Hero High: Heartbreak Rebellion (Hero High Collections Book 2) by Mina Chara – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Heartbreak Rebellion by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This Boxset of three books continues on from ‘Hero High, Collections Book 1, Figure In The Flames’ and we are back in the world of Icon City and with out feisty heroine Friday Fitzsimmons. The prologue at the beginning gives a recap of what happened to the world and how Icon City came about, which is also useful for new readers to the series. In Icon City power and fame are everything above integrity which Friday finds difficult. Friday must decide whether to go for the celebrity stardom which is within her grasp or follow her conscious as crime and corruption spreads throughout Icon City. The Hero Channel control every aspect of Friday’s life from the clothes she wears to who she will date, but when she uncovers the secret behind Hero TV and it’s connection to the Icon City jail she must choose which path to take. Torn between her feelings for the villainous Doctor Dangerous and Luke, a new team member Friday must use her supernatural abilities to save the school she loves and stop the Heartbreak Rebellion.
I have enjoyed this fast paced romantic/urban fantasy series so far and was not disappointed by this collection of three books. I liked being able to ‘binge read’ them one after the other which made me feel completely immersed in Icon City. I love the main character’s, both the hero’s/heroines and the villains as they all add to the story. I particularly like Friday, who really brings the whole series together and I find myself rooting for her throughout each book. The plot has plenty of action in it which had me gripped from beginning to end and I enjoyed being back with Friday in Icon City. The City really comes alive thanks to the authors wonderful world building. Escapism in a book, perfect for YA and adults alike.
