Find this review and associate book tour on my blog, Carlene Inspired, tomorrow 12/4.


Aeris is home with her dad for the summer after accepting a prestigious role as a concert violinist. She's hanging out with her old friends, spending time with her over-cautious father, and getting some seriously odd looks from the handsome Dr. Hunter Cayman. After a night out at the local nightclub, things are changing and quickly. What is behind the gates of the Phoenix Research Lab for Highly Contagious Diseases, why is her dad so against the company, and why does everything seem so familiar? As her curiosity increases, she finds herself learning about the mother she lost as a child and her father's desperation to protect her. It may not be enough to keep her away from Hunter though, something about him just keeps drawing her in despite the warnings and the secrets he seems to be hiding. What she finds will change everything.

I went into this book with the basic blurb every other reader gets, so I didn't expect anything when I opened up to the first chapter. The Butterfly Code stole my attention away from the very start. Not only are we immediately introduced to Aeris' old friends and the enigmatic Hunter Cayman with his flashing eyes, but Sue Wyshynski does an amazing job of setting the scene, the relationships, and giving you a glimpse of what's to come. You see, Hunter is older and her father has warned her to avoid his research lab at all costs, but Aeris seems to lose all common sense when it comes to him. I was obsessed as soon as I knew we had a forbidden relationship plot. Not only that, it's a completely new story line, because there is a scifi mix in this book. There's romance, action, suspense, and a twist you won't ever see coming. I loved the characters, every single one of them. Aeris is always curious, for a classic violinist she sure seems interested in adventure. She's a brave character whose POV is super entertaining to read from. I loved her thought process and her individuality. On the other hand, our two main men, Gage and Hunter, are super intriguing as well. Gage, one of Aeris' best friends, is the brooding type and his role in this book is so much more than just a friend. He's got quite a history, a huge secret, and I really liked his relationship with Aeris. Hunter is mysterious, dangerous, and about the hottest thing any of our characters have ever seen. The entire town seems to despise him, every woman lusts for him, and his attitude is that of a bad boy. He had a lot more depth to him that I expected him to and as the story grows he brings a lot to the table. He seemed to have new secrets after every page turn and even once I closed the book I felt like I had more to know about him. Every character is not what they seem and no plot line is ever what you are expecting as a reader.

I loved the use of symbolism in this book and the futuristic elements of transhumanism, that is the creation of superhumans. She successfully takes humanity into the future, mixing it with romance, drama, and action. Wyshynski's descriptions are vivid, everything we saw as the reader means something later on, from names to just small conversations between characters. The foreshadowing kept me curious, on my toes the entire time, and when the twists happened I was shocked to find it opposite of what I thought would happen. Everything flowed so well and at a swift pace. There was no over complication and I felt like this book could easily reach across many demographics.

I might have loved this book, can you tell? I have pulled away from the paranormal/scifi books I used to love, but this transhuman story might have pulled me right back in. This is a book that readers of all ages and all genre preferences could read and enjoy. I loved the well-developed characters, the realistic near-future story line, and the intrigue of the mystery that Aeris is so desperate to figure out. I cannot wait for a sequel and really hope this novel has the popularity it deserves.

Many thanks to Xpresso Book Tours and Sue Wyshynski for providing an ARC in exchange for my honest review. ( )

I absolutely loved this novel and am anxiously awaiting the sequel! The way the author writes is so compelling that I found myself wishing I had the time to read the entire book in one sitting. Some things were predictable, but there were still some surprising plot twists and the story was well crafted.

*I was given a free copy of this novel and voluntarily chose to review it.* ( )

Aeris has found the man of her dreams in Hunter who is like no other handsome, fast, strong and immortal, a product of the Genetic manipulation her mother was working so hard to reverse before her death. But then there are those who would do terrible things with the gifts that Hunter and the other Winterborn Survivors have and now Aeris has those gifts too. Hunter might have created a cure but can they keep Aeris safe long enough for it to work. A great start to a beautifully written series full of action, adventure and romance I look forward to reading more. ( )

Aeris Thorne is home for the summer to visit with old friends and her father before starting as a concert violinist in the fall when she meets Dr. Hunter Cayman. She is instantly drawn to him despite the fact her father dislikes him. But what is he studying at the Phoenix Research Lab? And how does his work connect with her mother's work and her murder? This story is full of mystery, suspense, and romance on top of some paranormal elements. Overall this story sucks you in and leaves you wanting more. ( )

This was well thought out and well written enough for me to get past the initial young mad love focus. It turned into a good story with action, good pace and mystery on a few levels.
I received this as a LibraryThing Member GiveAway. Thank you. ( )
