Driven (Warriors – 2) by Rebecca Royce
My name is Rachel Clancy. Forty-six years ago, life as humanity understood it ended. Armageddon. Well, that’s what we call it, anyway. What other term works as well to describe the day the Vampires and Werewolves slaughtered nearly all of humanity?
When Rachel Clancy turned sixteen, she inadvertently changed the lives of everyone around her. Now, six months later she has to figure out how to live with what has happened.
Sent back into the wilderness—this time with a new love—she will find herself face-to-face with two people she never thought to see again: the boy she thought she loved and the man who wanted to destroy her since birth. If Rachel can learn what drives her forward, there may be a chance for everyone to start again. If she fails, all is lost.
My Review
5 stars
It is 6 months after Jason left Rachel and she is still hurting. She is trying to pick up the pieces of her heart and finds that she is attracted to Chad. But her vampire senses can tell that the vampires are tunneling into their compound. The decision is made to send Rachel and Chad to another facility, Liberty to call for help. On their way, both are captured by vampire loving humans. While waiting to be sacrificed, Rachel notices three werewolves with them and realizes that one is Jason. But there is no time to hash out their differences when she also realizes that there are warriors from Liberty and learns that the compound fell six months prior. The group escapes but get back to the compound and find that vampires and werewolves are inside and there is a huge loss of human lives.
I really enjoyed reading Initiation but Driven blows it out of the water. There is a great story with lots of twists and turns to keep you guessing. Rachel has come a long way since we first met her in Initiation but she still blames herself for the loss of any life. I admit that I was pissed at Jason but when you hear his side you can kind of sort of understand.
If you like apocalyptic/dystopia stories with vampires and werewolves this is the series for you. I am super excited to see what happens next in Subversive.
To purchase Driven make sure to check out Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Goodreads and Rebecca Royce’s website. I have heard that she is in the process of changing publishers at the time of this review. If you don’t see the book available now, make sure to check back.
I received Driven for free from Candid Book Reviews in exchange for an honest review.
