Ooh, love futuristic stories that have a Romeo and Juliet feel to them! Aria Rose wakes up and finds she's engaged to marry Thomas, son of the rival Foster family. No matter how much she tries to believe she 'loves' him, everything feels wrong. Then she stumbles into Hunter and something awakes inside of her. Even though she knows it's wrong, she continues to seek Hunter out. Even if it destroys her.

There are lots of twists and turns in this dystopian tale. I was hooked from the very beginning and couldn't put this part X-men, part futuristic Romeo and Juliet tale down. The feuding families in this case try to 'cover' up a truth and Aria continues to try to find out what really happened to her memories.

There's a hot new romance between Hunter and Aria. At first he comes off as arrogant but later readers find out how much he's hiding too. What Aria's father does to her is kind of like the Mafia meets Total Recall. And how the futuristic NYC is being run is horrific and chilling. There's lots of deception around Aria and deadly secrets.

A great new series!
Good Points
1. Great twist on the Romeo/Juliet romance
