Book Description:

It’s been six months since the Arcadia set sail. But this wasn’t the freedom the inhabitants were hoping for. Esther did what she had to do, but she left a trail of destruction in her wake. Now the wrecked ship is abandoned, and its inhabitants are in exile, trapped in makeshift shelters.

Esther and Nik, architects of the rebellion, are on the run. Esther is in hiding and Nik seems to have abandoned all hope. But neither of them wants to face up to their true feelings for each other. And there’s a new villain in town: ruthless Admiral Janek who wants to deal with the traitors while outrunning her own shady past.

When the shaky ceasefire negotiated by Nik’s mom, General Lall, falls apart, Nik and Esther find themselves in a world of betrayals and double crossings—a game of power with no one to trust but themselves.
