About this listen

He's always taken risks…but this risk might be his last.

In a society that has forgotten that some of its citizens are human, Kalib Fisher is just trying to survive.

Born into the Cobalts, the lowest rung of society, he has done everything to protect those he loves, even if it meant skirting the rules. So when an opportunity presents itself to ensure the safety of his best friend, Tenly Hawkins, he must leave everything behind and follow her into the Cobalt Premier Workforce.

But instead of being happy, Tenly begrudges his choice and rejects him. Somehow she knows he doesn't deserve the placement and must have cheated to get ahead.

Nothing is as he knew it in a new Scarlet household that holds dangerous secrets, and Kalib must accept a fate that could lead to his destruction.

Despite the threat, his pull to Tenly won't leave his mind, especially when he sees her drawing closer to a treacherous member of her household…and there's little he can do to protect her this time.

This is the story from Collapsed but from Kalebs point of view so you find what happens to him in between Tenly's story. It fills in so many pieces from the first book. Collapsed is a brilliant story set in the future where the cobalts are the works or basically slaves who work in the factories and live in the tenements. They don't own much, can't afford much and are treated badly where the rich Scarlets see them as lesser beings. So if the get her or killed in the factories it's seen as the victims fault. The Sentries are a law to themselves regularly beating up the cobalts, kidnapping and attacking the women just because they can. Tenly applied to the cobalt work program and is annoyed to find kaleb has got in too even though he hadn't been interested. This is Kalebs story of why he did it. Its brilliant and really well narrated. Looking forward to the next one.
I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author but the opinions expressed are my own.
