This book is a lot shorter than the first one, it's definitely a transition book.

We reunite with pleasure with this adorable couple: Maggie and Caleb where we left them in the first installment. Caleb and Maggie are hiding in California waiting for the situation in Tennessee to be back to normal. They enjoy their "vacation" with uninvited guests: Kyle and Bish as chaperons.

There is a lot less action than the first one and a bit less tender moments between the couple (well that's not the truth there is a fair amount but I wanted more Caleb!). We learn more about the history of the Aces and a new threat appears. Some big moments of the book were predictable but the story was still enjoyable. I felt so sorry for Bish and Jen but sometimes I did not understand Bish violent reactions towards Caleb (don't bully my boy Bish!)
Maggie was really annoying, I get that she was freaked out about this new world but girl, stop crying every two seconds okay? You have this amazing boyfriend who would do absolutely everything for you so get a grip on yourself!

It was an enjoyable read but I wanted to see more Caleb (yeah I know but I'm completely crazy about this boy) and find out more about this prophecy. Sometimes it felt as if Maggie doesn't really care about all these things and doesn't take her task seriously. I wanted more action from her part and wanted her to take her responsibility. Hopefully I'm going to get what I want in the third book. I am dying to read this one!
