A love that can never be forgotten...

The truth about Celestra Caine comes back in the most shocking way. Everyone knew Celestra Caine was dangerous, but they didn't know she was THAT dangerous... As Celestra's memories begin returning to her after being Faded, and her identity is revealed, she learns the fate of the world really is in her hands, and that she, the mysterious and sexy fader Jack, and her handsome ex-boyfriend Gray are more connected to each other than she ever imagined.

In this dystopian YA thriller, where nothing is what it seems, sometimes love can be strong enough to withstand time and space and never be forgotten.

Forgotten is an explosive addition to the Fade series! Kailin Gow gets to the heart of Celestra’s story and throws the biggest loops ever. Falling ended with a chilling cliff-hanger and an epilogue that shows how much more there is to Grayson, Jack, and Celestra’s pasts. Forgotten introduces a new player and revelations that will completely change expectations of this series.

Celes finally knows more about where she’s from and what roles Grayson and Jack play in her life. The connection they all have with each other is seen in a clearer light and much of what’s happened in the series, so far, comes to make perfect sense. The twist that Kailin adds in this story is surprising and terrifying at the same time. The danger following Celes isn’t just about her anymore. Now, the world is at stake and it’s up to her to save it.

Celes has come a long way from the scared girl who had to leave behind her family to protect them from the Others. Kailin has made sure that she’s a strong character with the talent for leading and it’s evident in Celestra’s actions. Her love life may still be a little shaky, but her confidence is solid. The future of this series is bright even though Celestra’s world may be headed toward destruction. Fever, the next installment of the Fade series, is surely going to excite and impress readers even further!

Another brilliantly and agonizing written cliff-hanger ending by Kailin Gow.

Book after book, series after series, Gow creates cautionary tales with themes as old as time, yet still written with a new twist. Gow's universe is so beautifully written, highly descriptive and seamlessly woven into her stories that the foreign, altered or flawed existence is not only believable but highly plausible. She populates these worlds with intelligent, complex heroines. Strong young women, as normal as any modern young woman, worried about scoring well on the SAT's, earning the trust of parents while struggling with a desire for independence, dealing with unfamiliar desires for the affection of another and the sometimes unpopular (and unfortunately realistic) concept of having the confidence to stand up for herself and others, to understand that love is not sex and that valuing one's self and beliefs is where we find our true strength.

This book was amazing! I love this book series and love the creativeness from this author. She has a signature romance style that I have found in her book series in which there is a love triangle that is very intense...

This book keeps you entertained with more action, suspense, and young romance to keep you glued to the book!
