Excerpt

I rush back up the dark stairwell, shoving the key into the doorknob. It takes a minute for the lock to click and I push myself inside the apartment, securing every lock and deadbolt. I can’t stay here in Hutchinson, Kansas any longer. Pulling my phone from my purse, I text Weston.
Tatiana is here. It’s not safe for me.

I grab the few belongings that have any value to me, sentimental or otherwise, and shove it into my shoulder bag, including the stolen silver necklace. It has value and if I’m forced on the run, I’ll need money to survive.

I know.

What did Weston mean he knew Tatiana is at the bar? Had he seen her? Is he there?

What do you mean, you know? I type into the phone. If he saw her, why didn’t he warn me? I can’t go down out the front door and it’s only a matter of time until she finds me just a few feet away. I grow restless waiting for an answer.

The phone buzzes and displays an incoming call from Weston. "Wes, tell me you’re here." The only thing to do is hop in his car and drive into the night, far from Kansas.

A female’s voice bubbles with laughter. "Oh he’s coming darling, but you should know he won’t get here in time. Amazing how easy it is to clone a phone number and steal his service. The advancements Stem Tech has made is encouraging."

BOOK REVIEW4 StarsMadeline is a likable young heroine who sometimes seems impetuous but has a compassionate nature underneath an often sardonic personality. I often felt like smacking her upside the head when her impulsive decisions seemed to lack any measurable foresight. I am happy though that she was able to get the assistance of some influential people that finally culminated in a very satisfactory ending. 
Madeline manages to unveil a deep-rooted conspiracy as she discovers her own strange origins. 
This book is a fun science fiction read that keeps the reader in suspense as each new twist gets unwound, and has plenty of action along with a bit of flirty teenage romance.
This book was given to me in exchange for my honest review.
