SUMMARY: Izzy and Jules were best friends until Izzy's family abruptly left Batuu when she was six. But now she's back, and Jules, the boy who never left, is unsure what to make of her. While on the run from vengeful smugglers and an angry pirate, Jules and Izzy will come to terms with who they are, and what they mean to each other.

REVIEW: In my opinion, there will never be enough stories for the Star Wars universe. George Lucas created his own universe where anything can happen and then there are some repeat stories. While I enjoyed this story, most of the time I would read a paragraph and think of Han Solo and Princess Leia. The main character Izzy reminded me a lot of Jyn Erso from Rogue One. I feel that there was way more potential and a bigger and better story out there. I also felt very bad for Izzy because she was being manipulated and screwed over by her supposed boyfriend Damar and the crew that she was working for. 

I give this a 4 stars regardless because I love Star Wars and this just made me want to read more of the novelizations and re-watch the movies for the billionth time.
