Along with turning sixteen comes that coveted little piece of plastic that screams FREEDOM like William Wallace never could. You remember, don't you?A driver's license!But Tor's first outing behind the wheel without her parents ends in a multiple mishap she could never have foreseen - and brings hunky college boy and junior government agent, Rick Turner, striding back into her life to save her road privileges. This time, he needs her sharp-thinking skills to assist him.Oh boy, oh boy - Tor's first, real, live, government agent-type assignment. To get close to a fellow student in her high school.Boring! But hey, this is Tor Maddox we're talking about. The girl who thinks on her feet (and in her size eight pointe shoes). The girl who finds trouble where none could possibly be found. The girl who can't help but get everyone around her in trouble when they try to help, much to her parents' chagrin.Tor's second adventure involves an issue straight off of the news screens - illegal immigration. No matter which side of the fence you're on, this is not an issue with a straight black or white answer. I have friends that immigrated here and spent years and thousands of dollars to do it in the legal manner. Then I know several people who were brought here by their parents when they were young and had no say in the matter, living life along the periphery with children now of their own - and living in fear of what will happen to their legal children if they are discovered as being here illegally. But then terrorists are known to use illegal immigration routes and team with coyotes, whose interests end with the money, to infiltrate the U.S. in order to wreak havoc. It can be an emotionally charged issue, one Tor finds herself facing when the grandfather of her dancing nemesis is shipped back to Mexico and in Tor's pursuits, finds herself crawling through a tunnel underneath the border.The story is again exciting and we get to see more of the interactions of high school life without it becoming too much of an angst-ridden hormonal mess. Tor inserts herself into the lives of the swim team, specifically Hamilton, in order to discover what it is Hamilton's dad has in play concerning what's happening across the border. In the process, her best friend Sasha's dance legs are ripped out from beneath him - quite literally - and he ends up spending most of this book in the hospital, which was a disappointment for me because he provided some necessary breaths of humor in book one. Tor's brother, Rody, continues to show how capable he is in trying to keep his sister out of trouble while doing a lot of CYA for her with the parents. And sparks continue to fly between Tor and Rick - which is a little difficult for me at times since he's twenty-one and she's barely sixteen. At least this problem is addressed and dealt with early on in the book, though the connection these two have made the ending rather nice. Just when you thought it was over, surprise!Plotting and pacing are again handled well. We follow along with Tor during her adventures, keeping the story moving along in showing mode instead of resorting to telling, which can be difficult to do in first person narration. There's a little more teen angst here than in the first one, but the more mature subject matter of dealing with illegal immigration kept it from devolving into fluff. I did find the characters of Hamilton and his dad to be a little extreme, falling into the caricature of bigoted redneck as very one-dimensional. Maybe I just haven't been exposed to such an extreme in real life, but it felt to me a bit overwrought with no balance or redeeming qualities. Only one or two minor editing errors revealed in this one.Content Warning: There are a few more and varied cuss words in this second outing, but probably much less than anything teens already hear in school. There's the whole lying to parents thing and using one's siblings and friends for CYA that rubs me a little the wrong way - then again, I'm a parent. :-) A potential relationship between a twenty-something and teenager is probably many girls' dreams, but it isn't gratuitous.Overall, another smart read for teens and adults. I give this one four stars.I was provided with a free copy of this novel in exchange for review and was not financially compensated for my opinion.

Horder Tor Maddox goes international with her next adventure, which has an added bonus for her: she even gets paid $500.00 per week!After appearing in court to save Tor and her driver's license, Rick (her "shining knight"), introduces Tor and her parents to the job. He describes it as an undercover watch at her school, which would have "no travel or danger involved." All Tor has to do is get to know a fellow student, who is the swimming and diving star!!With a little help from her friend, Sasha, she DOES get to meet him. He likes Tor, invites her to travel to Mexico with him and his Dad, and then a dangerous horseback ride on the beach leads Tor to the understanding and knowledge of this "job."Tor, being a teenager with a passion for justice, fights to correct a situation that is a very controversial topic of today. As she communicates with some Mexicans, she teaches us generosity and compassion.As a reader, I admire the absolute genuine response of Tor to the situation and her courage. I really liked how Liz Coley brought back the consistent friendship of Sasha and her brother's bond. And I am looking forward to Tor's next attempt at solving a current issue!

This was a serious page-turner. It had everything I love in a YA novel – a quick pace, characters I can relate to, and romance. Lots and lots of romance.This time Tor finds herself on an assignment that involves getting up close and personal with drop-dead gorgeous senior Hamilton Parker. Not to worry, though; Special Agent Rick still makes lots of appearances, being the all-around good guy (who just happens to be dreamy) that we got to know in UNLEASHED.I loved watching Tor navigate her way through a tangle of complex situations. She had to deal with everything from ballet auditions to exposing diabolical plots driven by racial discrimination. And of course, there was everybody’s favorite male ballerina: Sasha. Sweet, forgiving Sasha who Coley decides to really rough up this time around!EMBEDDED was another great read and I’m looking forward to Tor’s next adventure!
