WARNING! CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM THE PREVIOUS BOOK!!!
Since I wrote a book review for the first book in this series, I thought I should probably write one for this! To be blunt, I didn’t like this book… But on the bright side, it was better than the first book (Blood Ties). This book is also by Sophie Mckenzie (obviously, as it is the same series!) The plot was fast paced and kinda good… I just thought that it was too… what the word? er… when something just happens and it suddenly “fixes the situa More...

What i loved about the first book, Blood Ties, is that although it had at least 400 pages, the story flowed so well that before you knew it, you were already half way through, and it was exactly the same with this one. I liked how the story started right away and there was not the pointless information at the beginning that a lot of books have, which you have to struggle through to get to the exciting stuff and i also liked how there was the new experiment with the babies and Eos Protein and it More...

4½ Out of 5 Stars
Nine months have passed since Blood Ties, and Theo and Rachel now live across the Atlantic from one another. They’ve been given new identities to protect them. Why? Because they are clones. They were created by the evil genius Elijah, and are hunted by both him and a group known as RAGE (the Righteous Army against Genetic Engineering), who view clones as “unnatural”. But when Rachel finds out that Elijah is about to kill Daniel, a five-year-old clone of the scientist, to take th More...

I was completely blown away by Blood Ties so I could not wait to read this one. I literally picked it up as soon as I'd finished the first! I was so taken with Rachel and Theo I had to know what happened next.

The story picks up nine months after the end of Blood Ties. Not able to see each other, but communicating every week through chat rooms Theo becomes concerned when Rachel misses one of their meetings. Convinced something is wrong he comes across an article online claiming she has c More...

I absolutely loved 'Blood Ties' when I read it earlier this year and had no idea that there was going to be a sequel. Imagine my excitement when I saw this in my local bookshop! I bought it immediately!

This book is a perfect read for when you get home after a long day at work and you want to pick up something that will make you forget everything but the story you're reading. The action picks up within the first few pages, with very little prelude and maintains a constant pace until the end of t More...

I was really excited to be getting this book. I read the first one a while back and then got to meet Sophie McKenzie a while back and one of the things we chatted about was how much I liked this particular series of hers and she said that she loved Rachel as a character and I certainly agree with her.

This book is definately Rachel's story. She thinks and acts as the new confident Rachel we met towards the end of the last book. I enjoyed following her story throughout. This story develops what w More...

AMAZING
it was really good but it freaked me out a bit (was rachels tank wierd or what?) and omg how could a man be so mean??? and i liked how it was split into three parts for his three little projects. milo appeared a it suddenly though (wasnt it kinda inevitable it was a trap rachel you idiot?)and it was kinda not very believable (i know its fictional but it can be real inside my head - no im not mad,, dont worry). Sometimes the characters dont really think, But i loved the book anyway.

I was so glad when i found out that Mckenzie did a sequel for Blood ties, i liked the first book when i read it years before and so i thought i just had to read this one to see what happened to clones Theo and Rachel. I was glad that Rachel finally got some backbone in this book and did some ass-kicking for herself. I think Theo also grew more as well through this book, and i liked how at the end they both stuck up for themselves. I was upset to learn that Daniel had died, and the awful experime More...

An excellent sequel to 'Blood Ties', which is my favourite Sophie Mckenzie book. The only thing that stopped it from gaining all five stars is the fact that the ending seemed a little rush and we never found out what happened to Milo, a new character introduced in the book. Yet I still throughly enjoyed it, especially to anyone who has read the first one or is interested in biology or cloning.

In the first book Theo and Rachel find out that they are actually clones created by the mad scientist Elijah Lazio. Now Elijah is in hiding and Theo and Rachel are safe but far away from each other. When Rachel hears that David is going to be killed to give Elijah a new hearth she races to save him but too late finds out that it's a trap. Meanwhile halfway around the world Theo finds out that Rachel has comitted suicide but he doesn't believe it and goes to save him.
I picked this book up because More...

I have to say, this was by far my favorite book by Sophie McKenzie. I really loved the characters, (especially Theo *_*) and enjoyed the story and plot. Again, Sophie's style of writing is very fluent, and easy to read. I loved all of her books, but well done on this one Sophie McKenzie!

I really didn't like this book, I've read the first and fairly enjoyed it, but I just didn't connect with the characters and I felt I was only reading it because I had too. Disappointing

Great book! I preferred the first book and I thought the ending could have been better. At times the pacing could have been better but overall a great book which I couldn’t stop reading!

Absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! So gutted that there isn't a sequel. Happy for Rachel and Theo though. Theo seems like a really good guy and I am glad that Rachel has got much more confident. I am definitely in love with Sophie McKenzie's books right now. Gonna read Sister, Missing soon and Missing me (the sequel to Sister, Missing) has just come out so hopefull that should be good to!! For anyone who hasn't read the prequel, it's Blood Ties. It is an amazing book, even better than this one (unbelievab More...
