Hey!

I’ve recently reread the Masterminds trilogy, and remembered that one of my favorite parts was the dynamic between Amber and Malik. Since I’m assuming that it is implied that they’re in a relationship by the end (I’m not quite done reading the third book yet), I’m just wondering if you have any insight on what their relationship dynamic would be once they’re dating.
To be more specific, I’m wondering about what roles they take on in the relationship, if it’s like a “on and off” sort of thing, or a long-term stable one, who gets more jealous, things like that. Personally, I think their relationship would be slightly toxic (in a fun way) while Tori and Eli’s relationship would be very sweet and stable.

Thanks! Audrey

Hi,Audrey,

You got it right. At least, I think so. Eli and Tori will grow old together in peace and tranquility. Amber and Malik will be a wonderful couple too, but more volatile -- and probably more exciting.

An interesting point no one has mentioned so far on this topic is that there won't be any childen unless they adopt. Clones are not able to reproduce.

Thanks for posting. I'm happy to see thatMASTERMINDS is having such a long life among my readers.
