Prenna and her mother live with a colony of others who have traveled from the future. Their world is dying, and it was their only chance to survive. To live here, they must follow the colony’s rules especially with interactions with the habitants. No one can find out their secret or their future will be at risk. Ethan is kind to Prenna and she is warming to him. She does not remember meeting Ethan when she arrived in this time.

The book has a steady pace, the characters are somewhat developed, and it is written in the third person point of view. There is a romantic thriller twist to the story. It was a quick read and I really enjoyed it. If you like time travel stories, you will enjoy this book.
