    Sophie Jordan grew up on a pecan farm in the Texas hill country, where she wove fantasies of dragons, warriors, and princesses. A former high school English teacher, she's also the New York Times bestselling author of Avon historical romances and the Firelight series. She now lives in Houston with her family. When she's not writing, she spends her time overloading on caffeine (lattes and Diet cherry Coke preferred), talking plotlines with anyone who will listen (including her kids), and cramming her DVR with true-crime and reality-TV shows..

    Unleashed, the romantic, high-stakes sequel to New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan's Uninvited, is perfect for fans of James Patterson's Confessions of a Murder Suspect.

    Davy has spent the last few months trying to come to terms with the fact that she tested positive for the kill gene HTS (also known as Homicidal Tendency Syndrome). She swore she would not let it change her, and that her DNA did not define her . . . but then she killed a man.

    Now on the run, Davy must decide whether she'll be ruled by the kill gene or if she'll follow her heart and fight for her right to live free. But with her own potential for violence lying right beneath the surface, Davy doesn't even know if she can trust herself.

    UNINVITED asks the question: will you let the world define who you are or will you choose to define yourself? Put simply: I loved this book!

    Praise for the Firelight series: “The Firelight series is a rare sparkling gem. I delved into the mystical world and discovered a fast–paced, gripping story. …Anytime my readers ask for a book recommendation, I always say, ‘Read Sophie Jordan!’

    A riveting, disconcerting vision of a near–future corrupted by genetic profiling. Thoroughly unputdownable.

    Gr 8 Up—Davy and her friends are back in this sequel to Uninvited (HarperCollins, 2014). Since receiving her diagnosis of Homicidal Tendency Syndrome, Davy's life has changed dramatically. As government policies about treatment of those in possession of the "kill gene" continue to evolve, her position in society becomes increasingly untenable. Her initial attempt to escape to Mexico is unsuccessful and she is separated from her friends (and boyfriend, Sean). She is rescued by a group of resistance fighters and quickly develops feelings for Caden. There is infighting within the resistance cell, but Davy is torn between staying with Caden and attempting to reach Mexico and Sean. Everything wraps up neatly and quickly. Readers will miss Sean and be confused by Davy's quick change of heart toward Caden. More sophisticated readers of dystopian fiction may question why the book didn't delve deeper into the concept of a "kill gene," instead of simply accepting it as a plot point. However, fans of the first installment will likely enjoy this and the subsequent volume.

    Davy's escaped from the government camp of Uninvited (2014), but she's on the run and still far from safe.At a safe house, Davy and her fellow escaped Homicidal Tendency Syndrome carriers wait to cross the border to Mexico, where they'll be out of reach of the U.S. government. But Davy can't stop thinking of the man she shot at the government training school, under the threat of love interest Sean's execution if she refused. Unable to separate thoughts of Sean from her victim, Davy's romantic feelings wane. The group's border crossing is a predictable disaster, and injured Davy is separated from her friends—but luckily rescued by a new handsome boy! Teenage resistance leader Caden brings her to a secret Resistance compound for treatment, and the plot dramatically slows. The HTS program's history and its ongoing efforts are mainly told in epigraphs between chapters—press items, communication transcripts and the like—leaving the bulk of the text focused on the romantic storyline. Tiresome girl-on-girl hostility stemming from romantic rivalry runs rampant and motivates big decisions made by the female characters. The occasional action scenes are more compelling. The ending seems to conclude the story—well, the romantic story at least—but readers may feel let down by the scant resolution of the HTS storyline and how so much of it passes off the page entirely. Only for romance fans. (Dystopian romance. 14-18)
