Trust Burned: a gripping romantic YA Disaster Dystopian (Deadly Earth Book 2) Kindle Edition

***The sequel to the award-winning international bestseller***

As the fire of fear spreads, some want to watch the world burn.

Henley Bickford earned a scholarship to a prestigious university after building her own bionic hand. Consumed by the fire to save people with her inventions, she works in the engineering sector of a high-tech lab, until she learns the "termination" clause in her robotics project contract is a literal one.
 
An ally on the outside warns Ace "Buster" Acton it's time to drop his covert task of stealing university research for the government. His new goal: extract a genetic mutant and the woman who created her. 
​
It’s not in Ace's nature to leave an asset behind, while Henley has no choice but to take his hand and run. With enemies blazing hot on their tail, they must collaborate with a competing team vying for their stolen goods if they hope to save countless lives... including their own. 
​
Outrunning the brightest minds in the country won’t be easy. Can the growing band of misfits work together to protect the mutant that can save humanity? Or will they be silenced by their own inventions?

Fans of the Maze Runner, the Hunger Games, and the movies The Day After Tomorrow and 2012 will get sucked into the gripping trilogy reviewers call unique and refreshing with dynamic characters, a smattering of romance, and twists and turns of edge-of-your-seat action, mystery and danger!

Called even better than the first book, book 2 in the internationally bestselling, award-winning disaster dystopian trilogy, is an speculative story of survival, slow-burn romance, and the power of innovation!
(A clean NA with some sexual references and swearing.)

We see what a small spark can do to the environment today, as proven in our current news, and it is easy to see how the effects of our human carelessness can destroy our homes and the environment around us.

When Henley discovers that the end of her job could mean the end of her life, she goes on the run with Buster at her side, in a race to save her sister from the same fate. The horrors they've realized continue to multiply as the two meet up with others who are also trying to escape the clutches of some of the greatest minds remaining on the planet. Their journey leads them on a cat and mouse game while the enemy continues to gain on them at each turn. Will they escape? Will they even survive? And is there any help for those who are trying to save the earth?

This story is non-stop adventure and excitement. One moment you believe you know who the enemy is, and in the next, you find out he might be sitting right next to you. And in the meantime, the world ignites with more danger than anyone can predict. It had me on the edge of my seat and made it impossible to put the book down until I reached the end. I am beyond anticipating the next book in the series.

“Faded Flare”, book two in the Climatic Climacteric series is very well written. I enjoyed the storyline and the unique characters. Most of the time the characters kept you guessing on number of things which is intriguing and a page turner. Henley and Buster’s relationship is very interesting. This story has more of an climatic emphasis on fires. It was very surreal reading the fires parts in the book because at the time I read this, the horrific fires in California were burning. I recommend this great read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining, unique series!
Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2020
This one was fun! I enjoy the bit of a road trip vibe going on. This one is in the POV’s of Henley and Ace; both are from the possibly shady university that had something to do with Sirena from the first book. I’d definitely read the first book before this one to get more of the story about Sirena. Plus, this book starts right after the events of the first book. I’m liking the bit of dystopian aspect going on with the water overtaking some of the land; this series discusses some environmental issues going on with Earth. Henley, Ace, and Jen have taken Sirena from the University and are trying to get her somewhere safe. The University has lots of technology to try to find the group, so they are having to deal with a lot and they didn’t exactly prepare well for their trip. Liked the scenario with Henley having a bionic hand, and with the mystery surrounding Ace. Really enjoying this series so far! Excited to read the last book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Trying to Escape BSTU
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2020
You will probably want to split this NC17 near-future escape attempt over a couple of days as it took me about twelve hours. Sirena from Silent Siren is still trying to escape BSTU, but this one is mostly about Henley Bickford. I had an ARC and this Voluntary Review is my own opinion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Prose
Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2018
Complicated plot, beautifully written, dynamic characters is everything you can expect from this environmental thrilling adventure. Sometimes sequels can fall a little short of expectations but Faded Flare isn't one of those. I was very impressed with the writing style. Moreover, I found that this series is turning out to be completely different to other YA/NA novels I've read. The underlying themes are extremely relevant in terms of environmental issues and this story illustrates the urgency in protecting our planet without seeming 'preachy'. It's a fast-paced plot which keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout without distracting from the human aspect of the story. A truly thrilling read.
