I pouted, and August's eyes locked on my bottom lip. "I wouldn't do that if I were you," he breathed.

I raised my eyebrows, felt my heart pump into overdrive. "Oh?"

"You want to kiss me?"

"It'd be a start."

Este Ferryn, boxer and recently emotionally scarred teenager, rolls with the punches just as well as she doles them out.

So, when her plane goes down over a mysteriously uninhabited island and traps she and her friends out in the unknown, Este does the only thing that feels natural to her: she fights for her loved ones. The only problem? This time, she's got no idea what she's fighting against.

Before long, survivors of the crash start to mysteriously disappear- right into thin air- and Este becomes absolutely certain of a few terrible truths: she and her friends aren't alone on the Island. And, whatever else is there?

It's been waiting for them.
