it would have been nice to see what really made them best friends, but they lack trust and communication. the relationship between chloe and her “best friend” doesn’t seem like it should, and there’s a lot more distance between them than i would have expected. I mostly found the relationships between the characters lacking. hopefully, the next book will reveal a lot more about their personalities and motivations. i really want to see all the characters develop in the other books, since most of them are pretty flat in this book. i’m definitely curious about their secrets, since both of them have abnormal origins. both of the main guys in the story have interesting personalities, as well as mysterious backstories. I don’t LOVE the characters, but i do think some of them are very interesting, especially the love interests. I have to admit that the synopsis isn’t the most original, but there are a lot of twists in this book, and skye malone makes this story pretty unique. *i received this book in exchange for an honest review.* And her best friend’s stepbrother seems to be hiding secrets all his own.

A mysterious guy with glowing blue eyes is following her. Things to which ‘normal’ doesn’t even begin to apply. Dangerous things that should be impossible. She only wanted to do something normal for once, and maybe get to know her best friend’s hot stepbrother a bit better at the same time.But the first day she goes out on the ocean, strange things start to happen. She only wanted a vacation, someplace far from her crazy parents and their irrational fear of water. Neither was ending up the target of killers, or having her body change in unusual ways. Running away from home was never Chloe Kowalski’s plan.
