After reading Rock Bottom, I knew that I would enjoy another ride with A.J Palladino. This is one heroine that you can’t help but love. She’s a devoted mother, hardcore environmentalist, and a woman who will stand her ground—no matter what is in her way. Brockovich and Lyons have definitely created a character that readers can enjoy for years to come.
The plot is well developed, with twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat, begging for more with the turn of each page. The chaos at the nuclear power plant and A.J. switching sides was a refreshing twist. Keeping Masterson (from Rock Bottom) in the mix added the perfect amount of drama to an already intense situation. Masterson definitely has my vote for most hated character of the year. He is the definition of villain.
Environmental activist A.J. Palladino is taking a walk on the wild side in this exciting sequel to Rock Bottom. A.J. prides herself in being the watchdog for citizens, keeping them safe from the evil corporations that break the rules. In Hot Water, things are turned upside down and A.J. finds herself lending a helping hand to a nuclear power plant owner. There is drama on the home front and chaos at the plant, with A.J. smack dab in the middle of it all. Can she work her magic one more time or has her lucky streak run out?
Overall, I found Hot Water to be a lively addition to the A.J. Palladino series. Brockovich and Lyons have created a thrilling plot with a real-life feel. Hot Water is a fast-paced enjoyable read that I highly recommend to everyone.
