Trust amid unstable technology and shifting loyalties

Alyona’s family history, strained relationship with her sister, and uncertain feelings for her best friend converge around teleportation technology left behind by her parents. As underground resistance groups and government control enter the picture, trust becomes both a personal challenge and a source of risk. The setup links young-adult romance with science-fiction conflict, keeping the stakes close to Alyona’s relationships as well as the wider struggle over power and technology.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in science-fiction romance
  • Readers who enjoy stories combining family tensions, friendship, and questions of trust
  • Those drawn to speculative conflicts involving teleportation technology and resistance movements

Book overview

NOTHING IN ALYONA'S LIFE works the way it should: not her toaster (stealing parts from it probably didn't help), not her relationship with her older sister (who's also stuck playing legal guardian), not her feelings for her best friend, Jaxon (who's way too cute for his own good), and certainly not the teleportation tech her parents invented before they died.

 

If Alyona wants to fix any of it, she'll have to do the one thing she's worst at: trust people. But when underground resistance groups, controlling government forces, and her own doubts start closing in, it all comes down to one thing- Who can she trust...and what will it cost if she's wrong?
