Synopsis (Goodreads):
Imogen Taylor: New art classes. New sister?! Maybe a new boyfriend... Still screwing up.

Keeping my witchy abilities secret is harder than you’d think. I only torment the deserving—like my minions at the Desert Freeze. But when a friend asks for a magical favor, what harm is a little mischief…especially if it comes with a side of romance?

It was all supposed to stay in Vegas. Except, of course, I’m being watched. And my nemesis, Mr. Secret Agent Man, has no sense of humor at all.

What he has is a mission for me—though I don’t recall signing up to risk my life. But sinister powers are rising, and I must infiltrate the enemy’s base to discover critical hidden intelligence. Dangerous obstacles and lethal adversaries block my path at every turn.

Sounds like a fun quest, right? But, no, this is now my life. Unless I screw it up…
Thoughts on Amethyst Flame: Hoo-boy. Imogen keeps getting tangled up to her eyebrows in dangerous situations and she's...well, things are complicated and messed up and she barely knows who she can trust when things go south. Everyone seems to be working toward their own endgame and the half-truths and lies of omission flow with disarming ease.

Frankly, there aren't a lot of great options for her. If she does nothing, the technology that's infected her could become a massive threat. If she steps in to try to stop things (as she did), she's putting herself in danger. Unfortunately, those aforementioned half-truths and lies of omission have her questioning a lot of things at the worst possible moments.

As for Imogen, she's gained a fair amount of control over her moths, but there's a lot she still needs to learn. But there's the whole trust thing again. The group of people who might be able to help her most are the ones who nearly killed her last time. It's tangled and complicated and BOY does Imogen have a lot to deal with.

(Might I just say that ending gave me a hard HOLY WHAT NOW moment. THINGS HAPPENED and I'm itching to see how Imogen and crew get out of the newest situation.)
