I received a free copy e-ARC for an honest review.
Is death their only way out? I freaking loved this book - Mandy and Georgia are back along with Scott, Jasmine and some new guys Martin,Tim and Nate. The books takes off right where Touch of Frost left off - and it's nonstop from start to finish. I don't want to give away anymore than the synopsis does because this book is worth reading and not having anything spoil it for you. I'm sad that I'm now going to have to wait even longer for the third book especially with the way this one ends. I could not put it down and highly recommend this series to anyone who likes New Adult books :)

*I received an ARC of Absolute Zero in exchange for an honest review
4.5/5 Stars!
Absolute Zero is the sequel to the first story in the Touch of Frost series, beginning where Frostbite left off. It begins with Mandy and her newly discovered twin sister Georgia heading off to college to try and begin a somewhat normal life, despite the fact that they both have super powers and are still being chased by some unknown agency.
The romantic element begins with Mandy and her relationship with Zach Landry cooling down. Zach is spending a lot of time away from Mandy with work and other commitments, which leaves her wondering what is going on. And as they say—when the cat’s away…
While attending her first “normal” college event (a party, of course!) Mandy meets hunky Nate Ashcroft, fellow college student who turns up living in the same apartment complex as her and Georgia. When Zach soon breaks Mandy’s heart, she falls right into Nate’s arms. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Nate from the start and he ultimately became my fave to win Mandy's heart.
The love triangle is one of those plot twists that we love to hate…it works in Absolute Zero, but it breaks your heart with the great characters that Rush creates—it’s hard to pick sides when you love them all! I was actually pulling for Zach (for awhile), although I kept wondering what the hell he was thinking. When Mandy and Nate start heating up though, Nate grew on me and like a typical girl, I changed my mind!
Ultimately, Mandy has to choose between her first love, and a man who understands her in a way that Zach never could.
Absolute Zero was a great sequel to Frostbite. Rush always includes awesome action and plot twists that keep you turning pages until the very end. Each story concludes with enough resolution to keep you satisfied but eagerly anticipating the next read.
And as always, I can’t wait to see what happens next—in the final story of the Touch of Frost series, Cryostorm (coming summer, 2014!)

Book 2 in the 'Touch of Frost' Series by Lynn Rush is a non stop action packed sequel to Frostbite Touch of Frost 1
I don't want to give too much away, as this is a second book and I would hate to give too much away to readers who haven't read book 1 (which is a great start to an AWESOME series)
Suffice to say the characters are great, Amanda is learning to hone her skills more, shes got a lot on her plate, what with starting college and moving into her first apartment with Georgia.
Scott her brother is still running his smoothie shop with Jasmine helping him (girlfriend) they think that they are safely hidden from the 'Coats' but are trying to stay under the radar just in case.
Georgia - well I can't say much without spoiling it, but she is the perfect sidekick to Amanda, and together they can watch each others backs.
Zach is still Amanda's boyfriend, but when a new chapter in your life starts and new people are in the mix, will their fledgling relationship hold?
There are some characters, Nate, Martin and Tim, these are the college lads who live in the same apartment block. Amanda feels a pull towards him, but Nate is not what he seems, can Amanda trust her instincts or will the attraction end up biting her in the Backside...
I really enjoyed this book and it was full of action, well done Ms Rush, I look forward to reading Book 3 (I hope I don't have too long to wait)
This review will be on my blog along with my review for book 1 in conjunction the release tour, I was gifted this book for the review But I would definitely buy it and recommend to YA / Paranormal book lovers

Being a massive fan of Lynn Rush and her extraordinary brand of storytelling, and stories I knew that this book would be no exception.
Absolute Zero is the second instalment in the series and it certainly has you piqued and encased within the storyline.
Absolute-ly enjoyed it !! Pss loving this cover ! Just perfection.
Along with page-turning suspense, UNPREDICTABLE plot, mega hotness ** (TEAM NATE *) Lynn Rush has given us a fantastic continuous on with this second instalment. .
The storyline is filled with twists and turns, romance and giggles and I fell in love with all the characters a little more with each page turn.
The story runs at a great pace, keeping the reader hooked till that very last page has been turned.
There is never a dull moment, if we aren’t being swooned by Nate and his sweetness , we are being taken on a rush of adrenaline with the kick arse antics of the girls. At moments its rather hot other moments a tad icy :) haha. -
It is great to read a story and plot that is new and refreshing, unique and certainly one of a kind, and this author always delivers the goodies.
Lynn's writing style always grabs my attention..
I enjoyed all the characters, their depth, and the storyline was solid and unwound nicely as the story progressed.
This book and series: is a well delivered package – with romance, suspense, heartache, and a mixture of all the goodies one could find in a paranormal romance.
UNPREDICTABLE, REFRESHING AND A DOWNRIGHT ICE BREAKER ;)

Absolute Zero reveals a lot of information and you must pay close attention how to all the previous characters come into play and how they relate to Amanda’s parents and past. I gave this book a 4 star rating as well. It is a definite must read. Make sure to read Frostbite prior to Absolute Zero for supporting facts.
Mandy senses Zach’s distance in their relationship. But what is it that is keeping Zach so busy? I was so disappointed in Zach’s decisions.
Nate is a hot, mystifying, fellow college student that is also Mandy & Georgia’s neighbor. He pops into Mandy’s love life at the perfect time. Will Nate & Mandy’s past pull them closer together or will Mandy shut Nate out like everyone else that has tried to come into her life?
Mandy never thought her life would ever be where she has become within just a few months and how close a few people have become to her. Again she is faced with the decision of should I stay and fight or relocate? What other decisions will she make/face that will not only impact her, but her family as well.
I cannot wait for book 3 Cryostorm to be released to hear more about these characters and their story.

Absolute Zero ist der 2. Teil der Touch of Frost Trilogie.
Das Cover ist wieder traumhaft schön. Und die beiden Mädels Georgia und Mandy sind fantastisch getroffen.
Mandy und Georgia starten in ihr "normales" Lebens als College Studenten. Aber leider ist nicht alles perfekt. Georgias Freund meldet sich gar nicht mehr bei ihr und auch Zach verhält sich sehr merkwürdig gegenüber Mandy.
Aber Ersatz steht schon vor der Tür in Form ihres Nachbarn Nate Ashcroft. Er ist richtig heiss und scheint sich für Mandy zu interessieren, was auf Gegenseitigkeit beruht. Allerdings ist
Mandy zwischen ihren Gefühlen für Zach und Nate hin- und hergerissen. Für wen sie sich wohl entscheiden wird?
Auch Scott und Yasmine sind wieder dabei, und neben Nate auch noch andere neue Charaktere, die mich begeistern konnten.
Die Geschichte ist wieder spannend und zu keiner Zeit langweilig. Die Handlung ist teilweise actiongeladen und an anderer Stelle wieder gefühlsduselig. Der Autorin ist eine recht gute Mischung gelungen. Durch neue Fakten über die Agenten und deren Helfer ist die Geschichte packend bis zum Schluss.
Das Ende hat mich dann doch etwas überrascht, obwohl es die einzig logische Möglichkeit scheint.
Jetzt bin ich natürlich neugierig wie es weitergeht und freue mich schon auf Teil 3 Cryostorm.

Another awesome book in the Touch of Frost series. It brings the further adventures of Amanda and Georgia. Having discovered in Frostbite that they are twins, Georgia is learning more of her own abilities with fire. Their brother Scott creates a cover for them so that they may go to college. There they meet Nate, who Mandy has an instant connection to, and Tim who Georgia falls for.
Once again they are 'found' by The Center - or so they think.
Through this the girls discover that Nate and Tim and their friend Martin are like them. They escape, only to be found again and almost caught.
I can't wait to read the next book. This one kept me on the edge of my seat. It has action, adventure, love, danger and super powers. What more could you want. I loved it!

I received a free e-ARC for an honest review.
Lynn Rush has done it again, i loved this book!
The main characters from the first book return along with some interesting new characters.
A roller coaster of a read from start to finish, unputdownable and a real page turner from beginning to end.
I can't say too much without giving away the plot, but well worth reading.
if you love this genre, the first book is a must read to give you an understanding of the characters that you will just fall in love with.
Can't wait now to read the 3rd instalment.

This is book 2 in the Touch of Frost series. Book 1 is Frostbite. (need to read in order)
I'm always afraid I'll give something away when trying to write a review, so this will be spoiler free.

Along with Amanda,Georgia, Scott, Jasmine and Zach, we get to meet a few new characters and just wait till you find out their stories :) The girls are in college now and they are still hiding from the bad guys and so much more. Your gonna love it.

Awesome
Love the characters in this series. Almost hated Zach for a while but now I just feel bad for him and Scott. Evil scientists need to go, their heads got to big, sheesh. And Love Nate, his curiosity, his wonder and his capacity to love.
