Archenemies

Meyer, Marissa. Archenemies. Book 2 of the Renegades series. 2018. 471p. ISBN 9781250078308. Available at FIC MEY on the library shelves.


As an Anarchist named Nightmare, Nova was feared for her ability to put people to sleep just by touching them. In Renegades, Nova wanted to wreck revenge on those she holds responsible for her parents and her sister's deaths. With her fellow Anarchists, she developed a plan that involved entering into Renegade service. After successfully completing trials, Nova took the name Insomnia and she joined the ranks of the law-enforcing Renegades, a group of prodigies who possess super powers. Her plan was simple. She would discover where they keep the helmet of Ace Anarchy, the super villain that almost destroyed Gatlon City, who happens to be her uncle. 

As Insomnia, Nova was assigned to Adrian's squad. Adopted by Captain Chromium and the Dread Warden, Adrian is known as Sketch, as his drawings come to life, and he is both respected and loved. Nova was tasked with making Adrian fall in love with her, so that she could gain access to secrets and inside information. 

But both Nova and Adrian have secrets. As Nightmare, she wants to destroy the Renegades. Adrian, for his part, is the Sentinel, a prodigy who's wanted by the very Renegades that he leads. When they both learn that the Renegades have developed Agent N, a neutralizer that removes a prodigy's powers, they both realize that the dangerous game they have been playing has just turned deadly. With the line between good and evil never clearer, both Adrian and Nova must make choices that will change their lives and their feelings for each other forever ...

The story concludes in Supernova.
