happen if a mysterious and ancient race appeared with one desire – to kill you? What would you do?
Jane grew up knowing one thing: she's nothing but normal. But then one little run-in with an assassin robot threatens to destroy everything she thought she knew about herself. Soon she finds herself with none other than Lucas Stone, the galaxy's number one pin up and hero. And together the two of them have to find out exactly who Jane is and what's after her before the galaxy is plunged into war.

Very enjoyable read which left me wanting more. The storyline kept moving and never stopped. The questions about Jane are a powerful mystery which the reader wants to solve.
In some ways it is simplistic with a single storyline and two primary characters. There wasn't very much worldbuilding or background, but just enough.
If you want a complex epic multi-thread story, and very detailed scene setting, look elsewhere. But for a fun read, this will do nicely

This book is written from the viewpoint of the two main characters. With the two viewpoints been interlaced. Now I am not usually a fan of this technique but somehow Odette Bell managed to pull it off as I thoroughly enjoyed this book. In fact I have already purchased book 2; which is amazing in its self, given the size of my to-read pile.

Once again I'm behind on my reviews so a bunch of these will look a lot alike! Odette Bell is brilliant and has become a favorite author. I hope she doesn't move out of my price range because of her amazing talent!
The title caught me and well, the author, of course! I'm a bit of a Plain Jane at first! :D Jane is so sssllllooooowwww to catch on and then her Hero! Well, this is a Must Read! Ms. Bell's other species are terrific too. I'd love to travel her Universe!

I'm a huge Science Fiction fan and thought that I would give this book a try as the write up sounded intriguing. I am so thankful I did as it was a wonderfully written story. The characters and the world building were excellent and I can't wait until I get hold of book two to continue the saga.
