As if time were the kind of thing you could run out of, as if it were measured into bowls that were handed to us at birth and if we ate too much or too fast or right before jumping into the water then our time would be lost, wasted, already spent.This ends the original Shatter Me trilogy, but Mafi wrote three more novels 4 years after the completion of the first trilogy. And even when you're ready to let go. When you're ready to break free. When you're ready to be brand-new. Loneliness is an old friend stand beside you in the mirror, looking you in the eye, challenging you to live your life without it.

But Juliette will never be free from her lethal touch. Or from Warner, who wants Juliette more than she ever thought possible. As Castle has vowed to help anyone with mutant abilities, he sets Warner free within the compound. Warner warns Juliette of his father’s plans. The following day, soldiers will round up all the civilians in the district and kill them. The hope is it will draw the resistance out to fight so they can be defeated. If those in Omega Point do not fight, the supreme commander knows no one else above ground will talk further about rebellion. One side effect of this is that throughout the book there are crossed out lines, as if Juliette is writing in a journal and crosses out things she initially wrote, but changed her mind. With a gloved hand to avoid her skin, Warner’s father pins Juliette against a wall by her throat. She believes he is going to kill her, but once he disarms her of her guns, he lets her go. He calls Warner in and tells him to shoot her. Instead, Warner points the gun at his father. His father recalls the 10 previous times Warner threatened to kill him. Warner’s father points his own gun at Juliette.

Warner: 19-year-old leader of Sector 45 in the Reestablishment, 5'9; shown as a very cold and manipulative person. Warner gradually changes into a more loving human being as the books progress. He has blond hair and green eyes and is considered inhumanly handsome. From the beginning of the series, he is desperately in love with Juliette, which for a while was an obsession. Juliette develops empathy for Warner, despite him seeming cold and ruthless, and asserts him as a normal human, despite his denials. He is known to always assume the worst of himself. He can touch Juliette without consequence.

Flawless, especially as he stands here among the dirt and destruction, surrounded by the bleakest colors this landscape has to offer. He's a vision of emerald and onyx, silhouetted in the sunlight in the most deceiving way. He could be glowing. That could be a halo around his head. This could be the world's way of making an example out of irony. Because Warner is beautiful in ways even Adam isn't.” In this exhilarating sequel to Shatter Me, Juliette has to make life-changing decisions between what she wants and what she thinks is right. Decisions that might involve choosing between her heart—and Adam's life. Juliette has been hiding within the safety of Omega Point, a bunker/training facility/mutant zone, for the past two weeks. Although at first relieved to learn that other mutants exist, she finds herself sinking into despair. The others have powers to heal, direct electrical currents or become invisible. Only she has skin that, when touched, can kill. The others inside the bunker fear her because she is deadly. Rebolini, Arianna (September 23, 2015).
