From Goodreads: In the year 2053, Dallas bounty hunter Mina Maxwell’s goal is to reach Global status, and she is only three catches away from the needed 25. During one of her hunts, she lets criminal Roberto Franco go in order to capture his higher-ranking boss. It is a mistake that will come back to haunt her.

As she continues on toward her goal, she battles with the demons of her past, among them being Damon Wolfe, her Global bounty hunter lover who left her without explanation. Attempting to heal the damage is Mina’s good friend, musician Jackson Kincade, who has been hinting at taking their friendship to the next level if she will let him.

All hope for the future shatters when Roberto returns, hunts her down, and kidnaps her. His plan: weaken her body and crush her spirit so he can sell her to the highest bidder.

Kidd has done a phenomenal job painting an interesting picture of the future in her debut novel, and I must say that I was hooked from the very beginning.  I love books that deal with the future, and I really enjoyed this well written, action packed thriller!  Kidd certainly has a vivid imagination, putting together a future so enticing that I’m dying to get a hold of the gadgets Mina uses throughout the text, especially as Mina Maxwell is a kick-butt heroine and I just couldn’t get enough of her.  She knows what she wants and won’t let anything stand in her way; it’s a refreshing take on the female lead.  Kidd has presented Mina in such a way that the reader can’t help but feel for her as she fights her way to the top amid personal crisis and immensely evil antagonists. 

Mina is presented in such a way that she feels 100% real, like I could look up from the pages and literally see her standing across the room.  This novel took me into another world, providing me with a mini vacation as I lived alongside Mina while reading her story.  I really enjoyed it, though I was extremely anxious for Mina on multiple occasions, especially when Roberto was involved.  Overall, Kidd has done a fantastic job making this novel pop right off the pages, and I can’t wait for the sequel.  Four stars.

I recieved a copy of this novel from the author in exchange for an honest review.
