Well that was, different. I went into this book with some pretty decent expectations, really thinking I was gonna get a typical love triangle trope but, wow was I thrown for a pretty obvious loop. Raised in the LIC (Love Interest Center), Caden is chosen to be a Nice, a spy of the boy next door type, to win over young scientist Juliet. He is up against a Bad named Dyl who he is competing against, whoever Juliet picks in the end lives, the other dies. When Caden begins to develop feelings for Dyl, he puts a wrench into the entire operation, to the point where both of them plus Juliet, New friend Trev and former Love Interest Natalie on the run to bring down the entire company.
I assumed going into the story that it was a typical love triangle with two boys liking the same girl and she'd have a hell of a time picking one over the other, but as soon as Caden and Dyl were en route to start wooing Juliet, it was pretty obvious where the story was going. Not that that's a bad thing but pretty obvious and I could tell where the story was going from there. It was a pretty easy read and had a pretty violent climax but overall, I don't think I'd read it again.
Pros:
a new twist on love triangle trope
Cons:
pretty obvious twists
