Stained Series Blog Tour: Review of Stolen by Ella James

 

Genre: Young Adult (Paranormal Romance)

The Blurb:
With Cayne's fate in the hands of his enemies and Julia spirited away to the covert Stained compound, the two are separated by impenetrable walls and a gulf of unanswered questions. Soon Julia learns the truth about the Stained and the plans they have for her, the compound is attacked, and a new group is running from an unwanted destiny, searching the globe in pursuit of the knowledge that just might save them all.

My Review:
Stolen is the second book in the Stained Series by Ella James. If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend you read the first book, Stained, before you read this review. You can also check out my review of Stained. 


Stolen picked up where Stained left off. Julia is brought to a compound where other Stained people are being held. While there, she meets some new friends and learns new things about herself and others like her. She also learns about Cayne's past. While we all knew from book one, his past couldn't have been a good one, this helps us know why he behaved the way he did in Stained. Stolen teased me with some new mysteries concerning Cayne as well. It's hard to say too much without giving a spoiler or two, so I won't. I can't wait to learn more in the next book, Chosen, which will be released next month!

Milo Mitchell's life used to be charmed, but that was before her family dissolved, she went a little crazy, and her best friends started acting more like strangers. Spending Saturday morning in a treehouse with a stun gun for company and a herd of deer for friends is the only exciting thing in her life...until she shoots a fawn and finds her dart stuck in a guy.

Her gorgeous victim is dressed in a Brioni tux and armed with a hanky. He has no idea who or where he is. Afraid her dart caused his amnesia, Milo takes him in, names him Nick, and vows to help him solve his mystery. Soon the pair find Nick's face in a newspaper obituary, and Nick begins to have strange, ethereal memories of Milo--who is sure she's never met him. Suddenly Nick knows things he shouldn't know and is doing things he shouldn't do. When the Department of Defense shows up, Nick and Milo run--toward a shocking conclusion that could destroy both their worlds. My review coming soon!

BEFORE YOU GO:

Margo Ford just became an heiress. Not the Paris Hilton kind. Her billions came after her father died and her insanely wealthy, insanely absent mother officially claimed her. Unfortunately, some terrorists noticed, and they hatched a plot to kidnap her. After a news report goes awry, reporting that Margo *has* been kidnapped, and her mother offers the humiliating sum of $500,000 for her return, Margo doesn't want anything to do with her *#$!@ of an egg donor. Then she is sentenced to a summer of "protection" on her mother's private island. Not the Oprah Winfrey kind. This one has an astronomical observatory filled with scientists, including Logan Greer, a super hot, super infuriating planet-hunter. Hiding out from kidnappers has never been so boring... until suddenly it isn't anymore. Read my review.
