Synopsis
Voices in 16-year-old Annabelle Scott’s head aren’t God or signs she’s going mad—yet. Despite being a Mech Warrior recruit, she rebels against her post-Second Civil War society by not only refusing to kill Morgan, a boy she’s attracted to, but also helping him escape.
Annabelle’s commander gives her auditory implants and contact cams for an undercover assignment to investigate her corrupt police captain. Morgan hacks the implants to plead for her help in freeing his brother. As a pawn in a bigger game, can she find a way to help Morgan and discover the link between an attempted assassination of her adoptive mom, the geek institute, and her police captain without falling into a trap, being exiled and separated from family, or getting herself and those she cares about killed?
The Rebel Trap was written as a standalone story, but also follows Annabelle’s adventures from The Rebel Within.

My Review:
This book was a great dystopian novel. What would happen if men were not needed to reproduce? Where would that leave the women and the males? That is what this author created in his book. It was also interesting that the sixteen year old girls were the "soldiers" carrying out commands or following her heart? She knows that she should help Morgan, but she also has feelings for him. The author does a great job of letting the reader "hear" Annabelle's inner voices, and her conflicts. This was an interesting read and I would like to read the whole series. The ending was good, and left room for future books. I am giving this author a 4/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
