Book Blurb
When eighteen-year-old teleporter Ember Pierce wakes up in a Los Angeles hospital, she remembers only the basics: she’s been trained by the government as a spy, she’s sent on dangerous missions, and her last assignment—the one that landed her in the hospital—was a setup.
Caden Hawthorne has spent the past ten months of his life grieving Ember’s death. So when she shows up in his room like an apparition, he can’t believe his eyes. But this Ember is different. Her hair is longer, her skin is paler, her gaze is haunted. She tells him what he’s already begun to suspect: someone he trusted betrayed her.
Now, uncertain who is friend and who is foe, Ember and Caden face the toughest mission of their lives—to stay together and survive, as they run from danger toward an unknown future.

Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala
Of course Richards suspects they are planning an escape and decides to thwart their plans. He takes them out of rotation and sends them to Montana. Caden and Ember have to start planning all over again. However this time they have to put some trust into places they weren’t expecting in order to be successful. But as you know not all plans go perfectly.
I couldn’t wait to read this second book. The first, The Vanishing Girl, was awesome and I couldn’t put it down. In this book I kept wanting to smack Ember. She keeps trying to do everything herself instead of trust Caden to help her. It drove me completely crazy. It kept causes more issues in the long run. Her stubbornness was going to get her killed or Caden, who would try to save her. I realize that her character is completely messed up in this book but come on.
This was definitely an edge of your seat kind of story. You didn’t want them to get caught. The reader wants them to succeed. You don’t know who they can trust. I would have to read a bit and then take a break. It was almost too much at one time suspense-wise. Drove me insane. Their plans changed continuously and they had to stay under the radar but steal what they needed. It was crazy and a very wild ride. I give it a 4 out of 5.
