When you’re born without a trace, no one knows you’re a weapon.

I lie for her.

I hunt for her.

I kill for her.

And above all, I betray my mission for her.

She doesn’t know why. She doesn’t care why.

I do.

Treason comes in many forms.

Love is one of them.

Our training taught me to be a sociopath. A machine. A pawn. Nothing more than a tool for a larger goal, without attachments or feelings.

Our teachers forgot one important detail:

Pawns shouldn’t have hearts.

Yet we do.

It turns out our emotions are our greatest weapon.

And I know exactly where mine are aimed.

The first in an all-new series by USA Today best-selling author Meli Raine.

My mind is blown, I don't know what to believe and I don't know who to trust, all I know is this book and the psychological warfare is intense. I am so invested at this point. I need more! More Kina, more Callum, more Glen, more more more!

I need to know if what I believe is correct or if I am being deceived as well.

I love Kina and her kindness and I hate that is being exploited as a weakness, I hope she can overcome and be allowed to be herself.

I love Callum, and I hope he is as good as what he seems. I hope he is truly a good guy. I hope he is what he seems and I really want things to work out the way I think they should! Ha don't we all, but seriously time to head to book 2 to see what's gonna happen.

Thrilling and psychologically all consuming.

This story has an interesting premise and an intertwined plot of good vs. evil. Its so well written that you feel the character's own sense of confusion at knowing who to trust.

This is my first book by Meli Raine and I can tell I am going to devour all three of the Stateless book! I love romantic suspense and this one has me hooked on Kina and Callum! Since this is the first book we really only get the background of the characters living at the Stateless compound. Kids are either born there or taken from families (with the parents usually murdered) around the age of four. The first book focuses on 3 students really, Callum, Kina and Gleen. Kina and Glenn are identical twins but deep down are so completely different, Kina is considered the weak student, the mule, because she has too many feelings while Glenn is the star student and a major manipulator. Callum is also a star student but he hides how he really feel and spends a lot of his energy protecting Kina. The big test at the end of their schooling is a Hunger Games style competition in the Woods, which really showed the true colors of the characters and cemented my hatred for Glenn! The end of the book has the three students back at the compound and I am eager to find out what happens next with them all!

Joe Arden and Andi Arndt are two of my favorite narrators so I jumped at the chance to listen to this series! They both did an amazing job bringing the characters to life! Anytime I read a book with an alpha take charge male I always hear Joe Arden's voice in my head so he was completely perfect for Callum! Andi Arndt has such a good range that she was wonderful voicing innocent Kina and sociopathic Glenn!

Let’s first stop and give a shout out the fantastic narrators Joe Arden and Andi Arndt for bringing the characters to life and keeping us engaged in the story. This book is targeted towards a younger crowed – not to say it’s bad as I enjoy those reads from time to time. This book didn’t feel like it should have ended yet more like we are in the middle of a book and its about to pick up pace. Overall a good read!

Stateless by Meli Raine is a romantic suspense that I listened to on audio narrated by Joe Arden and Andi Arndt. This is the first book in the Stateless Series.

This is the first book of Meli’s that I have read and it definitely won’t be my last. She pulled me in from the very first chapter and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next. I love the relationship between Kina and Callum. The book does end on a cliffhanger but that wasn’t a surprise since it’s the first book in the series. I can’t wait to dive into the next book Traceless to get more of Kina and Callum’s story.

Joe and Andi did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you like romantic suspense, military romance, or psychological thrillers.

I gave it 4 instead of 5 because there was no sex between the two so I don’t really consider this a romance at this point. There was very deep feelings which I’m sure will develop, and I understand the circumstances they were under in the story prevented sex. I believe this scenario exists today in similar forms. Most recently it’s become obvious that the liberals who try to undermine people’s belief in government, country & religion, those wanting to create a new non government country for the powerful to succeed in deciding all is so close to the powerful in this story. An amazing writer and narration by Arndt & Arden.

A very disturbing storyline that is based on somewhat truths
