Publisher's Summary:
Determined to escape from TOR-N, a corrupt Narxis research center, Davis meets another recovered patient, Mercer, whose sweet smile and quirky sense of humor give her hope in humanity again - and a way out. As they make a perilous journey seeking clues that could lead to a cure, Davis and Mercer's friendship begins to evolve into something more...but she's still struggling to let go of her feelings for Cole, whom she believes is dead. Meanwhile Cole has plans to change his identity in order to compete in the Olympiads - where Imps have now been invited to compete against Priors. He begins training with Mari, the intense and rebellious daughter of a retired fighter, but through trials and tests that are both exhausting and exhilarating, he finds himself in over his head - literally. Will both Davis and Cole have the strength to resist temptation? Will they have the courage to face the answers they seek? Will their love survive across the divide?

Torn
I loved this book and will definitely read it again. It was heart wrenching and fast paced with love and hope caught in the middle.
I liked it more than Feuds
I enjoyed reading Torn. It wasn't amazing or anything but I liked it a bit more than Feuds. The ending, though, left me with some questions. If it wasn't for that I'd probably given it four stars.
In this sequal Davis and Cole were pretty much seperate until the end (*sniffles*). One the one hand I liked most of that because they had to find their own path back to each other, each having struggles they had to face, but on the other hand I had wished they'd spend a little more time together because I missed seeing them together.
At the start of the book Davis is still stuck at TOR-N, which is an awful place to be with corrupt doctors, terrible living conditions and people dying. I kind of wished that the time spend at TOR-N was more written about more extensively about the months she spend there.
In the.She met Mercer there who Davis bonds with and eventually escapes TOR-N with. I really really really disliked Mercer. I just knew he was lying about some things and I just hated the little s***.
Cole in the meantime is in hiding and trying to do everything he can to go back to Davis, which means competing in the Olympiads. He starts training and even takes over his friend Brent's identity to be able to enter. I must admit I was more curious about Cole than Davis, although I enjoyed both their points of view.
Some things felt a little rushed and not explained enough in the story. And then the ending felt all too easy and wrapped up. I'm not sure there will be another book because everything was resolved. I guess I didn't like it in the end that for the whole book Davis and Cole weren't together. But all in all, I really did enjoy most of the story. The writing, although sometimes rushed, was pretty good. I do hope another book will come, though, but who knows!
Torn is a heart-stopping race against time as two lovers fight against all odds to get back to each other.

PROS:
When I read Feuds, the first book in this series, I fell in love, the starry-eyed, heart pounding kind with Davis and Cole.
